The Temporary Graduate (Subclass 485) visa provides students who recently graduated from an Australian educational institution the opportunity to live and work in Australia temporarily, following the completion of their studies.

The streams under this visa, that is, the Graduate Work visa and the Post Study Work visa were renamed on July 1 this year to avoid confusion.
