Education Visa (418)-Can spouse work?
Hello,
New to this forum, hope someone can help.
I've applied for a post-doctoral research job in Aus, been informed that I'm shortlisted and that if if I end up being offered the job, the university would sponsor me for an Education Visa (subclass 418), which would allow me temporary residence for the 3-year duration of my contract.
I'm married, & can't seem to find any definite information if my husband would have full working rights if he came with me? I know he would be listed on my visa, but not sure if that just means he can come & stay, but not work, or if he'll be able to work too.
Many thanks for any information!
Anna

I think you need a 475 to work, not 100% but thats what I have been given which enables my wife to work when she finally arrives on my visa
U do need to check, try these sites :

or the Austalian Immigration Authority
Hope this helps

Hi Anna,
If you post your question again on the Aus immigration forum on this site you may will get an answer. A lot of agents answer queries like yours, on that forum.

Sorry!
Sorry - posted in the wrong forum!! I kept checking back in the Immigration section & wondering if my question had been censored for some reason - duh!
Apologies for being such a muppet.
