Australian working permit from within Australia
by: Birgit

Hi Kamal,

As explained on the page about Australian working visas, there are several classes of working permits that you can apply for from within Australia.

But it's not as easy as you hope. You do not get a working permit just because you found a job and you do not get work permit just because you want to work here.

You only get a working visa for Australia if you fulfil the requirements for a specific visa, for example possessing needed skills and qualifications and finding an employer willing to sponsor you.

The different requirements for all the different visas are stated in detail on the immigration/visa website of the government, so please read the page about Australian working visas and then follow the link to the government website to find out more.
