Capabilities

Tools 7

check_88_day_area

Whether work in an industry at an Australian postcode is on the Department of Home Affairs' specified work lists for a second or third working holiday visa (the 88 or 179 days), for subclass 417 or 462. Checks every industry unless one is given.

Discovered
get_country_profile

Australian visa figures for one nationality: which visitor visa its passport uses, whether it can get a working holiday visa (and the age limit), the Department of Home Affairs refusal rate for applicants of that nationality compared with all nationalities, and processing times by visa.

Discovered
get_policy_updates

Tern's dated record of changes to Australian visa policy, newest first, each marked as proposed, announced, in effect or resolved. Filter by visa subclass.

Discovered
get_processing_times

How long the Department of Home Affairs is taking to decide applications for an Australian visa subclass: the days within which 25%, 50%, 75% and 90% of recent applications were decided, optionally for one nationality (split by applying from inside or outside Australia).

Discovered
get_tern_services

What Tern offers for each Australian visa it handles: the products and partner visa plans, what each includes, and Tern's current service fees in AUD (separate from the government charge). Filter by visa subclass. The only source to quote Tern's prices from.

Discovered
get_visa_fees

The Department of Home Affairs' current visa application charges for an Australian visa subclass, per stream: main applicant, each additional adult and child, and any lower charges for particular passports. Amounts in AUD. These are government charges, not Tern's fees.

Discovered
get_whm_cap_status

Whether each Work and Holiday visa (subclass 462) country cap is open, paused, closed or allocated by ballot, when that was last checked, and the recent openings Tern has detected. Subclass 417 countries have no per-country cap.
