自2012年3月24日起,澳洲正式实施学生签证审核新办法 Streamlined Visa Processing(简称SVP)。SVP可以解释为“简化签证审理计划”,旨在简化学生签证流程、加速签证审理。
SVP政策只针对申请澳大利亚高等教育:即573签证类别的学生, 包括本科以及本科打包课程、授课型硕士以及硕士打包课程。SVP不接受单独的Associate Degree副学位、Graduate Diploma研究 生文凭、Graduate Certificate研究生证书、Diploma and Advanced Diploma文凭和高级文凭。如果学生只申请、并注册了这类非学位课程,则不能通过SVP申请签证,只能按照普通的签证政策受理。
澳洲移民局公布的参与SVP政策的院校中,澳洲39所大学均在列。需要注意的是,在SVP新政下,申请澳洲的某所大学的本科或者硕士学位课程,若要配语言或桥梁课程,必须选择该大学在移民局清单上指定的合作院校。若申请院校不在SVP的清单上,则仍然按照中国学生的风险等级 Assessment Level 3,即三级来审核。
如果学生申请的院校在上述清单中,申请签证时不看国籍,统一下调至移民局规定的最低风险:学生申请参与SVP的院校,其签证申请可以视作类似于Assessment Level 1学生签证风险评估等级一级,也就是最低风险等级来审核,签证流程更方便,签证材料更简单,签证周期更短。
在递交签证时,符合相关条件的学生签证申请人,只需提供一份经济担保声明书,声明自己或经济担保人有足够资金来支付申请人在澳期间的学费、生活费和旅行费用等即可。除非签证官有要求,否则申请人无需提供任何经济担保证明材料。
SVP新政的实施,意味着申请高等教育类别的学生签证,将无须提供大量的文书资料做证明,加快了签证审理的速度。而且,移民局还取消了担保金的规定,学生只需要在接受大学录取通知时,签署资金能力证明,并宣誓即可。
需要注意的是,这并不意味着移民局放松了对学生资金、语言能力的要求,而是移民局把这部分审核转移给学校,由学生申请的学校与学校认可的留学服务机构,一起来审核学生的资金和语言是否符合赴澳就读的要求。
参与SVP的学校将公布各自的“国际学生财务声明表”,在学生正式接受该校录取通知书之前填写,作为学校审核学生资金状况的依据,并以此判断是否向学生发放注册确认函。而学校认可的留学代理机构,也需要帮助学校收集学生的财务相关信息,填写留学代理机构评估声明,以帮助学校做出判断。这些信息,在最新公布的 573学生签证SVP申请材料清单中,也得以明确体现。
