OSHC duration rules for Australian student visas

Australian OSHC duration rules per student visa requirements. 10+ months ending Nov-Dec: cover to 15 March; ending Jan-Oct: course + 2 months; <10 months: course + 1 month; max 6 years. Special rules for postgrad research, primary school, packaged courses.

OSHC duration is set by Australian government visa requirements based on course duration. Edvisor applies these rules by default when adding insurance to quotes, sales, and bookings.

Agents can override or manually extend OSHC duration when packaging multiple courses.

Why this matters

Meeting these duration requirements is required for visa compliance. OSHC durations shorter than these rules may lead to visa application issues.
