After completing my masters, can I apply for a PR program in Australia?

Yes, you can apply for permanent residency (PR) in Australia after completing your master's, but it requires meeting specific criteria.

Typically, you would:
- First apply for the Temporary Graduate Visa (subclass 485) to gain local work experience.
- Then pursue skilled migration visas such as the Skilled Independent Visa (subclass 189), Skilled Nominated Visa (subclass 190), or Skilled Work Regional Visa (subclass 491).

Your chances improve if your master's is in a field on Australia's Skilled Occupation List. You'll also need to meet requirements for qualifications, work experience, age, English proficiency, and points, plus obtain a positive skills assessment. Employer sponsorship is another possible pathway.
