Can I work on this visa?
No. The visitor visa is specifically for tourism, visiting family, or short-term business activities — working on this visa is a serious breach of its conditions.
How long can I stay?
It depends on the period granted when it's approved — generally between 3 and 12 months per stay, depending on your situation and what you apply for.
Can I switch to a visa that lets me work while already in Australia?
In some cases you can apply for another visa from within Australia, but it's not automatic or guaranteed — it depends on your particular situation and your visitor visa conditions.
