TSS visa holders can work in Australia in their nominated occupation for their approved sponsor for 1 to 4 years depending on which of the three streams they apply under.
Visa subclass 485
The Temporary Graduate visa (subclass 485) is for international students who have recently graduated from an Australian educational institution. It allows you to work in Australia temporarily after finishing your studies.
