@Jamie *****
there is only 60 days unless it's a longer term visa. The other 30 is by extension at the end.

@Peter ***************
technically yes, that's correct: but I'd have thought he means once living on the 12 month extensions.

Retirement visa must do the 90 day

Yes you need a re entry. Sometimes there may ve issues with this on an Ed Visa as you are supposed to be studying, not travelling.

I'd get a letter from your school saying you have permission.

@Diana ******
if you wish to pay extra yes on exchange.

Much easier to have an account here, and many processes require you to have one if you stay here longer term- legal, visa, DD etc

You can dip into your Visa account instead for this but not immediatly before or after Visa renewal and not below 400K at anytime

You'll need money here anyway of course: some use their ' visa' account for their monthly expenses, others set up a seperate account, but the latter has nothing to do with visas if you have the 800K in the other

Go along to Immigration locally and ask for their latest list. It may differ slightly region to region but best to have this from the horses mouth

If in doubt, buy a visa in your country before you leave. It's inexpensive and easy.
