AMACS - Student Guardian Visa

The Student Guardian visa (subclass 580) is a temporary visa for a person who needs to come to Australia to provide care and support for:

a student visa holder who is younger than 18 years of age
a student visa holder who is older than 18 years of age and who needs such care and support due to exceptional circumstances.

You might be able to get this visa if you:

are a parent or person who has legal custody of the nominating student visa holder, or a relative of the student visa holder who is nominated by the student's parent or guardian
are at least 21 years of age
are able to provide accommodation, general welfare and other support to the student visa holder
are a genuine temporary entrant
meet financial requirements
meet health, character and other requirements.

Your Student Guardian visa is valid for the same length of time as the student visa of the student for whom you are guardian or until the student turns 18 years of age.
