The short answer is yes, but it comes with specific conditions. If you are an overseas student who has arrived in Australia to pursue your studies and are enrolled in a course that lasts more than 6 months, you are generally considered an Australian resident for tax purposes. This status affects how you are taxed and what you need to declare in your TFN declaration to your employer.
