Graduates from South Sudan seeking post-study work visas often explore options abroad, as domestic opportunities are limited. Popular destinations include the UK, Australia, Canada, and the US, each offering specific visa pathways for international students.
The UK’s Graduate Route allows a two-year stay (three for PhD holders) for work without sponsorship. Australia’s Temporary Graduate Visa (subclass 485) offers up to four years, depending on qualifications. Canada’s Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) provides up to three years. The US Optional Practical Training (OPT) permits 12 months, extendable for STEM graduates. Research each country’s eligibility criteria, application timelines, and required documentation for a smooth transition.
