Does Voluntary Internship Count Toward the 48-Hour Work Limit for Subclass 500 Visa Holders?

Hi! I’m so grateful to have been accepted into the McCusker internship it’s such an incredible opportunity. As an international student, I rely on paid work to support myself, so I’m currently balancing three part-time jobs alongside my studies.

I wanted to check does the McCusker internship count toward the 48-hour fortnightly work limit that international students are subject to? The placement requires 100 hours to complete, and I want to make sure I stay fully compliant with my visa conditions while managing everything.
