Hi po sa lahat .. I just got refused last july 15 due to GTE. Hnd daw po convinced co ko n we're planning to stay temporarily sa oz and kesyo d daw related course ko nung college s course n kkunin ko. Tpos d daw sha convinced n I'll finish my course.

Ang question ko po.. Is it worth it to relodge our application? Anu po dpt ko gwin or sbhin to convince the co n I'm a genuine student. Ang advise po ng agent ko is to make a longer and more direct to the point statement of purpose. Anu po s tingin nyo? I would really appreciate any advice.

Meron po b dto nn refuse n bec of GTE tpos nag relodge tpos n approve? Thank u po

    Hi patty, we've faced hurdles of a different sort, but if you don't lodge an appeal, then magiging final na nga ang refusal ng visa mo. Just focus on making a strong counter argument. Good luck. I know its a difficult time.

    As for me naman, my CO called me suggesting I withdraw my application otherwise they'll decline it. As for the reason mentioned to me, it was because I didn't meet the year 11 requirement, since I only had 7 months of studying Chinese language in Taiwan. I had asked if it was possible to take a 5 months cert course from tesda to add it all but she said "No.. kailangan talaga na 1 year straight in one course and one education provider" now, my question... if I upgrade my visa application to SVP since I got an offer letter from University of Canberra which is a pathway partner of the VET school I applied in.... will this issue still arise? Ang hnd ko lang kc mainitindihan, bakit kailangan year 11 for visa application especially when the VET course only requires year 10 holder. Medyo unfair lang ng feeling...

    Another question, if I withdraw the application will I be able to get the refund from the school (the downpayment), or if I appeal how long is the duration for someone to make an appeal and what would my chances be?

    Hi sis. Thank u po sa advice. Pwde po b i appeal un? I dont know if tama po ung pgkk intindi ko kc nklagay po is "There is no right of merits review for this decision." Ang sbi lng po sakin ng agent ko is mag relodge daw po kmi. Ang pinapagawa po nya sakin bagong statement of purpose pero prang ssagutin ko po ung mga points and reason ng co kung bkit ako nrefuse.. Like what u've said po..strong counter argument. :-) do u think po kelngan ko ng lawyer o hnd npo? Thank u

    @Pattycorky Sorry for the super late reply!!! Surprisingly, shocked din yung school ko but it's because they said hnd daw 1 year yung course certificate ko from my school in Taiwan, sb ng CO dapat daw 1 year... Kulang ako ng 5 months, hnd daw pwede sb ng superior nya kc inask na nya. They gave me time and chance to withdraw buti nlng my school agreed to refund my tuition deposit since suggested by the embassy yung withdrawal ko. The CO was nice enough to keep in touch with me all through out the process, mabait naman yung CO ko, yung superior lang nya kc... She also advised me that I may re-apply again and better that it's withdrawn para daw walang negative record in my visa history sa Australian Embassy.

    Hi patty, i was also refused once with my first application. But the reason was insufficient financial support. Sabi ng agent ko (IDP), your course should be related to your work or career. Tapos, enough yung support esp. may dependent ka..

    So, right now im reapplying again and i just had a phone interview. And daming tinanong sakin! Im still waiting for the results..

    Think positive!!
