  @danyan2001us kuya dan pano po un? Mapapaaga magend ung coverage ng insurance ko? Or I have to pay for extension ng coverage nla?

  your insurance provider will adjust you timeframe and I believe this is a minimal amount for you will not be coming to australia months before your initial date of entry as per your OSHC prescribed....ilang days or weeks ba ang advanced ng arrival mo?

  Hi! Still waiting padin kami ng offer letter from Holmesglen. Kanina tumawag pero pag bigay samin ng phone ng kasambahay busy na. Tanong ko lang kung ano dapat gawin namin and kung tatawag pa kaya sila ulit? May naka experience na ba ng ganito? Thank you po sa mga sasagot.

  Well the reason why my application last June was refused is because I lodged it onshore meaning nagsubmit ako ng application sa immigration's office while in Sydney which is hindi pala pwede since assessment lvl 3 ang Philippines for subclass 572. I'm not sure if they see it as a desperation on my part and if it is a red flag for them. I have a question po Kuya Dan. Should I ask my agency Fortrust to advise the school just in case wala pa ding decision upon start of my course or kelangan ako ang gumawa nun? Also, yung health insurance ko is nakadate ng January 15 but I have this feeling na hindi naman ako dadating ng date na yun. Should I inform din yung OSHC provider ko before January 15?
  
  Thank you in advance po!

  Another question pa pala. Sorry guys ang kulit ko lang. Magrereflect ba sa immi account kung saka sakaling pinoprocess na nila yung application? I just opened my immi account. Ang last record dun is yung refusal ng visa application ko last June pero wala pang kasunod. Naisip ko lang baka wala pang CO na nakaassign sa new application ko kaya wala pa dun. My application was acknowledged last December 11.

  Thank you in advance po!

  so meaning you are still in tourist visa when you applied for student visa onshore..am i right? if that is the case, then i think you can't apply for student visa while on a tourist visa...you need to be offshore when you apply for this visa....

  you can channel your concern to your agency....yes everything will be disclosed in your immiaccount...and you can even withdraw/cancel your application there if you want to

  @mcc_03 Hello! It usually takes 2-3weeks. But sometimes in other cases, it takes longer than 3 weeks.

  Just always be ready for any call from your case officer... That's a crucial part to 572 applicants

  hello po sa inyo, im here again and again i would like to seek your advice if okay lang po sana dito sa mga concerns ko. sorry po kasi DIY po ang application ko.
  
  - im planning to apply again within this month hihintay ko lang ang mga docs ng sponsor (aunt) ko sa autralia afterwards ill immediatrely lodge it since april ung magiging intake ko.
  - question 1 : is it okay if after na lang akong mgmedical if iadvice na ng CO ko, i mean aftr ko ng mg lodge?
  - question 2: since its my second application coz i was denied last yr due to GTE issues. would they still question my 2nd course there, kasi nung una aged care ung course ko sana even hrm grad ako (it was my sponsors choice tbh), and now i will take na naman cert 2-4,diploma in business which is somehow related na din. how can i convince again my co that i am genuine student.?its hard
  -question 3: sino po dito or may kakilala na ang school ay bridge business college?
  - question 4: may mga docs paba na kaylangan kong iprovide aside sa the usual na binigay ko noun consdreng na 2nd application ko na to.
  
  i really want to seek the assistance of agency however it was my sponsor's decsion na hinde na daw, i dnt want to insist kasi baka mag argue pa kami ng aunt ko. i really dont know but deep inside of me im losing hope but i really prayed that i can get through with this by Gods grace.
  
  
  thank you! God bless!

  @patientlywaiting1994 hello! dont lose hope and never give up! I was also denied a visa application lastyear due to GTE reasons din. Childcare and knuha ko but i was refused kse daw pharmacist ako dto. This time, certificate in business and diploma in leadership and management na kukunin ko. I hope to pay my tuition fees by next week na para mkpaglodge ako. One of my mistakes lastyear was when i was asked about the subjects, kulelat sagot ko kse dko nmn tlga tinignan mga subjects ng childcare. This time, I printed out na yung mga subjects ng course na kukunin ko this year. Nag sarili din ako lastyear ng application. pro ngayon nag agency ako for visa assistance lang. kse sariling sikap pa din ako sa pghahanap ng schools and course. Kaya natin 'to!
  
  By the way, san city ka and what school?
  
  Prayers can move mountains!

  @Angel1014 thank you ha, as much as i want na mag agency ako di tlga ako pnyagan ng aunt ko kasi mejo may kmahalan kasi ung mga schools na affiliated ng mga agency and ung school na napili ng aunt ko walang affiliated na agency kaya DIY ang peg. sa sydney ako ung school ko though hinde pa nbyaran pero may offer letter na which is bridge business college. ang hirap kasi ijustify bka may masabe na nmn CO ko, iquestion na nmn ako kasi di ako consistent sa mga course ko im having a hard time talaga dito.

  Yes ganun nga ang nangyari kung bakit po narefuse ako last June kasi nakatourist visa ako then dun ako nagapply for my student visa. Akala ko ksi pwede but now andito na ako sa pinas po. Dito na ako nagrelodge ulit. And wish ko lang talaga makahabol ako sa feb1 intake ko and sana wala ng interview but I doubt din. Think positive na lang talaga.
