    @camillegomezz No, typical time to apply is 3 months before. In my case kasi I had to apply early because I wanted to have my medicals done abroad. You should have applied for your school way before kasi it's possible na matagal ang processing both ng school admission and student visa (you need to secure your eCOE to apply for student visa). I'm not sure if you can attend classes without your student visa (if ever maaga ang start ng classes). Are you entering AU on a tourist visa?

    Hello! If nanghingi ba ng additional documents/nag verify ng document ang embassy, next step na nun is visa grant? Cause yung case ko pinapa adjust lang yung date ng OSHC ko, though di ko din gets cause ang start ng school ko is july 2 until august 31, 2019 and ang OSHC ko is july 2 - november 1, 2019 pero pinaadjust parin nila. Thanks sa sasagot!

    @abbygailmbn Hi, you should contact your OSHC to adjust your coverage date until October 31, 2019 and submit the new OSHC policy to DHA. Tell your OSHC provider that DHA calculated a different end date of the course. With a July intake, your visa will end two months after your studies, which is on Oct 31. DHA is strict when it comes to dates so your OSHC should match the end of your studies+2 months extension, because that's the end date of your student visa.

    @athelene so kahit 1 day na extension (Nov 1), hindi pwede? Need talaga na dun sa calculated date nila na Oct 31? Thank you so much! ❤️ Yes pinakausap ko na sa agent ko yung OSHC provider ko. :)

    @abbygailmbn Since they didn't grant the visa directly, I assume hindi pwede kahit one day difference sa dates. But minor issue lng naman yan, so I think it'll be fine. :) Good luck!

    @abbygailmbn maybe because your OSHC should start way before your class starts because it is expected that you arrive before the start of your classes. At least 2 weeks before.

    Good morning everyone, I am anew in this forum and nalaman ko lang siya because of a friend. Please please help me, I just got refused with student visa applicatiion- GTE reasons ganun. I am single, 27 years old and working in a bank. I applied for Business Analytics however, sabi ni case officer di daw naexplain ng maayos yung pathway ko. I applied with IDP before but nahirapan ako with their appointments esp nalipat sila sa ortigas and since i am from manila, nakaattend ako ng ams event pero sa kanila ako nagkaron ng problem with this application. Akala ko everything will be okay, no show money, streamlined daw ako pero I got refused :( please guys helps me, should I reapply agad agad and magDIY nalang ako? Though may nagrerefer sa akin sa kokos and may friend ako naapprove siya dun daw ng automatic. Can this really happen? Wala din daw siya show money and chineck daw nila yung GTE letter niya before visa processing. Yung sa akin with ams kasi di nila binasa or inedit yata, sinubmit ko lang tapos kung di ako nagfollow up, di ako mababalikan. Please po tulungan niyo ako I aim to leave this July :( what should I do now?

    @Monique2018 Hello girl! Under AECC yung application ko, and they were really helpful. A few questions:

    - GTE statement nalang ba problematic sayo (all other docs like COE, OSHC, health assessment ok na)?
    - Which uni are you trying to get into?

    Pwede mo ko PM :)
