    Hello uli sa lahat. Patulong naman please pa’no ko iapply ng dependent visa yung spouse ko under my student visa.

    1. Kapag ba yung student visa ko was processed by an agency, dapat yung sa kanya should be processed by the same agency? Or pwedeng sariling sikap na lang namin?

    2. When my SV application was lodged, walang proof of financial capacity na hiningi. Same ba yun pagdating sa kanya? Or discretion ng IO? Or mandatory yung proof pagdating sa dependents?

    3. If pwedeng kami lang mag-apply on our own, do we just log-in to his Immiaccount? Anong option po doon?

    Thanks po in advance sa mga sasagot!

    @ayarachiel ask your agent if he submitted your bank statement and did you check in the document checklist tool if you need to show evidence of financial requirement? You can refer to this link https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/visas/web-evidentiary-tool

    Good day, I want to know your insights about diploma of leadership management & advanced diploma of leadership management. I finished BS Accounting Technology last April 2017 and currently working for a year and 3 months (being a contract of service and recently appointed as regular). I am planning to take BS Accounting in Sydney and will be living with my relative's house. My only problem is the financial matter as I can't be sponsored by my relative so I am deciding on whether taking up the diploma level first so that I can save money for Bachelor degree and take it when I have enough money to support my studies or go with the Bachelor degree first. Any advice from you guys?

    *sorry for my poor grammar/sentence construction....

    I sent an updated resume on ENZ for initial assessment. Based on them, it turns out that the diploma and advanced diploma of LM suits me.... I am just curious if this course can lead to temporary graduate visa or PR rather......

    I hope someone in this forum is taking up or already finished on this course.

    @MsJean hi ok naman yung plan mo to take diploma of leadership and management and advance diploma habang nagsasave for tuition sa uni the only challenge is walang pathway to PR yan that i can think of. With regards naman sa temporary graduate visa as long as mameet mo yung requirement ng visa 485 you can apply naman

    @MsJean mahirap ang pathway ng diploma in leadership management and wala po siyang graduate visa, not unless magenroll ka for bachelors degree which is by far kelangan pag ipunan kc very much po expensive pag uni ka na mag study. try to talk with enz kung may clear pathway ang course na yan leading to pr, madami akong kakilala dito who’s taking the same course and struggle talaga. Just make sure ung kukunin nyong course is totoong may pathway to pr otherwise renew kayo ng renew for student visa. I hope my opinion helps ☺️

    @allea12 nakalagay sa rules upon visa grant na pwede lang magwork pag start ng class. Best not to violate that.
