@pepper good on you, na pwede kang ma-late ng further 2 weeks, ako no option beyond the 18th.

maliboo

@pepper yey shopping!haha!un ang highlight eh nuh?

thorVIRUS

@Rhina13 thanks! kaya lang late ko na nabasa dapat pala kahapon tumawag ako. pero try ko pa rin mamaya tumawag sa kanila.

Guys meron ba sa inyo nakareceive ng docs ng saturday? Umaasa pa rin kasi ako baka umabot pa. Until 18 lang binigay sakin na extension and I'll try to request for a later date kasi naman 3days lang yun from 15 to 18.

@heyitscharmlalalala ah ok. thanks for posting. I will also email IDP about this. If nothing happens. I think we just have to defer nalang talaga. Not much we can do. 🙂

@pepper ambivalent ako ngayon. I've given up all hope, but I still have a little over 6 hours to be hopeful. 🙂

thorVIRUS

@cookie18 di ba Chisholm ka din? Gano katagal magreply sayo school? Balak ko kasi humirit ng another extension kahit sana 22 lang. Pareho kasi tayong until 18 lang ang binigay. Medyo matagal sila magreply sakin e.

thorVIRUS

@KG2 up to 29 ka pa dba? Bat magdedefer ka na bro?

@thorVIRUS when i first asked about late commencement, nagreply sila agad. pero nung nagemail ako about further extension, wala ng reply. i dont think may options pa for that kasi last time ito yung statement dun sa email nila nung 05 July.

Please be aware that if you arrive any later than Thursday 18 July, you will not be granted admission into this course and you will have to defer to next available intake.

@maliboo - Korek! hahaha distress naman kahit papano at magpa-parlor na din, kasi sobrang tension sobra ang pag-aantay and am not even over yet :-S

KG2

@thorVIRUS - 22 siguro ako mag dedefer, I still have to close my bank account if the grant arrives. usually yung bank dapat i-inform ko pa dapat kasi dollar account, wala silang dollar na stock. and a lot of prepping also. I still dont have a place to stay yet. So sana I was hoping I'd be granted a VISA 2 weeks prior sa commencement para ma iron out ko ang mga dapat asikasuhin.

heyitscharmlalalala

@maliboo i think feb ung next intake. But I still have to ask IDP if I can withdraw and get a full refund pra mg.bachelors nlng ako sa feb hehee

heyitscharmlalalala

@KG2 may pag-asa ka pa! I think mga medicals na n.upload nung May at n.refer ang inassess na ngaun ng Global Health/MOC. Kasi kay @payatot April ata n.upload ung medresult nya sa Global Health.

@pepper siguro mag papa parlor din ako. nababading ako sa DIAC. 😉

@thorVIRUS @cookie18

Eto ung email ng Chisholm sakin. They'll reply within 3-5 business days.

Please find attached late arrival letter.

Please be aware that if you arrive any later than Monday 15 July 2013 you will not be granted admission into this program and you will have to defer to next available intake.

Unfortunately the Nursing teaching department will not accept any students to commence after the above date..

Kaya di na talaga ako mkapagextend. Huhuu

pepper

@KG2 - kailangan talaga nating lahat magpa-parlor after the tension 😃

hinde biro ang pinagdadaanan natin dito..

chilax chilax after ng visa grant, shopping & pampering before going to the land down under para din makatipid at di na tayo bibili dun kasi mas mahal at pag ininterview din tayo dun ng immigration officer, eh medyo maaliwalas ang ating mukha...

maliboo

@pepper I know how you feel let's retail therapy hahaha!it's friday everyone!then weekend na!lalthough,halfday dn ata ang DIAC pag saturday nadispatch ung visa ng mom ko dati saturday eh 🙂

pepper

@maliboo - angel ka talaga sa akin, lumiliwanag ang buhay ko 😃

sana nga bukas bigay na nila ang visa grant ko.... kasi hanggan ngayon yung iffinalise yung visa ko then bukas yun ipapadala..assuming lang....

KG2

@maliboo retail therapy? ang gastos naman. mag yoga nalang kayo.LOL. ako pag di ako na grant maglalagay ako nang punching bag sa bahay. hahaha.

@pepper LOL. oo nga naman. nanotice ko last week nang June ang daming naapprove. ngayon biglang bumagal. although marami din naman applicant na di nagpa member dito. we can still see the bigger picture dito.

@heyitscharmlalalala you are right. thanks for uplifting my spirits. hehe. nag reply naba IDP sayo? busy din yata ang IDP sa mga queries nang applicants ngayon and busy din ata sila sa predeparture orientation.

thorVIRUS

@cookie18 @heyitscharmlalalala nagrequest ako ng another extension. Nagreply naman agad sila kanina.

The international office will contact the course coordinator and request permission on your behalf for a later arrival date. Natalie will be in touch soon.

Sana pumayag sila at sana magkaresult na.

thorVIRUS

@KG2 pwede pala agad iclose yung bank account once magrant na? Sa UK kasi 3months dapat intact ang bank. Twice na din kasi kami nagapply ng student visa sa uk, denied. Kaya tinry namin tong OZ, kasi sabi nila mas okay naman daw. Sana nga, still hoping and praying maging okay lahat. Kaya pa yang sayo may 2 weeks ka pa.

heyitscharmlalalala

@KG2 nagreply na sakin ang IDP. They also sent an email to the embassy.

Here's the reply from the embassy

Regarding the visa application we do ask that noting that this is AL 3 student cases (subject to 90 days DIAC Global Service standard) that you do allow reasonable time to enable such visas to be processed in accordance with our service standards (especially during peak student intake period), Whilst we will endeavour to finalise this case as quickly as possible, I cannot guarantee this will be done by end of July.

Advise nila is to defer.

I also asked about changing my course from Diploma to Bachelors... they told me that it's a high risk of not getting a full refund. I'm worried about not getting a full refund at forfeited pa ung application and courier fee. Start from scratch talaga. I decided to just defer my application.

Waiting for IDP's reply on how to go about the deferment process.
