<blockquote rel="caitlinplando">Hey guys. I just lodged my visa application on june 4. Embassy acknowledged that they have received it on june 6. Had medicals done days prior and results were submitted to dibp on the 9th. 12th was a holiday (independence day), plus the weekend. Do you think I'll be getting a visa decision within the next week? Subclass 572, diploma in nursing at TNQIT. I'm just so worried I might not make it on time as classes start july 7 and plane ticket prices are getting expensive by the day. Is it advisable to defer? Or should I wait a week or two more? Heeeelp.</blockquote>
Wow! That's quite a short time frame. It took me 13 days to get my visa last May. Have you informed the school about your concern? Kasi kung magagahol ka na talaga sa oras, the school will usually move you on their next intake. I read some of the posts here in the forum and sila rin mga a few days before their intake na grant ng visa. Good luck, sis! Cheers!
