<blockquote rel="eiwoks_lex">Hi everyone. Congrats sa mga visa grant recently. Question lang, I just found out na September mageend ang class for my course extended to November. Sa CoE ko, hanggang December 30 ang nakasulat then ang expiry ng student visa ko is March 15 2017. I have plans to apply sa Uni pagkatapos ng diploma ko. My question is, kapag ba natapos na yung diploma ko, wala na ba akong work rights kahit valid pa yung visa ko? Or same limitations will apply? Or I can work full time habang naghihintay ng decision pag nagapply ng ako ng Uni? Thanks po in advance. </blockquote>You might be asked why you have such a long break (a total of 6 months oct to march 2017... Not the normal case though)

Question lang po for preparation sa ramdom interview.Nabasa ko sa isang topic dito sa forum shinare nia yung interview questions sa knya and there is this part na tinanong xa kung ilang hours xa magstudy in a week. Tinanong ko to sa agent ko I actually requested for detailed letter of offer if possible where indicates the timetable, schedule and so on. Pero sagot saken ni agent not possible kasi kahit saang school daw it depends kasi. sa orientation day don palang makakakuha ng subjects but as per rule I have to study full time. Meron bang standard hours a week ang full time student. If ever kasing itanong saken un ndi ko alam isasagot ko.

@james007 hey! Halos same nangyari satin! I Lodge mine, 1st week ng Sept.. Sept 21st ata intake ko that time (2015). Nareceive daw ng agency ko yung acknowledgement email 2nd week ng Sept. Few days before my intake. Ako na mismo tumawag sa hotline number nila, just to make sure... Same info naman nakuha ko kung kelan na receive ng immigration application ko.. 2x pa nga ako nagpabook nun just in case Bigla Lumabas result Pero hanggang nung day ng orientation ko, wala pa din..Inextend namin sa school, binigyan ako ng school until Oct 1st ata Yun, Pero hindi pa din Lumabas result.. Mid November nag email embassy sa agency ko sabi na transfer application ko sa Indonesia..at first akala ng agency ko baka nag ka problema ako sa Indonesia nung nag visit ako dun, kasi Isa Yun sa nga bansa na nilagay ko sa application form ko. Pero wala naman ako naging problema nun e, tapos nung Tinanong namin yung c/o bases in Indonesia, sabi samin natransfer application ko kasi may kilala ako personal na immigration officer dito satin sa Manila. Since Fino forward sakin ng agency ko yung email exchanges nila, Dec 1, nag lakas loob ako I email directly yung c/o ko sa Indonesia.. Kasi ang Tagal na e, a Yun biglang sabi sakin November 27 ata yun inemail na daw ako sa resullta e wala naman ako nareceive, tapos Naka attach daw yung "grant" letter. Ayun, pag open ko, visa grant =))) walang, phone interview, show money o kung anu pa man =))) wag kayo Matatakot na mag followup kung Lagpas na sa processing time frame... Ako nun halos araw araw ako natawag sa immigration.kasi sa agency Alam ko Madami sila clients at Yun nga baka di nila narereceive o na pupunta sa ibang folder nila, like junk or spam mail...

james007

@cadillac hi, thanks sa info. Wala kasi ako number ng embassy or immigration, ako naman first time ko mag'apply ng visa. Pwede kaya akong pumunta sa office nila or tatawagan ko nalang? Wala kasi akong makitang contact details sa website ng embassy or immigration eh. Tapos ang sinabi pa sakin nung agent sa fortrust baka daw kasi ma'deny kapag kinulit. Ano kaya magandang gawin?

cadillac

@james007 same tayo, first time ko lang din.. Tawagan mo na lang kasi kung puntahan mo, same info lang naman makukuha mo..eto yung number na tinatawagan ko dati 757 8100.. Parang call center nila yan.. Sabi kasi sakin na kakilala ko na immigration officer, wala na sila direct number Matagal na.. Kaya yang tinatawagan ko mga agents lang din yan,so hindi yan makakaapekto sa resullta ng visa application.. Pag tumawag ka, tapos same info nakuha mo dun sa agent kung kelan nareceive yung application mo ng embassy, antay ka na lang.. Kasi may nabasa ako sa ibang forum tumatagal talaga minsan yung application e.. Yung Akin nga o, halos 3mos.. Importante nareceive ng embassy application mo, Yun yung I verify mo na lang tapos antay antay ka na lang.. San school mo? Same kasi tayo e,sa Monday na ko..

james007

@cadillac hi..i'm also enrolling at western sydney university, intake is April 4..i have a question lang, <b>how did you pay your tuition fee? </b>two options are via western union and credit card so I chose western union. pero, when i went to the bank, dala ko yong payment instruction, sabi ng manager na dapat may dollar account? or he suggested na mag wire transfer thru other western union agent. I'm so down kase i was expecting na smooth flow na ang payment transaction ko but knowing this, parang sad ulit ako..hehe...

cadillac

@james007 hey sorry di ko gets Tol. Ahaha.. Paliin mo lang yung option to speak with a live representative. Ganun lang ginagawa ko to know the latest status nung application ko dati e.anong VLN Pala? Hahaha

cadillac
