    Hello mga kapatid. Been reading all your thoughts and suggestions re Student Visa. Tanong ko lang po, nag apply po kasi kami ng wife ko, ako primary applicant, VET subclass 572, may coe and medical na. And nag lodge na rin ng visa app sa VIA, tumawag na rin embasssy for interview. Sajuly 10, 2014 na orientation and enrolment(The HIlls College – Baulkham Hills College, Sydney). Ang kaso wala pa po ako updates/message from the Embassy. Nag usap kami wife ko na hintayin namin result til end of June kasi mahirap naman paspasan po ang preparation namin sakali magrant visa ng July. Pwede po kaya ipostpone or baguhin yung date ng pasok, then gawin po next year pinaka maagang intake na lang po(february 2015 po yata ang pinaka maaga) ? Thank you po sa inyo :)

    @jinjerald ...bro you have these options:

    1st yong sabi mo na to postpone yong intaek...after all it's up to you kasi ikaw naman yong student.....hindi ka babawalan ng school niyan...your other option would be to communicate with the said school and present your case then ask for an extension for your class commencement..si wifey bro late siya ng 2 weeks sa school niya at the start of her course her last 2010....good luck and pray hard...

    Yes kuya Dan, at tiwala ako kay Lord sa mga plans Niya. Nag reply rin yung school re sa pag defer ko sa pagpasok ko this coming July 10. Update ko lang daw sila and file lang ako ng postponement. Kaso kuya Dan yung sa embassy naman, okay lang ba na ipostpone ko, hindi ba maapektuhan yung pag grant nila sakin ng visa? And pwede kaya for exmple Feb "2015" na ang pasok ko pero punta na ako Sydney ng mga October "2014"? or basta yung months pa bago commencement ko po? Thanks! God bless you and your wife.

    @markier87 - okay naman ang flow ng tao sa NHSI. Open sila from 8:00 a.m and have clinics on Saturdays. Nagmedical na kami last Saturday, mababait naman sila dun.

    Ang pinag pe pray namin is sana po tuloy-tuloy na itong visa approval namin. After a series of delays caused by the turnover of Aus visa processing center to VFS, parang sumasakit na ulo ko sa inefficiencies nila. Anybody here who's experienced the same?

    What i know of is free ang processing if the school that you intend to study is their partner institution, otherwise, 10,000 pesos and fee nila for visa processing assistance. You can call them to book an appointment for free consultation or live chat mon-fri 1pm-4:30pm, vist their site philippines.idp.com.
