FYI
For TAX purposes, International Students are consider Australian resident
http://www.ato.gov.au/Individuals/Income-and-deductions/In-detail/How-tax-works/Working-holidaymakers-and-international-students/?anchor=H2#internatstudent

Meaning our tax rates will be based on this table
http://www.ato.gov.au/Rates/Individual-income-tax-rates/

so, we are also entitled to some deductions????? :-/

@chill_ice wow parehas pala tau ng school pero 3 Mar 2014 ung pasukan ko...ano ba ibig sabihin ng DIAC and IDP? would you know? lagi ko kasi nae-encounter sa thread dito. nag-agent ka ba?
good luck and all the best, balitaan mo ko pag lumabas na ung result u and if ininterview ka...salamat

TinerBebi

@iheartoz wow buti ka pa streamlined processing...pano ka naging streamlined processing?
thanks for the advice...yes I've been reading this entire thread... dme nga useful tips. ano nga pla ibig sabihin ng DIAC and IDP? and nag-agent ka ba? thanks.

iheartoz

@TinerBebi yung school ko eligible for streamlined visa processing. may list of schools sa immigration site. you might want to check. here's the link. http://www.comlaw.gov.au/Details/F2013L01035

di ka pa nakapagbayad sa school di ba? you might want to consider choosing one na under SVP. yung course na gusto mo offered naman ata sa other schools na under SVP. yung mahirap lang naman kasing icomply sa requirements e yung proof of funds. e wala sa SVP yun. bawas sa iisipin. di naman ganun kahirap makakuha ng offer sa schools so you can change your mind pa. pag nagbackread ka, you will know na madalas sa cases ng refusals, proof of funds ang problema. suggestion lang naman para di ka masyadong mahirapan. hehe.

DIAC is Department of Immigration and Citizenship while IDP is just IDP. hehe. education agent ang IDP, helping students from application to school until visa processing. if you can get in touch with IDP from your place, mas ok. free naman ang services nila as long as sila talaga nagprocess from the very beginning.

yes. we have to pay taxes too. pagkakaalam ko, if we want to work there, pagdating natin dun, we have to secure agad one that is equivalent sa TIN natin dito. nakalimutan ko what it's called. kasi if not, mas malaki ang tax na ibabawas.

@iheartoz Salamat…actually nakikita ko ung APIC (Asia Pacific International College) as Education Business Partner ng Victoria University. But when I asked my agent, hindi pa daw SVP ung APIC, unless packaged ung course ko with Victoria Uni. I wanted to go for those school na SVP like Victoria Uni kaso sobrang mahal na ng tuition fees. MBA in APIC is AUD 24k for 2 years, pero pag Victoria Uni, nasa more or less 40k for 2 years…
I am waiting nga for chill_ice to reply my comment in her thread kasi parehas kme ng school and course.
She have a phone interview with an immi officer: http://www.pinoyau.info/discussion/1556/telephone-interview-by-co#Item_13

iheartoz

@TinerBebi wow. laki ng difference. may difference din pala sa fees kahit same course. di ko alam yan. other partners kaya ng ibang uni? baka merong naka-SVP na. i think di naman nainterview si @chill_ice. she was informed lang pero wala nang follow-up.

iheartoz

@TinerBebi if choice mo talaga APIC, siguraduhin mo na lang na kumpleto documents mo for proof of funds. read, read, read muna bago ka mag-apply.

TinerBebi

@iheartoz uu nga eh... i am very new here so really grateful for the immediate response that I get from you all... Will check other threads discussing about evidence of funds.

chill_ice

I was informed na magkakaroon ng phone interview pero until now wala naman ako narerecieve. Diac is where we lodge our application for visa while idp is an agent. Hindi ako under idp, my agent is ECA. Naglodge ako nung june 17 and until now i'm still waiting for my visa. Oct 24 intake ako.

TinerBebi

@chill_ice parehas tau eca din me.. For ur evidence of funds anong ni- submit m? Ilan and sino sponsor u? Thanks

ay nasagot mo na pala dun sa isang thread ung about sa evidence of funds,,thanks for sharing...sana lumabas na din approval ng visa u...just pray hard... ako nmn submit by 1st week of Oct.

guro_ako

As expected na refer yung medical ko sa MOC, almost a week after maupload. Mabilis sila ngayon ah.

kulay17

hello question po. magsponsor po kc skin tita ko gamit u account for bussiness so lbas pasok ng pera ok lng ba na start po today ipasok u 2M tpos d n gagalawin mgalaw man mas lalaki u lman.

iheartoz

@kulay17 basta within 3 months, walang transaction na bababa ng 2M.

TinerBebi

@kulay17 actually yan din ung isa ko pa palang tanong... May holding period ba ung pera na pang showmoney? Sana may makatulong satin :-S

TinerBebi

@iheartoz thank u!!! Within 3 months from the date na nag-apply for visa?

iheartoz

@TinerBebi yes.

trinketz_07

@guro_ako hi..pano nyo po nalaman narefer na medicals nyo?thanks

@Pampangasbest and @Siopao23 may update na po ba senyo?

bbgirl

hello all, kakalodge ko lang po today. :-)

guro_ako

@trinketz_07 nag email sa akin ang DIAC, naka lagay doon kung ano yung mga medical exam na need pa. in my case, pathology test for my left breast, during the time ng medical ko, i have my period. before hand pa ininform ko na yung doktor, para hindi na ako iphysical. sabi din ng xray technician na hindi ako pwedeng iphysical, di ako pinakinggan. so eto balik uli sa Makati to get my referral sa specialist, additional unnecessary expense.

chill_ice

@TinerBebi eof bank statement and bank cert isa lang sponsor ko pero japanese cousin ko.

trinketz_07

@guro_ako ok sige..oo nga additional expenses pa....cge dbale basta maging ok lang po lhat..subclass 573 ka po dba?
