    Hi guys,

    Just got my visa grant letter via email at around 1130am today.

    Long live this site and its helpful members! Good luck to everyone who's already lodged and those who are still preparing for lodgment. :)

    Thank you very much, dear Father.
    Congratulations

    "IF YOU ASK ANYTHING IN MY NAME, I WILL DO IT".

    John 14:14

    Loving Lord!The Scripture says that You are aware of all our needs, even before we ask You. So I come to You and place this request at Your loving hands.You know how desperate I am for getting the Visa. My soul has become weary and anxious over this delay in getting the visa .O Lord! Speak in the hearts of the concerned officials, grant me favour in their eyes and help me to get my visa on time so that my purpose is fulfilled. Perfect everything for me my Master. I wait at Your feet and trust in You to make this possible. I know that You will do it for You will never let Your children down. I thank You for listening to my plea! To You alone be all honour and glory. In the sweet name of Jesus I pray.Amen.

    @Siopao23 Exposure to patients with TB :( Parang given naman kasi since I work as a nurse. Pero yun nga sabi ng panel physician, despire clear xray results the embassy might still refer it. Pero I guess depende rin yun sa case officer. Wag an Lord please [-O<

    Btw, are you in aussie na?
    Aaaah. Hindi na yan dont worry

    Hi po question lang ulit. I tried to do some research but I can't find the exact answer. Can someone enlighten me about SVP? Para lang po ba to sa mga magtetake ng BA courses or under visa 573?

    Thank you. :) two days after lodging nagpakita na agad si Grant. It really helped doing the medicals prior to submitting the visa application and making sure that all the requirements are submitted the first time.

    SVP stands for streamlined visa processing. Currently, it's only available for subclasses 573 (Bachelor's degree/Masters by coursework) and 574 (Masters by research/Doctorates). If you're applying under SVP, you will be tagged as Assessment Level 1 regardless of your country of origin

    To be qualified for SVP:
    1. your course should be a Bachelors degree at the very least
    2. your school/education provider of choice is part of the list participating in SVP.

    For further reading: http://www.immi.gov.au/business-services/education-providers/streamlined-visa-arrangements.htm

    In theory, pag SVP, mas malaki ang chance na maapprove and minimal to none ang hihingiing proof of funds.

    Thank you! Tiwala lang and untiring prayers. :) I wasn't interviewed sis. To be honest, one should hope that he or she won't be interviewed kasi that actually suggests na may something wrong or insufficient sa application documents that were submitted. I backread in this thread nung inaayos ko yung application ko, and visa refusal usually yung mga may interview, if I remember correctly.

    So sana wala nang interviews! :)

    Yup I believe ganun ginawa ni @bbgirl. Hindi pa ata siya fully aware when she submitted her application na pwedeng hindi na magbigay ng proof of funds pag SVP.

    Speaking of @bbgirl, kumusta na kaya siya.. Based on her last magrelodge siya around this time.

    I haven't seen an SVP course na one year lang so I'll assume 572 po ang aapply-an nyo.

    Kung below 5 y.o. po yung anak nyo, you need the TF for the entire course plus around 28,800 for living expenses. If 5-18 y.o. na, you need an additional 8K for your son's schooling.

    Plus of course airfare.
