    @pjgs15 Me too. Di ako nagpasa ng nbi clearance as IDP told me it's not necessary. Di din hiningi ng DIAC. But the uni that I'm currently studying ask for it since needed sya to clmplete the clinical placement requirments. Dalhin mo na lang in case. :)

    11/17/12: passed school application thru IDP * 12/4/12: received letter of offer (univ. of newcastle) * 12/12/12: credit application * 2/22/13: received new letter of offer * 2/26/13: paid deposit fee * 3/8/13: received COE and paid visa fee * 4/10/13: visa application thru IDP * 4/11/13: medical request from DIAC * 4/12/13: medical exam done * 4/19/13: SLEC uploaded my medicals * 4/12/13: medical exam done * 7/11/13: VISA GRANTED

    Yun na nga iniisip ko rin, sa NBI na sa main pumunta para sure. Kasi last time pinapunta ako sa main kasi raw may hit ako na may kaso. Ang tagal ng reply ng UWS kung kuha ako or hindi. Hahaha. Di ako mapakali.

    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.

    @caitlinplando Have you tried emailing them for updates? If you havent and you plan to, maybe you can tell them bout your class start date. Can you PM me your consul if you dont mind?

    Di ko alam kung landline or cell no yung gamit ng embassy for their phone interview pero... usually like the PIASI nakaregister sila sa caller id ng cell phone. Pero basta pag nag phone in question na talaga sayo si CO, plus points daw na confident ang tone mo and naaalala mo yung mga sinulat mo sa application including the GTE questionnaire. Grabe! Good luck and God bless!

    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!

    @dreamprayhard84 actually po nung binenta namin yung lupa last year. Tapos naglendingbusiness kami sa mga relatives and family friends with interest. Nung nagdecide kami lag 572 application, we asked lahat ng pinautang to pay us by April. By May nakakuha na kami ng enough for our funds and pocket money.
