    Hi all!
    Sa mga nkavodafone plan dito, I have a question. Got my plan last Aug.6 but I already received a bill that's due on Aug 27. Is that normal? Hindi pa nga ng1 month eh may bill na? Please share your ideas. Thanks. :)
    Wow, it's great that you're in Oz na.. wee! hmm, ganyan yan, try asking kung ano billing cycle mo. kasi naka postpaid ako sa virgin starting 18th july pero billing cycle ko is every 14th.

    hi friends! question lang po, gusto ko talaga magenroll sa early child education sa australia (vocational course) pero ang course ko nung college is hrim and ang job ko is office job - di din related. Sa tingin nyo po marereject ung application ko? meron na po ba dito na naapprove ung visa kahit na ndi related na course? tnx
    dyan papasok yung explanation part ng application. explain mo why you are choosing that course and relate that with your circumstance. kung office work ka, why not management? then again, pwede ka naman magstart sa management tapos take ka rin ng child care.

    @valiantboy ...first take note that one can only apply for a student visa in Australia if he/she has received already the unconditional letter of offer from the school, have accepted it and paid the required tuition fee deposit (this is usually a one semester fee in advance). Then you will receive the COE (Certificate of Enrolment). Kung online ka nag aaply, bigyan ka ng 124 days (4 months) before mag umpisa ang course mo to lodge your application. Pero if hindi ka eligible to apply online, then pwede ka maglodge ng application mo after mareceive mo ang COE mo. Hope it helps....

    sorry i got confused, why does your wife still have to apply for graduate temporary visa after graduating prior to pr, pero in my case if ever, you're saying that i can go straight to apply for pr visa after graduation from MPA? thanks so much for being patient with all my questions :)

    @attila ....ang professional year ay inioffer during the duration of your 485 visa...this is usually for 10 months at saka ang klase ay during sat lang....yes you are right you will receive 5 additional migration points when you're done with it...at saka sa py may internship at if you are lucky iabsorb ka ng company kung saan ka mag internship for 3 months....just to clarify though, ang professional year ay offered lang sa mga graduates ng engineering, IT at saka accounting....

    @attila ....after graduation kasi, you need to have another visa that will allow you to stay legally in Australia that's why you need to apply for 485 graduate temporary visa....or sa case ng mga qualified just like you, PSV (post study visa) pero within this period, you need to lodge your EOI (expression of Interest) and if lucky enough, you will be selected and invited to lodge now your Skilled Independent Visa which is for PR na.....kasi if you will have no other visa then after your student visa, you need to go out of Australia....

    "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.
