    Hello guys. FYI po. Beginning Jan 1, student visa fee is P 22,100 na lang, from last year P 23,400. Para less hassle sa iba, I requested for a manager s check last december kasi kanina ako nag submit ng visa application. Kaya i had to cancel the check and request for a new one.

    may mga requirements na kailangan mong ifulfill to be able to qualify for an apartment at saka may points ka na need ma achieve...kinukuha ang points sa following: passport, work, money in the bank etc....kumbaga need mo papasa sa tinatawag na credit score....

    Sir, happy new year! employed siya sa remotestaff philippines. ang work niya eh mag process ng mga pick-up request etc.. Double express yung company dyan sa Australia. courier service ata yan. 2 years na po siya sa company.

    Concern lang namin eh baka kung ilagay namin sa resume niya at visa application may doubt yung co kase since nasa australia yung company. May work din naman cya as secretary sa Law firm ng mother niya. Ano po ba sa tingin niyo?

    Student visa po 573 plano namin para under svp. nag aantay lang po kami ng offer sa uni. Undergrad po yung wife ko 4th year International studies.

    Thanks po

    @danyan2001us paano po kung student lang ako. How much ang kailangan kong money na nasa bank for credit score? Saka since kapag dating ko dun wala pa naman akong work eh. Ibig sabihin po ba hindi ako makakahanap ng sariling apartment kung student lang po?

    Mahihirapan ka makakuha ng sarili mong apartment or house.
    you need to apply and may requirements which most likely maliit chance kung student / walang work at bago ka lang dating sa Aus.


    Try to look for shared accomodation for room or bed space mas mura.

    IF urgent at wala ka mahanapan na share accomodation or bedspace, try mto muna sa backpackers hotel for short term accomodation.

    Kadalasan ng student nag share accomodation lang or nag bedspace since mas affordable.
