    Pwede bang mag apply ng 485 visa after finishing diploma in IT?
    But ang requirement ng assessing body which is ACS for 485 visa is minimum bachelors degree. Please advise.

    Kapag po ba nag lodge ng student visa sisilipin pa ba ng immigration yung mga supporting docs na ginamit mo sa mga previous tourist visa application mo? Kasi yung sakin sa last application ko ng visit visa na naapproved, nakalagay na pumapayag yung boss ko na mag leave of absence ako for two weeks. Pero ang totoo yun na talaga last day ko sa work and nag exceed ako dun sa nakalagay sa sulat ng employer ko na date ng balik ko sa office. Pero di naman ako nag overstay sa aus. Pasok prin sa within three months.

    @sydney_sydney magkaiba ang requirements ng student visa at tourist visa. ang titingnan naman nila is if you breach any conditions while you were here, which obviously you didn't.

    @kailey FAQ sa CPA Australia website. I guess this will be same across professional year offered on other degree (IT & Engineer).
    3. Am I eligible to enrol in Accounting PYP?
    Accounting PYP is an option for overseas students who have obtained an Australian accounting degree qualification as a result of at least two years study in Australia and hold a 485 graduate or post study stream visa. Graduates of Australian accounting degree programs have the opportunity to complete Accounting PYP and obtain a skills assessment that can be used to apply for GSM. The Program also provides an opportunity to independently increase your English language proficiency
