    And by the way, I have heard that may possibility na you won't be granted a student visa if the course that you will be taking is not related to your current job or previous study? is this true? kasi maququestion daw?

    Hi all! After the medicals, does NHSI send you an email about it? And whether it was uploaded already? How do I check?
    Thanks! :)

    Hi @all! Got a call from embassy today and grabe kaba ko. My CO just verified some information with me then asked if they will be expecting more documents. Although strict, I appreciate the fact that she gave us those chances and opportunities to provide and justify the documents we said. She mentiones that they will evaluate our application and the results should be available later today.

    Please pray for us guys .... sana po talaga Lord grant na .....

    @5000rpm Ive read some posts here stating na that is one of the reasons why they got refused e. To play safe, maybe it is better that the course you take is related to your previous studies.

    @5000rpm ...hello bro/sis...it's not whether you come from a TAFE, or a bachelors or a master field that will keep and make you successful here in OZ...it's at times coupled with luck...though I would say bachelors and masters fields are more higher in terms of credentials .......(not so sure though in terms of opportunities)....

    Hi @all bad news, we got refused ....

    Main reason is the source of funds. None was considered by the CO. Yung bank loan namin di daw valid kasi back to back loan. she questioned how we cn access the money if our passbook is with the bank. I know ee have access to the loan proceeds that will not require the passbook, its just not stated on any document we presented. Second is that no document was provided that my sponsor is my Uncle.

    It sucks but I know may loop holes talaga kami .... sayang talaga.

    @ozdreamer0323 ...i dont know if it is an option for you now to re lodge your application since you clearly stated that there were loopholes in your application....if ma correct mo yong mga loopholes na yon (2) then malaki ang magiging tsansa mo...kami nga refused din kami the first time then our agent strongly suggested that we relodge right away after she corrected our loophole.

    @danyan2001us Thanks kuya. the only challenge I have is getting a document proving my tita is related to me. She sent us an affidavit stating that I am her nephew last time, i was not able to present that kasi late ko na nakuha. Ok na kaya yun? The bank issue is workable kasi e, eto talaga concern ko sa sponsor ko.

    @ozdreamer0323 ...at times your application depends on how critical (either low or high) the CO would be on one's application....if your tita then issued an affidavit of support stating your relationship and her support then that would be sufficient enough....plus her bank details of course......if that's the only issue then give yourself another try, maybe luck will be on your side at this time....

    @ozdreamer0323 ...again basing on our own application last 2010, i could not remember getting the birth certificates of our sponsors.....but again I'm not privy to the latest requirements for a nominated sponsor to qualify for such a position...so again just to be sure...if it is possible for you to procure that from your tita then go for it.....(i reckon it is also wise for us to double check with our friends here who have been into such a situation as yours..)

    question for everyone who can give inputs..

    if you were already able to get a Letter of offer from a school for the course that you have chosen, what are the possible reasons that might get you denied a student visa?
