  @shye428 I dunno what course you are going to take, but, in my case, I needed to pay the equivalent of 1 term plus Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC) for the entire duration of studies. Then, the school issues your electronic Confirmation of Enrolment (eCoE). This is needed by the Department of Immigration and Border Protection (DIBP).

  @amedina thanks sa reply! are you still studying there? do you know of somebody who needed to present a return ticket?
  
  tama naman siguro kung ganun kc kung maiksi yung stay dapat may return ticket, pero sabi ko sa tita ko masyadong mahaba ung 15 months.. eh, wala pa nga ako mahanap na dates eh.. kaya open return daw recommended sa kanya ng agent. gusto ko na tlga kumuha ng ticket! para di na magmahal.. hahaha

  @Newleaf2014 dapat chineck mo yung receive correspondence by email para hindi na ipapadala.. paminsan kasi pag sa province masyadong malayo.. so abot ng 4 days yung courier. anyway, follow-up mo yung sa medicals mo.. kulitin mo na iupload na.. yun kasi hinihintay sa akin eh.. kaya pag upload ng results may grant na agad. btw 573 ako, kung 573 ka rin, mabilis yan dapat.

  @joseph_peanutbutt ....ok lang yan jo....oo madali lang yan lalo na kung malapit na mag simula ang kurso mo.....although hindi naman nila sinasabi na nag eexpedite sila ng application pero tinitingnan din nila yan na kung wala lang abrerya sa papeles ay makakahabol sa openig.....anywyajo pwede ka makipag commuicate sa school mo at arrange for an extensio kung sakaling tingin mo ay magiging alanganin ang takbo ng application mo....

  AMS did it, I dunno if they were agents, they call themselves consultants, sila nagprocess lahat, I just gave them my papers, paid the fees for the embassy, and yun na, sila na nagpasa sa embassy. You mean sila ang makakareceive ng notice?

  @joseph_peanutbutt ..if they put their address as the address for correspondence with regard to your application then yes...they're the ones who will receive any update from the embassy...and they will be the ones to inform you of any update...just continue making follow ups with them....that's your right and your role.....don't feel that they will get disturb by your call or whatever....it is also their responsibility to inform you on whatever update re: your application....
