    @ozdreamer0323 Lodged mine in VFS Cebu na walk-in lang. Visa fee in manager's cheque but the other fees should be paid in cash. Not sure though if the same sa VFS Makati. :)

    Hi all!

    Currently in KL awaiting my flight to Perth. Ask ko lang if you had any problems in arriving to Australia when you brought your gadgets? I have my laptop and scanner/printer with me. All are used for more than a year.

    Also, baka may alam pa kayong magpapatuloy ng housemates (me and my partner) sa Perth, preferably near Curtin University.? PaPM naman po. Please?

    Thanks! God bless to us all!

    @danyan2001us thats one way of looking at it. But Kuya dan, do you know someone who took the 572 route? They claim that you can do the bridging course for nurses while on vocational study. I dont know if its true or not, but maybe, if someone can give a first hand opinion, it would really clear things up..

    @Newleaf2014 ...no.....if kukulitin mo ang Co baka mas lalong matagalan kayo....and besides the CO has nothing to do with your medicals.......as per experience, you can't expedite your visa application since these COs have their own priorities also....

    @santosjed21 ...honestly i haven't heard of someone taking that route but i think that would be possible as long as you have a positive assessment with APHRA and they will recommend you to the BP then you can take that as a follow up route after 572.....my wife started with 572 then now she's finishing her 573 masters course ( though she is into a different path - accountant).....why would you not choose that path? though if you consider that one then that would mean more gastos from you.....may dependent ka ba? if may dependent ka then you can have someone to assist you financially here.....

    hi everyone, congratulations po pala sa mga visa granted :)

    anyway, Im reapplying for Subclass 572 with de facto partner. Supposedly for July kami but unfortunately our application was denied because of our evidence of funds (we had a back to back loan). Now, we are re-lodging our papers around Aug 1-3, my dad will be our sponsor and hindi na kami ng loan.

    Is there any chances na they will change the required amount for the evidence of funds from our 1st application? (mag increase ba or mg decrease?) Any advice po from anyone? especially yung sa mga nag relodge din?

    Godbless po sa lahat ng applicants!
    To God be the Glory :)

    @danyan2001us Exactly. It is more expensive.However,the agency claims that you can live off by working 20hrs a week and pay your tuition fees at the same time. Regarding the Visa, By going the 572 route, you will have to change visa to apply for the bridge. Thus, shortening your stay in Oz as 575 gives you just enough time to finish the program. Also, this negates the agency's claim that 572 buys time in Oz. This dilemma is applicable only to the nurses though..

    @santosjed21 ....yes since BP is a 3-month duration course...whereas with the 572 visa that will allow you to stay more or less for two years then after the course, you can proceed to 573 or look for another 572 program (actually some of our friends are doing that here just to be able to stay for a longer time in melbourne with the hope that they can find a sponsor later on)

    @danyan2001us When reapplying for a student visa in Australia, does the DIAC assess you as a level 3 applicant? 3 months processing, show money etc.. Does this mean that you need to process the application 3 months before the end of your visa?

    @santosjed21 ...bro napakadali nong maglodge kami ng application dito sa melbourne....it took us only a week bago dumating yong visa namin....at hindi sila strikto dahil nga svp ang school ni mrs and we have been here since 2010....you can send your application before your substantive visa will expire....at pagreceive mo ng communication from DIBP through email they will state it there that you will be on bridging visa A halimbawa di pa dumating yong new visa mo

    @cody ..i won't say either yes or no bro since i am not an authority on that...at times depende yan sa CO nyo however I would add na how's the hepa b of the person concerned? is it a chronic Hep B---? if it will not be affecting the liver when the time that person will undergo the medical exams then most probably he/she would be fine. However if presently the Hepa B is affecting the liver thus requiring for further medication then that would might be a negative factor.....at the end bro/sis everything lies on the hands of the CO who will handle your papers......good luck anyway

    Hello all! Thank you po sa sumagot sa mga tanong ko. I just read about GTE the other day. Lahat ba nag daan sa interview or case to case basis po yun?

    And follow up question regarding source of funds. So as I have mentioned, the money on my account was transferred from my parents' account. Will I still be required to submit evidences on how they were able to come up with the money? We used to have a business but we stopped operating 2 years ago. The money we have mostly are savings from the previous business and special bank deposits that have grown from interests. As of today, my parents are both retired so they will not be able to come up with ITRs and payslips.

    Maraming salamat ulit!
