  Check your conditions po Sa visa grant mo. They usually indicates their provisions. Safest na ngaun is 573 na package course para di masyado magastos. Streamlined pa and you get the chance na makahanap ng sponsor after ng diploma course mo before you commence to the bachelor course. Un po kasi advice ng education agent ko. Sa fortrust nga pala ako nagpatulong. Free of charge din Sila like idp and I made some background checks ang seems they're legit in doing their services.

  @kowk48 I believe it depends sa visa sub-class. Mine was 574 and one-way airfare ticket was enough

  @iheartyouboy Oo nga po sis. Si ate rin un ang unang work n napasukan nya. Chinese restaurant nga. Ehh dependent nman kasi sya ng bayaw ko Sa 457 kaya walang issue. Doubtful lang ako baka kasi risky Ung ganun na way.. Pero since na try mo na.. Ganun na rin gawin ko pag naging positive pagaapply ko. Hopefully dumating na Ung isang offer letter ko para makabayad na then lodge na.

  @carolyndmapush hi.. For us nurses, we need to have a "game plan".. Did an agent advise you in taking up the aged care course? By studying these Aged care courses, it allows you to get to Australia quickly, so that you can work and save up for the bridging program later on. But as I said, you need to have a game plan because they can't sponsor you for migration/work for a carer job. They can only sponsor registered Nurses. Nursing is on the SOL, which then qualifies for migration. Try checking the APHRA website for the requirements. If i'm not mistaken, I think it requires at least 2 years work experience to gain registry.

  @santosjed21 .....it's not due to the documents that one sends to the embassy why a "no further stay" condition is placed on their visa....rather that refers to the length of their stay in australia....so if one gets a short term course some kind of a 6-month course the the CO may put such condition then one needs to make a request so that such condition can be waived and he/she therefore can apply for a subsequent visa

  @pmm0202 ...you will know since the condition "8503" is printed on your visa label. check your visa and you will find it if it's there or not....and in certain cases, department of immigration will inform you beforehand that such condition will be placed in your visa...

  @pmm0202 ....what's your OSHC provider by the way? anyway if you travel before the commencement of your private insurance premium then you need to inform your private insurance provider that you have arrived earlier than your expected date (in your case ang plano mo is to get here in OZ by Sept 25 then your coverage will start by Oct. 1) so that they can update their file....usually kasi pag nagbayad ka before coming to australia ang coverage mo will start upon your arrival here.

  @danyan2001us

  Hi sis, i don't think they will question you at the airport why you arrive prior to the commencement of your OSHC. However when you're here in OZ, contact your OSHC provider (email, phone or by person) and tell them of your date of arrival so that they will update your details and re-send any membership material if then it is required. Or for them to adjust the date of your OSHC to become active.

Speak in the hearts of the concerned officials, grant me favour in their eyes and help me to get my visa on time so that my purpose is fulfilled. Perfect everything for me my Master. I wait at Your feet and trust in You to make this possible. I know that You will do it for You will never let Your children down. I thank You for listening to my plea!
