alexiam · May 2012

Reply to @Doki_2002: thanks doki! i'm still waiting for our medical result... wish ko lang dumating na...

si0ps · May 2012

ayan...down pala ang philippines.com.au... Buti na lang nakita ko tong forum na to, mas onti pa lang ung discussions, mas madaling maghanap...hehehe

Lodged my application on May 25...received acknowledgement letter and advised to undergo medical exam yesterday...was supposed to go to nationwide today, pero pagkagising ko may period na ko (haaaay buhay)...nalungkot naman ako ng sobra...i was hoping to finalize everything na sana...sa july 16 na yung start ng classes...july 13 yung orientation...baka di ako umabot..nakakapanghinayang...

Congrats sa mga nagrant na ng visa... Sana kami ding naghihintay pa

si0ps · May 2012

ask ko lang kung kailangan ko bang inform yung embassy na hindi pa ko makakapagmedical exam sa ngayon?..nakalagay kasi sa email nila, dapat within 5days of receipt daw ng acknowledgement letter, eh hindi pa pwede dahil sa period (hirap maging babae! LOL)....nakakaloka lang kasi may warning na baka ma-delay yung visa processing...baka matabunan yung application ko...hehehe

aolee · May 2012

@si0ps: i suggest u contact them to be sure mahirap na baka madelay delay ka pa and para directly galing sa kanila ung sagot.

Doki_2002 · May 2012

Hi siops, better inform them, actually i just sent my email informing them. Ganyan din kc nangyari sakin. May 16, request, tapos we went sa nationwide may 17, pag gising ko ng umaga bumulaga c period, kainis dba! Haha. Tapos nung monday lng ulit ako nagpamedical. Tapos ngayon ko lng naisip mag email hehe. Nastress na nga ako, d kmi makakilos kc wala pa visa:( july 9 orientation, july 16 first day ng class...

si0ps · May 2012

Thanks guys for the advise, i emailed them already

...

Hi Doki_2002, ang reply lang saken is to go to the clinic at my soonest convenient time daw... okay lang kaya to go now tapos to follow na lang yung urine test, balik na lang ako after a week... para lang yung ibang test magawa na... or wala ding sense kasi hindi din naman nila isusubmit ng incomplete?... haay... oo nga eh, nakaka-stress tlaga, lalo na't hinahabol natin yung july... at least ikaw waiting na lang ng approval

same pala tayo, july 16 din yung first day of classes ko... need ko pang magreresign sa work pag na-approve... hehehe...

Doki_2002 · May 2012

Hi si0ps, ganun ginawa ko, nagpamedical na ko, tapos to follow urinalysis. Oo ako din d pa resign, tapos maglilipat pa kmi ng bahay, waaahh! Tsaka pa lng nila submit un pag kumpleto na lahat, pero ikaw, kng ok lng sau bumalik, ako kasi gsto ko matapos na para wala ng inintindi, kasama ko rin kc husband at anak ko nagpamedical. Yung husband ko pinabalik the nxt day ksi may sugar daw urine. Nung inulit kinabukasan wala na nmn. Mas ok cguro punta ka na, para if ever may hihingin pa cla sau d ka magagahol. Nakakastress! Hehe

Jenny_sg · June 2012

Hi, to all!

Nakareceive ako ng letter of Offer sa ACU Queensland, ang course ko ay Bachelor Degree. Wala kasi ako experience kaya based sa assessment nila eh uulitin ko uli un course ko. 3 years fulltime sya. Question lang ano klase student visa and suitable sa akin at dependant ko un hubby ko sakali accept ko un offersa akin, makakapagtrabaho kaya sya ng fulltime? Ako kasi ok. lang na 20hours/ week ako magwork since mag-aaral ako.Makakawork kaya hubby ko ng unlimited? Thank sa lahat ng magrereply!

Doki_2002 · June 2012

Hi jenny, abt ur husband 20 hrs lang cya pde magwork since bachelors degree lang ang kukunin mo. If masters or phd ang kukunin mo, pde cya magwork unlimited hrs.

Robbie1977 · June 2012

Jenny...Queensland k? sabi nila bahain dun..ayaw mo b s melbourne or Sydney? tama din c Doki masteral dpat kuhanin mo kung tpos k nmn ng degree s pinas.

kami s Sydney,Asia Pacific International College. MBA course ng hubby ko.

Jenny_sg · June 2012

Thank you sa reply nyo @ Doki_2002 and Robbie1977!

Pwede kaya sa akin un masteral kahit na diko nakwork mula noon natapos ako ng course pero may licensed naman ako. 6 years din kasi wala work. Gusto ko sana magkasama kami pupunta don kung mag-aaral ako kaso kung 20 hours lang sya pwede magwork sa bachelor degree n kukunin ko baka di kami makasurvive don unless may makuha sya employer na willing magsponsor sa kanya.Hay....thank again sa mga reply nyo!

sunshine · June 2012

Hi, I'm processing my student visa application through an agency. hindi ko alam if aabot. ask ko lang, do we have to pay the school prior to lodging? or the coe ba can be given without paying the tuition fee? kasi that's what happened to us eh. the agency didnt ask us to pay the school, after na daw kami magbayad since there is already a COE. kasi from what i noticed here, binayaran niyo muna ang school bago kayo nag-lodge ng visa.

the agency is legit naman. registered sila sa mara. orientation ko is july 9 and naglodge yata ako last week of may na. I called the agency kanina at ang sabi nila, we're waiting na lng for the acknowledgment yata para makapagmedical na ako from the embassy.

Wizardche_13 · June 2012

@sunshine, i think schools from au wont give you COE unless you have already paid the tuition fee. Processing days depends on what assessment level you belong.

Hi alexiam, i had my visameds done may24 sa nationwide, wala akong email na natanggap

STRESSMODEako

Robbie1977 · June 2012

Hi sunshine...tama c Wizardche_13..depende s schools,un COE n meron n need to pay for ist sem tuition fee before ilodge ang student visa aplication. Kmi nkakuha ng COE then bayad ng enrollment fee aud100 lang,kung ok n visa before start ng klase or un orientation dpat byad n at me duedate.

un mamaix..kita ko un timeline nya Mar20 lodge ng visa.. April12 finalized un medical, medical approved May14,visa grant May15...based tlga sila s complete ng medical,6weeks tlga un pg-iintay ng student visa.

sunshine · June 2012

what should i do? anong mai-advise nyo? the agency said kasi na the school gave already na the COE. tapos wait na lng daw kami sa immigration ng notification para sa medical. if ever ba hindi aabot, do i need to pay again the fee for visa application? or pwede for next intake na lng.

anne_281980 · June 2012

Hi everyone,

Naka-receive din ako from nationwide ng update regarding my medicals, na-upload na nila sa eHealth nung June 1

so waiting game na lang ba talaga? wala naman akong tawag na na-receive.

Sabi ng IDP counselor ko, minsan may tumatawag minsan wala,random calls, at if ever may tawag sagutin lang ng maayos.

July 16 ang orientation sa school,,,, sana visa grant tayong lahat at sana umabot tayo sa orientation!

Lejani · June 2012

Hello sa lahat! Wala lang. Just want to express gano ko kinakabahan! Anxious na talaga! Ahaaay! May idea ba kyo anong mga reasons para madecline ang student visa application? Aside sa fake docs po. Thank you!

anne_281980 · June 2012

@lejani, hindi ka nag iisa, anxiety, stress, stomach cramps, lahat na yata, all in one, nararamdaman ko rin.

siguro ung may undiagnosed medical condition,magkaka-problem. pero sabi nga dun sa idp,if evermay TB,medication lang pwede na uli pa-medical tapos go na

update na lang natin isat isa parakahit panu mabawasan ang stress natin,,, tapos kapag nakalusut tayo pagdating sa australia all smiles na tyo

:P

Doki_2002 · June 2012

Lejani · June 2012

Ako pa nagemail sa kanila saka sila sumagot na asa ehealth systme na nga daw result ko. Hayyyyy.. Sana makaabot tyo, ilang weeks nalang pasukan na e.. Haaayyayayayyyyy...

scyprincess · June 2012

@Wizardche_13
goodluck! kararating ko lang dito for the first term, student visa rin.

taking masters din ako,
p.s. ewan ko sa uni nyo, pero sa uni namen mejjoooo mahirap lang kasi di katulad sa pinas ang turo. kelangn mong maging techy sa paghahanap ng research papers

scyprincess · June 2012

wag kayo magalala, mabilis lang yon (nakalilmutan ko na ung timeline) pero somewhere before xmas vacation ako nagfile for visa, jan ako nagmedical, end of jan tinawagan ako at dedeliver na daw ung passport with visa, feb naka-fly nako, nagattend nung orientation, which, is useful pag undergrad ung kukunin ko, kasi puro ganun ung kasabayan ko.. haha...

Lejani · June 2012

@scyprincess goodluck ha galingan mo jan!!

Ask ko pala sa inyo, iniemail nyo ba ang embassy? Or ang case officer nyo to get any updates about your application? Would it help na malaman status ng application? Ako kase ang alam ko lang asa ehealth system na, yun lang. Naghihintay nalang ako ng tawag or email from immi. Hehehe.. Sana umaboooootttttt!!!

scyprincess · June 2012

ang alam ko, pag may COE na, mabilis lang un.. pero nagpapanic din ako ng mga panahon na un kasi hindi alam ng mom ko kung kelan nya ibook ung plane ticket ko. dapat nung end of jan ako aalis pero minove namen, saka naman dumating ung visa. ang alam ko,may telephone number silang binigay at dun ako nagfo-follow up.

you can try to email your case officer, but if i can remember puro phone calls lang ang ginawa ko, and wala na akong ibang ginawa kundi mag antay at magworry at magantay.

anne_281980 · June 2012

Mabilis na kapag na-upload ang visa medicals, Nagulat din ako sa bilis, akala ko 1st week of july pa may lalabas na desisyon.
