    nong naglodge kami dito sa melbourne para sa masters ni wifey ay ang taas ng bp ko kaya 3 times ako pina bp ng immigration doctor just to besure pero hindi talaga bumaba ang bp ko kaya nag ginawa nya nagbigay siya ng letter para sa doctor ko to give me medication at nakasaad doon sa letter niya na walang relasyon yong letter nya sa application namin...it wasmore of a follow up to my bp....

    advice ko lang don't ever use any fake doc or whatever kasi very strict ang australia when it comes to documentation..anyway sa loan mo with a bank not accredited here in OZ....i think that would rely now on the hands of your CO if ma silip nya yan that could be a reason for your visa refusal...sorry to say that....

    @jonathanling what course kukunin mo? madali makakuha ng part-time or casual work while studying. pero regarding sa sponsorship, mahirap. it takes a lot of luck to get an employer to sponsor us for working visa. yun ang worry naming mga nursing students dito- getting a sponsor after we graduate and before our visa expires. very competitive na kasi ang nursing dito, dumami ang mga aussies na nag-aaral. then of course, the NSW health will prioritise australian citizens. kaya last choice na ang mga graduate int'l students. i hope swertehin ako after grad. hoping for the best. :)

    @amedina Sa totoo lang wala pa ko idea eh. Ang iniisip ko is the longer the course the better para mas mdami time para mkpag hanap nang work. Pano ba gagawin pag dating sa work - nirerequire ba nang companies is graduate ka or talagang swertihan lang talaga? For example nagaaral ka magnursing then mkakakuha ka nang work sa restaurant and kunin ka for sponsorship? Does that happen? BTW i hope swertihin ka nga kahit san nagiging competitive na nagiging thin na ang market for us.

    sa experience namin ay after we had our medical sa cebu and after i went into process kasi i had an issue with my heart, i was given the go signal by my physician to proceed with our application...afterwards antay na lang kami sa result ng visa namin....on the other hand, your doctor or clinic will inform you if ever you have issues in relatin to your medical exams...
