  @graciecrazy09 have your medical exam after a few days para clear yung lungs mo. Mahirap kasi pag may findings. You have to wait for two months dahil may sputum collection pa.

  Hello! Ask ko lang po sana magkano
  Ang show money pag single? Thanks

  hi jane check this one so that you will have an idea how much money do you need when you apply for a student visa:
  
  https://www.immi.gov.au/students/student-visa-living-costs.htm
  
  hope that helps....good luck
  

  Thanks po. Kung 2 years ung course mo kailangan ba good for 2 years din ung proof of funds. Based dun sa table, sobrang laki pala ang kailangan na fund.

  that's just good for one year ( re: living expenses) i've seen on your timeline na visa grant ka na pala....sino pala ang plano mag aral dito?

  @danyan2001us paano po kung student lang ako. How much ang kailangan kong money na nasa bank for credit score? Saka since kapag dating ko dun wala pa naman akong work eh. Ibig sabihin po ba hindi ako makakahanap ng sariling apartment kung student lang po?

  ang nangyari sa amin nong 2010 ay yong friend namin na andito na siya ang naghanap ng matitirhan namin.....try to ask kung may kakilala ka na pwede maghanap a place for you.....then just be ready to give funds for one month bond and one month deposit.....good luck

  Hi guys, May tanong lang ako regarding sa GTE, kapag ba yung kukunin na course sa Australia nasa SOL, possible ba na ma deny visa mo?
  
  For example undergrad ka dito sa atin Bachelor of Arts na course, and kukunin mo sa Australia eh Bachelor of Social work or Education which i believe na related naman sa course mo. Pwede po bang ma deny ka as non GTE kase iisipin ng CO may potential ka na work kase nga assuming demand yung natapos mong course.
  
  Guys please help i need your advice. Ano po ba yung ibang reason na possible ma deny as non GTE.
  
  Thanks you! godbless!

  Hi @Jovanniramos36, i don't think madedeny ang visa application mo dahil included sa SOL ang magiging occupation mo. you can check www.immi.gov.au for more details about GTE.. and mas okay nga kung related ung course na kukunin mo sa AU sa previous course mo kasi makikita nila ang relevance kung bakit mo un tinake..basta kailangan lang na i-prove mo na in-line ung course na kukunin mo sa mga plans mo sa future, kelangan din i-prove mo na may strong personal ties ka dito sa pilipinas (e.g. nandito pa sa pilipinas immediate family members mo) at syempre dapat lagi mong i-express na mag-aaral ka lang sa AUS at babalik ka sa pinas or pupunta ka ibang bansa other than aus para i-apply ang course mo. Good luck and God bless.

  @Jovanniramos36 ..hi bro as long as you satisfy your co that your intention here in OZ is genuine then you hit the bullseye.....madeny lang naman if medyo alanganin ka sa grounds mo for studying here like for example kukuha ako ng aged care dahil nursing graduate ako dyan sa atin then it happens that i haven't worked really as a nurse...yon maquestion ka nyan dahil nursing grad ka nga pero hindi ka naman nagwork sa nursing field
