    Hi @JELLiiiN, ako melbourne-bound din ako. :) i think it depends kung anong subclass ng visa na aapplyan mo kasi kung subclass 573, mas mabilis daw yun at medyo hindi strict sa proof of funds. ung subclass 572 naman, kailangan mong mag-submit ng proof of funds. :)

    Hi! I am planning to study in Australia in 2015. I am pharmacy graduate here in the Philippines. I am really confused as to what program I should take considering the pros and cons of each one of them. Among the options listed below, what do you think would be the best in terms of obtaining a PR?

    -Masters of Occupational Health (cons: may be a difficult course, unsure of future employment)
    -BS Nursing (cons: intake will be delayed to 2016 since a freshman can only enter by Sem1, duration of 3yrs)
    -Diploma of Early Childhood in MEGT (cons: no postgraduate work visa after program)

    I would appreciate it if you can suggest other options too. :) Also, do you guys know any reliable agencies? Tried consulting with AMS but I think the assessment that they made for me was fake.

    Thanks, guys! :)

    Feb 2016 - BS Nursing (Graduate Entry 2yr Program)
    Oct 2016 - employed as nursing assistant with agency
    Jan 2017 - employed as nursing assistant at public hospital
    Dec 2017 - received AHPRA registration
    Dec 2017 - granted Temporary Graduate Visa (485)
    Dec 2017 - took PTE to increase points for PR application (Superior 1st take)
    Jan 2018 - job hunt for RN Positions/awaiting for ANMAC assessment for PR application
    Feb 2018 - ANMAC assessment approved/EOI 189 (70pts) and applied for 190 SA state nomination
    Mar 2018 - ITA 190 SA (70pts), visa lodge, attaching documents
    Apr 2018 - commence work as RN

    agents will assist you , pero syempre not all, they will just guide you especially in choosing the right school and right courses for you. They will answer all your concern din naman. They are also a big help and much faster din ang process pag sa kanila.

    Free din lang naman sa IDP and AMS walang bayad so why not di ba.

    In the end naman its still your decision and your choice kung anong course din ang pipiliin mo. But if you have concerns this forum is really a big help especially ung mga taong napagdaanan na ang pag process ng visa.

    Dami din akong natunan dito at isa rin tong forum na toh sa mga nag papalakas ng loob ko.
    kaya kung may tanong ka dito ka lang mag tanong tanong.

    Try to consult IDP para marami kang choices ng course then pili ka na lang. No idea ako sa Pharmacy eh pero for me kung ano talaga ang gusto mong aralin para di din naman sayang. Try to search school din and may list naman sila ng mga courses dun para pag pilian mo. Mostly din ng mga Student Visa na nababasa ko dito agency nila is IDP.

    that was what we did when we applied way back 2010.....no in and out transaction then yong account namin except for a very minimal deposit na P200 a month just to show that the account was really active....just be sure na sa pagsubmit nyo ng bank credentials updated yong account nyo....

    yea thats ok as long as u have the documents about the loans and its from accredited institution its ok lang. 1.6m for both of u na un or u lang? kasi 572 so i assume single ka lang sa application mo? your partner as in husband?

    inadvice ba ng agency mo na kailangan 3 months na ung money sa bank bago mag apply just wondering kasi may mga nagtatanong din about loans.

    HI ALL! I would really appreciate of somebody can give me ideas about student dependent visa. My husband finished his TAFE course and decided to enroll in UNI. He may nominate dependents after his student visa is granted( 573) we were checking sa site and it was indicated that he has to fill up Form 919. After filling, send the form to the family back to Phil together with COE and his passport certified copy and visa. The question is, what are the othe requirements na dapat namin i prepare while awaiting for the signed form 919. Are we still going to be interviewed by the migration officers? Are we going to undergo medical exams as well? I would really appreciate your insights..thank u
