  @danyan2001us Thanks po kuya dan. Kaso paano po yung mga bagong dating palang ng aussie na international student? Ganun din po ba ang requirements? So kailangan ko po kumuha ng nga proof of funds ko dito sa pinas na ipapakita ko sakanila like bank certificates po? If payslip naman ito po ba yunv mga previous payslips ko po?
  Most likely po same yung ipapakita ko na financial docs sa real estate agent like sa ipinakita ko sa australian embassy po? Thanks po sa pagsagot kuya dan.

  sis ang lahat na binanggit ko dito sa OZ based na ...like banko mo dito (deposit) at saka kung may work then you need to produce payslips....kaya mas advantage kung may kakilala ka na makakatulong maghanap ng room or studio type muna...like in our case way back 2010 yong friend namin na OX ang siyang naghanap ng place na mastayhan namin

  saan ba kau dito sa OZ? if melbourne kayo then may mga friendds tau dito na naghahanap din ng makakahouse share pero syempre first come first serve dahil hindi naman sila pwede mag antay ng matagal....ang importante makakasave....dahil if new ka dito at saka maghanap ka ng ma rent na place, usually they will ask from you one month rent and one month bond ..malaki na yon sa mga bagong dating....

  @meechan_rn Yep. Nurse din ako 2nd yr na, doing BN sa uni. Sa IDP din ako. Tumagal process ng visa ko kasi ni-refer ng CO ko yung medicals ko, may asthma kasi ako pero very smooth ang process. Helpful ang IDP counsellor. Need lang ng patience sa kanila kasi madami silang clients, mostly students, since free ang services nila.

  11/17/12: passed school application thru IDP * 12/4/12: received letter of offer (univ. of newcastle) * 12/12/12: credit application * 2/22/13: received new letter of offer * 2/26/13: paid deposit fee * 3/8/13: received COE and paid visa fee * 4/10/13: visa application thru IDP * 4/11/13: medical request from DIAC * 4/12/13: medical exam done * 4/19/13: SLEC uploaded my medicals * 4/12/13: medical exam done * 7/11/13: VISA GRANTED

  @meechan_rn Undegrad kinuwa ko Subclass 573 svp kasi yun gusto ng relatives ko at para mas maka stay dito for a while. Eligible pa to apply for 2 yrs post-grad visa. I suggest ito kunin mo pero yun lang, ang mahal ng fees- triple ng binabayaran ng locals dito. Pero if u have relatives to support you, mas madali.

  @joace31 oo electronic lang naman . Pa print mo na lang

  "IF YOU ASK ANYTHING IN MY NAME, I WILL DO IT".

  John 14:14

  Loving Lord!The Scripture says that You are aware of all our needs, even before we ask You. So I come to You and place this request at Your loving hands.You know how desperate I am for getting the Visa. My soul has become weary and anxious over this delay in getting the visa .O Lord! 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! To You alone be all honour and glory. In the sweet name of Jesus I pray.Amen.

  Wala na silang ibabalik na docs sau, since puro photocopies lang naman ang binigay. Di ka ba nakaattend ng briefing last Jan 30 sa idp? May orientation sila sa mga paalis eh.. Print mo un visa grant notice, kasi hahanapin un sa immigration sa pinas, pero sa oz hindi na.
