@bebangau You can request for the bank manager to assist you in sending dollar payments to AU. In my case, sa BDO, since we didn't have a dollar account, the bank manager suggested to buy dollars from the "black market." Just ask - they have connections.

Guys next Monday na ang intake ko (Feb1) Until now wala pa din news about my visa. Kinakabahan talaga ako na baka di na ako umabot. Wala pa din interview or anything from embassy. 572 applicant here.
@eiwoks_lex same here sis. Still on the waiting game. No email or phone interview, acknowldgement email lang. Nakaka tense na talaga. Sana lumabas na this week. Pray hard tayo sis. [-O<

@danyan2001us hi po. I've seen that you've been replying regularly with some comments here. I hope you can help me answer my question.
I have an Australian boyfriend, and we're planning to lodge an application for vet subclass 572 via svp. Pwede ba nia akong isponsor? Counted ba xa as my partner though we're not married? I hope I hear it from you soon! All the best! And thank you

@MichiDC Sis!!! Lumabas na visa grant ko just now. No interview. Kakatawag lang ng agent ko less than an hour ago and kakaforward lang nila ng email from the embassy. Waaa... super thankful ako. Napakapowerful talaga ng prayers. I'm praying for those waiting for their visa decisions. Goodluck po sainyong lahat!

My timeline: subclass 572
10/26/2015 - received offer letter for Diploma of Photoimaging 11/25/2015 - acceptance of offer and paid tuition fee 11/30/2015 - received CoE 12/4/2015 - submitted all the requirements to Fortrust Makati 12/11/2015 - received acknowledgement letter from the Embassy 1/25/2016 - received Visa Grant from my CO Marinella Thank you Lord!!! 2/1/2016 - first day of classes
To all those waiting for their visa grants, keep on praying. I'm not a very religious person and I don't pray at all. This is the first time ever that I really wanted something so bad kaya sinubukan ko and I must say, hindi lang siya effective, nakakagaan ng pakiramdam ang prayers. I go to church everyday and say my novena prayers to St.Jude. Goodluck po!

Hi guys! Ask ko lang po. Australian citizen yung boyfriend ko. Pwede po ba nia akong isponsor for vet subclass 572? Does it apply din po sa svp? Thanks sa mga sasagot.
if we will base it on their list of approved sponsors, it is sad to note that your bf (in spite of his being an Australian citizen) is not on the list of approved individuals to sponsor any student visa applicant to Australia....

@danyan2001us but based po sa list of sponsor sa website nila: applicant's partner is pwede. And hnd naman specific kung spouse or defacto. Partner Lang ang nakalagay kaya ako nacoconfuse. Do you have any agency na pwedeng irecommend? If so how much do they normally quote. Thanks po

sis check mo itong news item from Immigration News issued last year: -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Assessment Level (AL) of the student determines how much funds need to be shown, who can provide these funds and how long these funds must be held. In order for the funds to be admissible they need to be held by an acceptable individual one who qualifies as someone whose income can provide for the visa applicant's education and living expenses.
An acceptable individual; can be one or more of the following:
(a) the applicant; (b) the applicant's spouse or de-facto partner; (c) a parent of the applicant; (d) a grandparent of the applicant; (e) a brother or sister of the applicant;
(f) an uncle or aunt of the applicant who is: (i) an Australian citizen, an Australian permanent resident or an eligible New Zealand citizen; and (ii) usually resident in Australia. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Source: Immigration News
if tingnan mo yan, ang nakalagay dyan ay de-facto partner.....so if nagsasama na kau ng bf mo then yes ang sagot sa tanong mo but if magbf kayo but you are not living in one roof, then he is not qualify to be your sponsor. And yes you are right, better consult a migration agent on this matter for he can explain to you further if ok ba or hindi ang bf mo magiging sponsor mo. Good luck and keep us updated.
