  Yes after 4 months of waiting refused ang Visa ko. Nagpapasalamat ako dahil binigyan pa ako ng chance na bagohin yung course ko. And this time sisiguruhin kong maitama ko yung mali ko sa Application ko. Wag kayong mawalan ng Pag-asa guys at laging tandaan ang buhay ay weather2x lang.

  Hi guys! Question, may idea kayo when immigration usually invite student visa applicants (svp 573) for interview at the embassy or how long before they call for phone interview from acknowledgement? Mine was acknowledged May 25 based from IDP's email and today is the 11th day. Tomorrow it's going to be Sunday so im assuming there's no office.haha Based sa mga nabasa ko and heard from my friends who were granted, it took exactly 14 days before they got their grant notice. Please someone who knows pa answer please haha Good luck to those still applying and congrats to those who were granted!

  @johnresu hi! I think, the students with de facto or fiance/e are the ones being invited for personal interview. Students with gte or immigration issues are interviewed over the phone. Yun lang ay ang naobserve ko. I have immigration history pero i wasnt interviewed naman. Depende siguro sa case. I have been granted exactly 14 days for visa 573. My papers has been acknowledged May 17th pero lumabas ang visa grant ko May 24th. I have no idea bat ganun ang nangyari. But according to the email, nareceive nila May 10th pa daw papers ko

  NEED ADVISE on NEXT STEP:
  INTAKE: JULY 2016
  
  Medical exam was last May 12. Primary applicant and dependent child got clearance but unfortunately, dependent spouse did not get any clearance but was advised for further examination. Visa application was acknowledged May 26.
  
  We have not received any advise from IMMI so we do not know the next step. WE do not know if I need to go thru the sputum test etc...
  
  Anyone with the same experience??
  Please advise and share.
