  Hi! Kahit ba SVP, ipipilit ng IDP na may pangshow money? True po ba na kahit SVP, nag-aask pa rin ng show money ang CO?

  @Lucie yes. I think so. Better be prepared kasi baka mag-ask yung CO mo ng proof.

  Hi guys! A friend of mine wants to know what's your opinion in taking English Language Program for Academic Purposes? May budget naman daw sya para dun. Pero mahirap daw ba yung ganun? Pros and Cons? Parang yun ang pathway kasi nya para makapag enrol ng undergraduate course. Mags-IDP din daw kasi sya pero hindi yata inexplain kasi sa kanya. Ako kasi AMS Global ako nagpa-assist.

  Hi guys, I want to share my experience with IDP. I have been in contact with them since October. End of November ako nakapag lodge ng application sa uni, Dec nag send ng conditional offer and yung CoE lumabas ng Dec 27 because we paid the tuition ng Dec 22 na. I then completed everything on the list that IDP gave me. Just yesterday, Jan 9, I lodged my visa application, complete with CoE, OHSC, Medical Exam completed at St. Lukes and NBI clearance done. They did not require bank certificates anymore. This morning I already have my visa grant sitting on my email. Nagulat ako sa bilis. It took just a day. I was expecting it to arrive 2 weeks after pa. With this experience I can say that IDP is efficient and would refer Ms. Lani Salita as counsellor.

  @reilmarie Yung UniSA streamlined sya. Dun kami sa University mismo nag bigay ng bank cert. walang hiningi si embassy. pero nakausap namin yung manager sa bank namin, tinanong kung nag submit nga daw ba kami nung bank cert. Tumawag yata yung embassy sa bank, Jan 9 yung call so I assumed embassy din yun. I did my processing at IDP Ortigas.

  @the_do_over congrats! Ang galing naman. So may chance talaga na di na kelangan ng show money? Haha! Nakakalito yung part na yon e. Kasi may nagsasabi na 3 mos pa dapat nakastay sa bank yung money.

  @keisi1987 I think sa embassy hindi na kailangan. sa school na lang na papasukan mo yung show money. Saka yun nga, sabi nung bank manager samin, tumawag nga daw. She just didn't disclose who, pero tingin ko yung embassy yun dito satin. Same day kasi yung tawag sa submission ko ng application. I also gathered that 3 month rule, but I'm not sure if it was IDP who told me or nabasa ko lang. Fortunately, all was well Keep faith, it will push thru!

  @AD1516 Hi! From my experience puro sa email ang correspondence namin. If you will notice, parati sila may schedule. I would say hindi talaga warm ang approach nila. Very straight to the point sila. They'll tell you what you need to provide then they'll assist you getting in touch with the right institutions. Try emailing them frequently, dun ko mas madalas nakukuha yung answers sa mga questions ko sa kanila.
  If you won't have any issue sa support, soon as makuha mo na ang CoE mo sa school it will be very fast to get your visa. I suggest submit what you have now basing on the list you got from IDP. They will tell you naman if you have any documents you still need to submit. In total I just went to the IDP office thrice. First for my consultation, second submission of requirements sa school, third is submission for the visa. Everything thru email.

  ask lang po ako about sa PTE result. hindi sila bumibigay ng hard copy right? so ano pong proof ang maipapakita ko sa assessing authority na i've taken the test already? ok lang ba na iprint ko lang ang result in pdf then ipapa notarize? valid parin bo yun? ano ginawa niyo?
