I'm gonna update my OSHC for July 2017 intake and my question is..
If my intake is on July 31, 2017.. My OSHC needs to start a week before which is July 24, 2017 and it should last until 2 months after end date of the program.
What if I want to go to Australia on June 24, 2017 and place my start date on June 24, 2017 instead of July 24, 2017 and the end date is still 2 months after my program..
Will immigration refuse my application just because my OSHC starts 1 month before my intake?

@hello1029 Hi, that will not be a problem. My intake will be on July 11 but I'll be in Australia by June 22 and I got my visa granted. Don't worry, cheers!!

Your visa has been granted with condition 8501 which means that you must maintain adequate arrangements for health insurance (generally Overseas Student Health Cover) while you are in Australia on this visa. You must not enter Australia before your Overseas Student Health Cover has begun. You must not remain in Australia on this visa after your Overseas Student Health Cover has expired.
Students from Norway, Belgium or Sweden may not need to maintain Overseas Student Health Cover. More information is available on our website at www.border.gov.au/Trav/Stud/More/Health-Insurance-for-Students
*To avoid breaching this condition, have your OSHC extended to an earlier date.

VISA GRANT NA PO AKO!!! GOD IS GOOD!! IN HIS PERFECT TIME TALAGA. ANSWERED PRAYERS!!!
Very rare case po yung akin.
Timeline:
February 11, 2017 - lodged application thru immi account (IDP manila helped) February 11, 2017 - Acknowledgement of application received March 16, 2017 - REFUSED due to GTE
Reasons (screenshot attached) The explanation for reasons #: #1 - I'm an entrepreneurship graduate and my proposed course is Accounting (there is a greater benefit for our family business) #3 AND #4 - I did not overstay. I applied on shore for another tourist visa for the extra 2 months (December-February) I got my bridging visa right after the paying the application and my visa grant on December 22 after medical examination.
End of March until April I looked for an agency that can help me apply again for another visa. I talked to 4 agencies (AUG, AMS, FORTRUST, and KOKOS) I opted for KOKOS. They were VERY knowledgeable of what to do with regards to my case. SIR MJ IS THE BEST.
April 21, 2017 - I got a letter from immigration saying that there may have been irregularities on the decision made on my application. We should wait for further information regarding the matter (SAME APPLICATION THAT WAS REFUSED MARCH 16, 2017)
May 9, 2017 - Immigration asked for more information. Updated COE and OSHC.
May 16, 2017 - Attached COE and OSHC to immi account and also emailed immigration officer that sent us the request for more information.

@IntApp yes. mali daw decision nila. nagtanong siya sa immigration kung bakit ganun yung decision nila e hindi naman ako nag overstay. So siguro kaya nalaman ng immigration.

@bumbleaidz Hi, thank you for this information. Though I forgot to mention, my travel insurance would be covering the time my OSHC cannot. In short, I would still be under a certain health insurance since travel insurance will also cover any medical expenses. I did my research on this awhile back. But for those who are still in doubt, adjust your OSHC.

@jleeeeen Cool! I like people who do their homework, good job!
Take note guys: You can't enter Australia without any kind of health insurance, more specifically when you're on a student visa.
Cheers!
