  good luck to all your applications guys...at ingat sa mga bogus na educational institutions nowadays kasi mahigpit ang immigration ngayon tungkol sa mga schools na yan...kaya be sure na legit ang mga skol nyo baka masayang ang pera nyo if ipapasara ito sa immig pag matyempuhan

  @coleen ...hi ..you are allowed to work full time when you are on a bridging visa A (while waiting for the outcome of your application of 485 graduate temporary visa)....and with regard to your kids' education, they are allowed to study as stated in your 572 visa condition. Meanwhile, ang pagprocess ng bridging visa is usually between 6 months to 1 year so kailangan nong magpatuloy mabayad sa school fees on this waiting period. And once your 485 graduate temporary visa is approved, you must provide documents to the school on these changes. Hope this helps.

  oo kasi pag diretso ka mag apply ng pr at ang first move mo ay magsubmit ng EOI if hindi ka maimbitahan at mag expire na existing visa mo ay mapipilitan ka lumabas ng australia....offshore ka while waiting sa result ng EOI mo

  ang pagkakaintindi ko dito sa message ni cutie is the 485 graduate temporary visa which is different with the subclass 574 postgraduate research sector visa....
