"As you may be aware, your visa application is an Assessment Level 3 case and as per the information available on our website, the DIAC Global Service Standard for processing times for these visas is 90 days. I note your visa application was lodged on July 22, 2013 and this visa application is therefore still within our service standards and applicants do have a responsibility to ensure they leave reasonable time between lodgment date and course commencement dates and intended travel to Australia in accordance with our published service standards."
Yan ang possible lang na sagot sayo. Mas maganda to contact them after another month or two. Good luck to your application.

I have my CoE na and mg apply na lang ako sa embassy for 573 visa. I will be taking Masters by coursework and yung UWS is SVP and I am Assessment Level 2. Altho nag basa ako wala nga yata Assessment level if you are SVP. I am in the process of answering question 40 dun sa Form 157A. I mentioned that one of the reasons I am pursuing studies in Aussie is because I have an aunt who will sponsor me. Pero meron na rin sya inisponsor last year din. So mas safe kung di ko na i declare ang sponsor ko? sure ba na hindi ako hihingan ng proof of funds? kase I don't have it. Yung aunt ko lang ng provide nun.
@chill_ice
How much binayaran mo sa embassy? Di ba each dependent na isasama mo may additional fee? Sana ganyan din mangyari sa akin. Para may visa na rin mga kids kahit hindi pa isama.

John 14:14
Loving Lord!The Scripture says that You are aware of all our needs, even before we ask You. So I come to You and place this request at Your loving hands.You know how desperate I am for getting the Visa. My soul has become weary and anxious over this delay in getting the visa .O Lord! Speak in the hearts of the concerned officials, grant me favour in their eyes and help me to get my visa on time so that my purpose is fulfilled. Perfect everything for me my Master. I wait at Your feet and trust in You to make this possible. I know that You will do it for You will never let Your children down. I thank You for listening to my plea! To You alone be all honour and glory. In the sweet name of Jesus I pray.Amen.

You can submit your application first without your IELTS examination. Just email the university's admissions department that you'll be sending it later. I myself did that. But then when they have finished the assessment of your Transcripts you'll only be given a Conditional Offer until you are able to submit the other documents needed (such as your IELTS). As for the documents you can have it certified from the office where you got your papers or have a copy notarized by a notary public lawyer. Some universities may require you to submit your High School diploma / transcripts but not your Primary school transcripts/ diploma. But I think because your applying for a Masters degree, they will only be needing your College transcripts and Diploma plus informations about your current or past experiences / jobs. If you have your Resume or Curriculum Vitae with you, you can send a copy to them together with your application for their reference, this might help in the assessment of your transcripts.
