@ten2six include ko lang ung anak ko as dependent. D naman naghanap ng whatever ang immig basta ang binayaran ko lang s insurance is for couple. Tapos nung na-acknowledge ung application ko, pati anak ko pina-medical na din kasma n sya s email ng embassy. D pa enrolled anak ko ngaun kasi maiiwan pa sya dito, ssunod n lang sya pag andun n kami.

@kulay17 Awww. You were unable to pass you application with an ample amount of time. Anong sabi ng agent mo? What assessment level ang application mo? I believe AL3? Am I correct?

lightsaber07 · August 2013

@hopingako Hahaha. Tama yan. Good Luck! *good vibes*

@Rhia13 s melb cbd un school ko.. wala pa kmi nahahanap n apartment..early nxt yr p naman kami aalis.. nakakapagwork kna ngyon dyan? and anu course mo? thank you..:)

kulay17 · August 2013

@lightsaber07 magw8 lng daw po kmi ng email.tkot n po ako mrefuse ulit sbi ng agent level 3 daw po

lightsaber07 · August 2013

@kulay17 If I am not mistaken, AL3 takes about 60 working days following the published service standard for Assessment Level 3. Case to case din, pwedeng mas maaga. Don't be afraid. Just pray and be positive. Everything will be in the right place. Pero has your agent talk about the possible deferment of your course?

kulay17 · August 2013

@lightsaber07 ok nmn po u course may bagong coe na po ako pero hnd ko submit sa embassy kc nga daw po d sila ngeemail pa.. magemail pa po ba ako o hnd na?

lightsaber07 · August 2013

@kulay17 It would be best not to contact the embassy yet. Ang isasagot lang nila would be,

"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.

@lightsaber07 thank you

Rhina13 · August 2013

Rhina13 · August 2013

@i_am_ybba nasa city rin pala ang school mo.. mas maganda kung makahanap kayo ng apartment na malapit lang sa city kasi doon yung maraming work.

i_am_ybba · August 2013

@ all

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.

acelechi15 · August 2013

@kulay17 you have to send them the new coe kasi kung di mo masend yung bago at tapos na yung dati mong coe makakaapekto yun sa visa. Update re your coe.

i_am_ybba · August 2013

@ten2six kung under ka naman ng SVP (573) no need na for proof of funds.. you just need to provide affidavit of financial support yata un.. basta un parang iddeclare mo na kaya mo tustusan studies mo and living expenses s au..

ten2six · August 2013

@i_am_ybba so affidavit.. sworn statement lang yun without proof? yun lang ang pinrovide mo? Did you apply via IDP? Sila ba ng advise sa yo nun?

chill_ice · August 2013

@ten2six ung binayaran ko s embassy is ung dti pa kasi before july 1 ako naglodge so 1 payment n for the three of us. I think meron n nagpost dito re payment, try to back read na lang.

ten2six · August 2013

@chill_ice nice. Nakahabol ka pala. Yes new fees policy nga pala after July 1. Dalawa yung kids ko mejo masakit sa bulsa kung 4 kami mg a apply.

michikoi · August 2013

@lightsaber07
Thank you for the reply. I have a pm for you if you don't mind.

chill_ice · August 2013

@ten2six yes hinabol ko talaga kaso narefer medical ko kaya ayun natagalan at naghhintay pa din til now.

lightsaber07 · August 2013

@michikoi Sure. Sure. No problem. Btw, I have messaged you back already.

Guys, naka pag pa medical na ko kanina sa NHSI. Urine, X-ray, Physical exam lang ginawa (Diploma in IT).

Question: Meron sa form na tick box saying "would you like to have your medical exam blah blah blah for an extended stay" tapos "YES" or "NO" . Pag daw "YES" i HIV test ka nila, e "NO" ung pinili ko, would that change a thing?

Siopao23 · August 2013

@PampangasBest no ang pinili ko eh. Kasi sabi nung nurse sa nhsi halos lahat ng kumukuha ng student visa ay no ang check nila. Kaw ba?

acelechi15 · August 2013

@PampangasBest tama lang na NO kasi makikita ng embassy na may balak ka pala mag-extend kung sakali.

)

PampangasBest · August 2013

@Siopao23 - "NO" rin pinili ko. Kasi naisip ko that if that was really needed, it will be declared dun sa medical examination request na pinadala saken.

@acelechi15 - Nice catch! I wanted to call you kahapon nung nandun ako sa NHSI to verify, kaso I just followed my instinct.

So, am I officially one of the abangers now? hahahha

muffin_jam · August 2013

Hi po. Plan po ng husband ko na magpursue ng study (Masters in Health Science or Public Health) by 2014. Target po naming intake February. Ask ko lang po regarding application in Universities, pwede po magsubmit na ng initial application without IELTS pa? Nagrereview pa po kasi sya pero gusto na din naming masimulan na ang application sa universities na gusto namin. I believe na kailangan po ang IELTS with the other documents for application. Pero baka po may first hand experience kayo na nirequire nila result ng IELTS in a later date bago sila magbigay ng Invitation Letter. Gusto ko rin pong malaman kung yung Certified True copies ng TOR/Diploma dapat manggaling sa Registrars office school or pwede na po yung Lawyers etc. Last na po, kailangan pa po bang magsubmit ng Primary/Elementary transcipt or Diploma as well as in High School?

Thank you very much po in advance. Matagal na akong nagbabasa dito ang very informative at sobra akong naispire sa mga kwento nyo.

Cheers! : )

@muffin_jam

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.
