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!

  @germo20 ang alam ko kasi nagtatake ng ELICOS kapag hindi umabot ang IELTS score sa needed or required ng School sa course na kukunin mo. Kasi yung akin hindi umabot score ko sa IELTS so I have to take an English Course, yung IELTS score ko ang basehan ng school kung how long ako mag undergo ng English course... Hindi ko lang sure kung pwede syang kunin directly na walang IELTS...
  
  

  hi po, ask ko lang how much po binayaran mo na fee for ELICOS? yung school mo naba nag ayos for enrolment or ikaw? thanks.

  Hanap ka muna ng school tapos , mag ielts ka dapat mkuha mong sores according dun sa requirement ng school at nung course na gusto mo. Pag ok na ang ielts mo apply ka dun sa school, pag narecieve mo na email na accpeted ka sa school minsan kailangan mo ba mgabayad para makakuha ka ng CoE, tpos i ready mo na documents mo like yung show money, check mo yung DIBP na site kung pano computation, tpos ready ka din nung iba pang documents na kailangan na makikita mo sa DIBP. Yun pag ok na lahat padala mo na sa kanila at hintay ka sa mga instructions nila via email

  hi if you try to read on this link:
  
  http://www.immi.gov.au/students/_pdf/2011-genuine-temporary-entrant.pdf
  
  i don't think any issued comunication from your employer would matter to any intention that you will have in relation to GTE reuirement.

  @sorbetesatpatatas Overall band score 7.0 All subtests 7.0 dapat. Mag IELTS ka na lang dyan kasi mahal mag ELICOS. Just focus and review. Kaya natin to.

  Hi all!
  
  I just tried to calculate the payment I need for OSHC. All this time I was looking at the wrong commas so I was surprised to see the cheapest for a couple is almost Php120,000. It's quite a big amount for me. Anyway, God will make a way.
  
  I would just like to ask your comments or suggestions on OSHC payments. Which one to take and how to pay successfully. Or baka may nagpapautang nang mga ganyan? hehehe
  
  Thanks!
