  @nicekckyle , thank you mam ilan years po un course nu kx I was thingking to change my course from Cert III in Printing and Graphic Arts Production - 1 year to Bachelor in Graphic Design which is 3 years para ma qualify po ako sa visa 573? Kindly correct me if I am wrong...
  
  Thank you.
  
  God Bless....

  Hi, 2 years yung course ko Masters in Commerce - Professional Accounting. Yes, mag qualify ka na po for 573 if you take up a Bachelor's degree which is much faster and easier po than 572 kse no need to show proof of funds. May consultant po kayo?

  @nicekckyle thatn you sa reply, wala pa plano plng mag punta sa idp... So it means d na namin klangan mag pa sponsor to support un proof of funds or need pa namin ng letter sa sis-in-law ko na willing mag sponsor?
  
  Thank you.

  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.

  @Howard I'm not sure how it works din po kse as I've said po we submitted proof of funds together with our application kahit po qualified kme for 573 pero if you back read on the thread most people under 573 statutory declaration lang ang sinubmit. Same processing time po even with spouse and kid as long as complete ang docs and no problem with medicals :-)

  Thank you.

  Yes, correct yon if you intend to bring your child, it is required that you provide evidence that you made arrangements for their education in Australia-children 5-18 included in the application. Pero I'm not sure if kelangan na rin bayaran ang tuition fees nila agad...please check po yung form 157A, it says there You must provide evidence (e.g. enrolment advice, offer letter). I'm sure IDP can assist you on this din po.
