  @pmm0202 ...no need of proof of funds ....just state in the statutory declaration that you have access to the funds....though in some cases it is the school/institution which will ask for the POF

  Help!
  
  My online payment with British Council for the IELTS registration always fails. Any body here knows the work around for this? I am using a friend's card and I have all the details needed.
  
  BUT, I am not sure yet if my friend is using SecureCode which might be the reason for all of these.
  
  Any insights?

  @Howard ....pwede yan bro basta i declare mo sila sa initial (first lodgement) filing mo na kahit hindi sila lilipad with you here pero kasali sila as members of your family. Pag andito ka na, then file ka ng visa for them as your additional dependents....

  Hi guys I just read what seems like an update sa financial requirements :
  
  Financial requirements
  You must meet the following financial requirements.
  
  Travel, tuition and living expenses
  
  The table below outlines the amounts in Australian dollars (AUD) that you need access to. These amounts are the minimum required for this visa. They do not necessarily represent the cost of living in Australia.
  
  Expenses Per Person Amount required in AUD
  Travel Yourself Return air fare to Australia
  Family members One return air fare to Australia per person
  Tuition Yourself Course fees
  Children aged 5-18 AUD8000 per year
  Living Yourself AUD18 610 per year
  Partner AUD6515 per year
  First child AUD3720 per year
  Each other child AUD2790 per year
  The department must be satisfied that an applicant, once in Australia, will have genuine access to the funds they claim to possess to cover the travel, tuition and living costs for themselves and their family members.
  
  You must have enough money to pay for travel, tuition and living expenses for yourself, your partner and your dependent children for the duration of your stay in Australia.
  
  You must:
  
  show proof that you can meet these financial requirements for the first 12 months of your stay in Australia.
  Note: If you have completed 75 percent of your course and are applying for a subsequent student visa, you do not need to show your savings history.
  declare on your application that you can meet these financial requirements for the remainder of your stay in Australia.
  
  
  Tama po ba pagkakaintindi ko na if 2 years man ang course ko e first year na lang ang need kong isatisfy as stated on bullet 1?

  @pmm0202 ...yong nangyari kasi sa amin ay we needed to show the whole funds first before we were issued the PVA (pre visa assessment)...so sa iyo ba ngayon ay meron ka na PVA dahil pinapabayad ka na?

  @pmm0202 ...good then if hindi na kasi nga 2010 pa ung sa amin maybe change na nila ang process nila.....kasi dati you need to pay first the school para ma issue kanila ng COE the yan ang submit ng applicant sa immigration for the visa issuance...pero dati pag may PVA ka na sure na yon na approve na ang ivsa mo...pagreceive namin ng PVA namin mga 5 days labas ang visa namin.......
