@nuggetsnfries Under visa subclass 573, no need for proof of funds. Just make a statutory declaration that you have access to funds when you get to australia.

@Pattycorky hi question lang po, would you know po how much ang dapat na funds if 6 mos course lang? kailangan po ba 12 mos din or minimum na ang 6 mos?
Hi po. Dko po sure e. Pero s tingin ang kailangan mlng is ung pra s buong duration ng course m. Pero ang nk default po s DIBP is 12 months so i think to be on the safe side mas better if u can provide proof of funds for 12 months.. :-)

@nuggetsnfries.......there is also a case wherein the institution itself asks from you your proof of funds (kahit na svp ang institution mo) kaya better be sure to get ready with them...anyway if mayron ka talaga that certain funds, then you can also provide any proof....for sure you will not put any amount if wala ka docs di ba?

@nuggetsnfries Yap. Here nako sa au. I'm already studying 1st yr nursing. In my case kasi, no proof of funds since 573 visa. Pero tama, may ibang institutions who ask for proof of funds. Just be ready na lang, if in case they'll ask.

@ozdreamer0323 Pinasend ako ng additional docs...more on sa proof na pwedeng hugutin yung money sa time deposit. Mga 60 pesos yung fee. Nag email rin ako sa CO na naipadala k na yung docs and I also asked to give more time to produce the docs if the ones I submitted werent sufficient.

@markier87 hi! Sorry ngayon lang. Yup. Actually 16+k lang kuha ko. May option kasi ang cebu pac and scoot to purchase more baggage allowance. Di na ako bumili ng meals at yung cebu pac after lunch ang flight ko and red eye naman yung scoot.
@bellaparaiso wow! That's a good offer pala. Sana mkaavail din ako ng ganyan.

Hi all! Just wanted to clarify about the documents you sent to your Uni to get your eCOE, were they all original documents? If not, how did you go about the notarization? What I'm planning is to make a certification and have it signed by a notary public. Please shed some light into this quandary. Thanks a lot!

@markier87 in my case, notarised/ certified scanned copy ng document ang pwede. need mo nlng present sa Uni original docs pag andun kna.
@markmark Thanks for the reply bro. Scanned copies, you mean colored copies right? Not just the usual clear photocopy? Where did the notary public signed? at the back of the copy? or did you make a separate declaration and have it signed by the notary public?
