I wrote them about the svp for geoscience but they said the program has no university credit nd stuff that i hv to apply under level 3.
What program is ur frnd applying?

I wanted to pay today but want to get adequate info first.

UBKtech:

Was GTE not required as condition for your offer?? He is applying for Accounting

UBKtech: He does not have the COE yet, the school has offered him a place conditional on him filling the GTE (Genuine Temporary Entrant). But in the Gte questionnaire, he was asked question 9 on how he intends to fund his studies and also provide evidence. Eg Bank statements for the past three months. See the link below for details

http://www.tafesa.edu.au/docs/default-source/international-files/genuine-temporary-entrant-applicant-form-online.pdf?sfvrsn=2

The catch here , is that he intended to leave the funds in the account for three months and apply November Ending. But the course provider is asking for it now as part of the GTE requirement. Will it be okay for him to print off the statement now and submit even though it is barely one month old??

Thanks for your prompt response.

FutureDon:

Ooops sorry boss, I did not know that he's still at the stage of responding to his conditional offer.

This is what Question 9 on that document reads:

Please provide evidence of funds (eg. bank statements for the past 3 months, loan document, financial guarantee from sponsor etc.).

Is the account newly opened and less than 3months? If no, he should be to ask his bank to print his statement of account starting from, say, May/June up till this moment. He could make a little transaction (debit/credit) on his account, just before he request that the statement be printed. That should suffice, I thought.

I think they are asking for 3months old bank statement (showing funds availability) and not necessarily that applicants should have held the required money for 3 months.

Please oo bro, just to be clear. If i applied for an svp program and on arriving to oz switch to a course dats not an svp but in the same school wil dat b cool?.. Eg I applied for accounting diploma + university package. Then will opt for applied geoscience diploma only all course in d same school

UBKtech:

Well from DIPB website, you will need to change to another SVP program otherwise your visa will be considered for cancellation. But you are allowed to change from non SVP to non SVP without applying for a new visa: http://www.immi.gov.au/Study/Pages/changing-courses.aspx

mrnilobrawn:

Yes 5M.
Well I know 5M will confortable afford d first yr. For a self sponsor with dat amount wont dey consider the cost of the second year and how he/she will meet up with its cost?

Am having the exact same issue, but my program is not under SVP but its tafesa..applied Geoscience.

symbian03:


Are you self-sponsored as well?

kakazee: Hello everyone, please I need to some advice from people that have gone through this, I am planning to submit my student visa application next week but I need advice on what documents I need to put as my family ties. Thanks

surveyor1:
Before I answer the question, are you applying as SVP or AL3? Also are you applying with your family?

kakazee:

I am for AL3 and yes applying with my family.

surveyor1:
Ok. have you enroled your children if they are aged 5? what is the sum of the fund in d statement of account?
you dont need to show any family ties since you are applying with your family. but with assesment level3 and you applying with family, make sure you package well excepially your bank account. are you self sponsor?

kakazee:

All d kids are enrolled, paid half of their tution each, heve $22k left from my own ttution and N19m in my spouse's acct, he is my sponsor (do u think that's enough?)

surveyor1:
Firstly, how old are your children? is your partner accompany you? as a student with children is tough but you will survive because you will need a bigger house which is costly. both states are good but if you considering weather, melbourne got crazy weather but is multicutural. all the best

coldgate:

Tanx. First child is 5yrs old while the second is 3 yrs old. No partner. I have heard of the 'four seasons in one day' weather in Melbourne. Though the cost of living is about 12% lower than Perth (Mt. Lawley).Pls. does anyone know what other plus Perth has asides the weather?
