UBKtech:

Well, am not a radiographer, Nwokenna is, however the process is the same. Your occupation Medical Diagnostic Radiographer 251211 is on the skilled occupation list SOL

the process is like this:
1. IELTS ACADEMIC 7.0 with no band less than 7.0
2. SKills Assessment by the Australian Institute of Radiography http://www.air.asn.au/overseasass.php
3. Expression of Interest EOI
4. Visa Application
5. Welcome to Australia!

But go here first and take the points test: you will need at least 55points to start. http://www.immi.gov.au/Visas/Pages/189.aspx

This booklet explained all the steps from start to finish http://www.immi.gov.au/allforms/pdf/1119.pdf
Tnks UBKTech, will peep into it.

You can get a share house in brisbane via gumtree but get a backpacker when you arrive and you can check gumtree. Flatmate is crap.

One way is fine, you dont need round trip. I dont trust wakanow because the stated fare on their website changes by time of payment.However, individual opinion varies, some people may like their service. I used travelstart sha. Safe trip

Firstly, what are the age bracket of your children? Because once they have reach the age 5, you must enrol them in school, which is additional cost. Considering the cost of tafe and school fee for your children and the work right of your wife as dependant of tafe, it worth going for phd route. This is because your children school fees are waived and you and your wife will have unlimited working hours. Lastly, you dont need to submit bank statement for visa application. But if you opt for tafe, you will need to show huge bank account for 4 dependants. Chemistry is a very good course, try to tailor your phd research towards health and check similar field on SOL/CSOL list. All in all, the ball is your court

U cud try and refine ur search to suburbs like nathan, banoon, sunnybank near Griffith Nathan campus. I believe u cud get good deals from about 130 to 200 PW. Just make Sure ur not too far away from school or bus/train station. BTW try arrange ur drivers liciense it would come in handy. Cheers

Re: General Australian Visa Enquiries by aduktus(m): 10:46am On Sep 30, 2014
I got a situation here. I did my medicals on 27/8/2014 and got a message from global health for additional medicals on 8/9/2014 on d ground of calcified lesions in the upper zone of the lung secondary to previous tb treatment and the tests included Xray and sputum culture plus others which I started on 9/9/2014 but the sputum would take at least 6 weeks to be reported. Every other tests carried out by the panel doctor were negative..but still waiting for sputum culture result.
I lodged my application on 23/09/2014 and got a message from vfs that my application has been dispatched to the embassy for processing.
Now my concerns....
1) Up til now, no case officer has been allocated to my application. Anybody with any info on issue like this?
2) the additional medicals were to be forwarded within 28 days but certainly this will be impossible as the sputum culture takes 6 weeks mini. I would have notified the CO but no case officer has contacted me. what do I do?
3) when will I likely have final decision on my application?
4) I didn't declare any previous tb treatment in my medical form but they discovered it by themselves, hence the additional medicals but I declared this in my visa form, will this affect the visa decision?
My application is a SVP, 574, PhD, tuition scholarship.
Thanks

aduktus:

1. I can bet you already have a CO who is just waiting on your medical clearance. I didn't get to know my CO until I contacted them to express concern about my application.

2. You may contact Pretoria for them to clarify this. The team leader (student) or your case officer is likely to respond.

3. Until your medicals is cleared - your app will be assessed but your visa will only be issued when you've satisfied the health requirements.

4. No it will not, fear not sir.

Cheers and good luck.

Go on Qatar airways and get yourself a one-way cheap ticket from Lagos to Brisbane. If you pay with your ATM card, your visa will be ready almost immediately. On the other hand, If you pay into their bank account, e-ticket will be email in about 30-40mins. #TeamQLD.
Re: General Australian Visa Enquiries by FutureDon(m): 12:10pm On Sep 30, 2014
Just thought to share this - if you think your waiting in unusual and have exceeded the normal processing period, it is advisable to contact Pretoria to check if everything is alright. I contacted them the same day my visa was issued only for the team leader (Student) to realise my CO had sent a PVC request mail to a wrong email address.

If I hadn't contacted them, they would have been waiting for me to respond to a mail I never received smiley They are generally nice, so just go straight to them point (and be nice but not obsequous) when contacting them (through email).
