WHEW!!!! Hello guys virtue just went out of me! I just submitted n paid for 189 for me and my family.....pray for us!
On the document upload, I have a few question
The documents have to b certified before scanning n uploading?its not so clear in the website,first it says d docs shld be scanned and the next sentence says d provided docs have to be certified. I have always thot that you only certify when hard copies are been sent. ( Doesn't make sense to me that you certify and then scan)

The upload section has Health,Evidence of....is dat the almighty medicals? Another place in the site says if you are applying from outside,you have to wait till requested before you go for medicals.abeg how much does medicals cost for 2 adults and a baby? Have tried to enquire from them on phone at Fatayi and they were asking for my something something number before they can give me an estimate
Also, the upload section has Character Evidence of.....is this the police certificate? Tot you also will have to be directed by your CO to go for it?

Bosslady, Fedriko,NNBB2012 et al abeg respond....God bless you all.

@ izykvision0:Mehn just played around checking fares, I couldn't believe my eyes. For a family of 3 around June/July its 970k thereabout on Emirates and 780k thereabout on Etihad/Qatar. In winter? Serious matter o. August is even higher.

What miracle can IOM perform here, knowing that they use Emirates?

IOM will definitely perform miracle. Try to make use of it. The fare for my family of four that I checked earlier, on Etihad was about 1.2million.
I eventually made use of IOM with a total pay of 670k ( despite converting naira to dollar at a rate of 221). Made the payment through my domiciliary dollar account to the IOM Australia account.
So try to make use of the organization. Got my ticket in less than 3 days after payment.
All the best

Congratulations, with this, pray and fast, God will do it. Hope your SOA submitted is very strong. What was your qualification when you apply, And yrs of work Experience.

Congrats, if you have scaled the assessment stage, the rest is almost assured. I was told this a while ago, but I didn't believe until I experimented it myself, then others here can attest to that..... Best of luck, and get ready for the longest wait of yur life

Secondly, the character evidence is your PCC... Scan and upload in colour. Well, they say it's not necessary to certify, but hey, I certified everything... Since I did the same for the assessing body, and used virtually the same documents... For the medicalised, they say you should wait for your CO to contact you, butfromthis thread, I realized, if youre sure of your claims, you can go ahead with the meds. Call fatoyinbo Williams, and they will ask you a question on some number on your application acknowledgent... It's not an elaborate process. No need to upload anything, fatwa yi will sort that out.

3rdly Omooba2015, pls take your time to read the immi website, not just read, but understand. There's a lot of info on the page, but you can easily sieve yours out. Also, less than 10 pages back, there was a useful post on the breakdown on what to do and how to do it if you want to migrate to Aussie.

Really. Did they get Emirates or Etihad for u? And for what month was that? Learnt on this forum they have a naira account.

Hi Everyone,

I know a little that the present system being used by Canada for their Federal immigration programmes are little designed after the Australian type but don't know how much similarity they really have. Can anyone kindly let me know if there are specific professions that are catered for in Australia's immigration programme or anyone with a post-secondary qualification and some years work experience can apply, specifically administrative work experience?

I've been on their site but haven't gotten much out of it yet.

Thank you

WHEW!!!! Hello guys virtue just went out of me! I just submitted n paid for 189 for me and my family.....pray for us!

Please how did you make payment for your visa application? Can one make payment using the ATM mastercard? I applied earlier this week for NSW SS. I pray and hope I'll get the state sponsorship and invite from skillselect before this FY runs out, so I can beat the proposed fees hike for next FY.

I wish you all the best in your application.

30 for Age, 10 for IELTS, 15 for qualification and 10 for experience you get assessed with your Bachelors . So no worries....it says at least a bachelors gives 15 points

Yea....I paid with my normal naira mastercard. Thanks! Wish you well too

Emirates airway was booked for June ending. Yeah, you can pay via the local branch of IOM in Lagos.
The various options on payment will be sent to you when you are set to book with them.
Take care

The people who have to wait for invites are mostly ICT occupations and Accountants...every other occupation gets invited fairly easy, as the number of applicants aren't many and the ceiling level was also increased.

I would advice you do your meds now, uploaded all the required docs and just wait for your direct grant. It is better than waiting for the co to ask for it, as it pushes back the processing time. Just click on the get health details tab and follow the instructions.

When I did my meds, it was about 40k for adults and 20k or so for kids...excluding polio vaccination. Just give them your hap I'd (which will be generated when you click on health details). You will do a full body exam, urine and HIV test...then over to St Nick for x-ray at 5k (only adults need x-ray).

Upload original docs, as long as they are coloured...no need to certify. Also upload your university transcripts alongside your certificate.

If you get everything done and submitted, you can expect your visas by late June to mid July.

Nothing to fear jare. I went through the skill select process twice, and I faced no issues. If you have nothing to hide, and have appropriate documentation to back your claims...then it's easy breezy. What gorks most ppl is when the dibp can't verify their claims e.g work experience.

Wow....informative....BossladyMo make DIBP take you for work na...abi na there you dey work? Thanks. When d grant is given,how long do I hv to enter Aussie? Some say upto 6months....because am not yet ready to move,am looking at Dec or Jan...abi make I use d medicals thing and buy some time?

I dey bro.

The register is the Australian Childhood Immunisation Register. Your kid automatically gets on it once they get a shot in Aus.

New immigrants are only entitled to Family Tax Benefit A & B, CCB and CCR. All you do is lodge the claim online, take a couple of docs to the centre link office so they can upgrade your online self-service access. You can either choose to upload the required docs needed for your claim, or have them upload it for you at centrelink. Then you wait 21days to start receiving the benefits. They backdate payments to when you first lodged the claim though.. And you can choose to receive it fortnightly, quarterly or annually.

You then take yours and the kids customer reference number to the daycare. They will do the calculations and tell you how much you are then to pay. If you choseto have the cCCB paid to the daycare, then all you do is pay whatever is remaining after CCB and CCR are applied. By if you choose to have it paid to your account, then you pay the full daycare fees and your accounted credited.

New migrants also qualify for rent assistance, if your rent is more than a certain amount per fortnight.
