Suppose he elects to transfer the money into paying another student's fees in Aussie, won't it be allowed?

I was about asking him to pay someone's fees in Aussie and we can agree on the Naira equivalent.
Hahaha we are still saying the same no 3rd party refund.

I also applied for a refund from Torrens and I gave Australian Acc. No response yet.
When did you submit your refund application? And if you modify the account details would they start the process all over again…?
2nd Dec.

No. You will have to give them an acc from your country.

I was in a similar situation in June when my then school stopped my COE due to issues with processing visa for married applicant in my region. I requested for my refund and opened a Euro Account and I sent the euro account details, sort codes etc to the school and they sent back my tuition in Euros. So go to your bank and open a euro dorm account, you will receive the money in it. Also write a letter explaining to the school that the account you are submitting is a euro account that it receives only euro, and Naira will not be credited into it. Ensure that the account is yours, with your account name tallying with your school registration name.
I have them my USD dorm ACC.

You do not know why his admission was nullified and you want the fees to be transfered to you?............You might inherit his liabilities and become marked by immigration.
nope. It doesn't work that way. The issue is that they won't pay to any Australian ACC at all, be it company or individual, as long as it's in Australia.

Yes, get the visa first. it’s becomes easier if the school offers social work too. A lot of people do that.

Thanks for your response.

Yes you can. But, I learnt recently that you must complete the cause that brought you to Australia.

I don't know how true it is. Let those knowledgeable in this regard advice.

Again, you should know that you have yo do a bridging course for like 6 months before you can move directly to social Work.

It cost about 15k AUD for the bridging course.


Thanks for the response, completing the first course that is a long time.
I hope someone that has tried this can give more information.

Hello guys please I need your input regarding this scenario. I recently got a scholarship to Australia and my start date is May 2023. Am planning to apply for visa before the end of this December with my current passport which will expire October 2023.

I have already paid for passport renewal and my date of capturing is January 2023. I was told that the new passport will have a new passport number however that my data will be migrated to it.

Please will this have any implications with my Australian visa application now and in the future?, Should I suspend this process now?. Please i need your urgent advice guys.

Thanks.

Please do you have publication in a reputable journal before being awarded a scholarship?

No it will not affect your application. submit your application with your current passport and then when you have the new one also fill in update information form from immi account not sure if it has a hard copy but I can have a look later. On that form you will explain when you are filling the form by letting them know you have a new passport number.

Also just to be on a safe side email the school admission team as well with your new passport information.

A friend of mine is in dilemma and has asked me give advice him on what do.

I'm confused myself, hence I'm bringing this here for those who are experienced to give their candid opinion.

My friend sent his wife to Australia 2 years ago on a student visa. He stayed back with the children and has been taking proper care of them since the wife left. The children are aged 10 and 8. The first child is in primary 6 and will enter secondary school next year. The second child, a boy, is in primary 4 and will move to primary 5 next year.

My friend's wifey just obtained her PR last month courtesy of one company she worked for and which nominated her.

Now the dilemma.

MY friends wifey wants the family to join her. The children are eager to move to Australia. But my friend is skeptical.
His skepticism comes from two main factors: 1) he is 49 Years, 2) He is gainfully ( by Nigerian Standard) employed. Takes home about N900k per month working for a private company.

My friend will not be able to support the family abroad if he is to allow the children to move to Australia while he remains in Nigeria. EG if he sends AUD 1500, a month to them ( which is about N750K), it wont be able to pay the children's school fees let alone feed.

My friend want to know whether to join the family and do any menial or odd jobs he can lay hands on and at least be able to join hands withd the wifey and see the children through university is Australia. Which to him will be a landmark achievement in life.

Please advice.







I would like to say this shouldn’t be up for a debate but hey every Mallam with his own kettle.

He needs to realise that his kids should come first like he said he is 49years old. Why would you denied them of schooling in Australia.

If I were in his shoes I would let the kids go and stay back in Nigeria. I know someone has said HEC fees but they wouldn’t be eligible for HEC Loan with the kinda of PR the wife has gotten as only Humanitarian PR is eligible for HEC but the kids would be eligible for HECS Help which will enable them pay a lower fee but also if she is PR now there are chances she would be Citizen before they even reach university stage which they will now be eligible for the HECS loan.

Himself should continue his job and continue to support the family with whatever he can as coming to Australia means he would needs to start from scratch unless he is happy to do it. Come visit whenever he can and find a casual job when he is visiting and they would give him an idea if it worth leaving 900k p/m for Australia.

Please I need an advice, I have been researching about Australia but I need some advice especially from anyone living in Australia. I intend to apply for a master's degree program in electrical engineering in January. Please I would like to know if electrical engineering is a good course to study in Australia, are there jobs for electrical engineers. Also, which province or state has more of this jobs so I can target any school within that locality while applying. Note I studied electrical/electronic engineering and have been working as a HSE personnel for eight yrs.

I keep saying to people even those that are here unless your main goal is to gain foreign education but if that’s not the case and your goal is to live and become citizen then forget about the high level courses or high level state to live in.

Yes tradies make a lot more than office jobs and yes you can make good money if you work as an electrician/electrical engineer in a company or just a contractor.

Also bear in mind high state have high target and with the way Australia is people are struggling to get job in their careers due to competition.

I would say target a state that can give you quick PR and then walk your from there cause your experience from Nigeria doesn’t work here in Australia you need to start building your experience from start again especially with a job like that they would require you to know what you are doing.

I would suggest you use google and look for the school you want to apply and then go through their requirements.

The basic ones are O Level, English Exam, Int. passport and birth certificate. They are more when it’s comes to GTE

This is not true. Some schools do pay to an Australian account. Infact, I asked my former school asked if I could receive my refund through someone's Australian Acc, and they said YES. But that I have to write a letter of authorization mandating that the money should be sent to the person through the email trail we have been using to correspond, and quoting my student's admission number.

Your best chance of getting an offer would be Information Technology unless you want to leave the IT sector totally then you can try other health related courses which you have a slim chances of getting an offer.

Majority of jobs you can easily land are DSW, Social Work Aged Care but ofcos with a certificate.

Chances of getting PR when you compare IT and Health related courses is Health. My opinion will be come in with what can get you a visa and then figure the rest when you in.

Ah I wouldn’t know as I am not an education agent nor visa agent…plus visa approvals are luck.

I do know for sure they value experience but at this stage you can’t prove you have a formal education before working as community service or adult care. Unless you do then apply for BSc in any health courses but if not then go ahead with your IT and change when you get here.
