If your plan is to stay back after studies and get a PR, then find a different course that will lead to PR. You will have to do your own research.

Hello guys,

Please when I book Turkish airways going to Australia with stopover at Malaysia or Dubai do I need visa for either of these countries?

Please I'm begging you guys in the name of God, did anyone travel with Turkish and passed through Malaysia without visa. Qatar won't be feasible as the price is 2.7m.

Please you guys should help me and advise before I make payment. Getting a refund won't be easy if it can't fly

Which cheap flight can someone use to go to Australia by month end or first week of July. Suggestions please...
Re: General Australian Student Visa Enquiries Part 3 by Softkey(m): 1:05pm On May 16, 2023
Nigerians generally require a visa to transit through Malaysia. This means that if you plan to transit through Malaysia on your way from Turkey to Australia, you may need to obtain a transit visa for Malaysia.

My candid advice, avoid Turkish airline.

I don't think you need transit visa for Malaysia or Dubai. As long as you intend not to leave the transit area of the airport before your next flight, then you can travel through Malaysia or Dubai without a transit visa.

All you have to do is book one flight package that gets you to Australia and doesn't require you to check out or check in your luggage after you have done so in Nigeria. Once you do so, the airline would handle the rest and then you won't need to pass through customs when you arrive Malaysia.

I don't live in Nigeria and have been to Malaysia a couple of times. They have a very large transit area for connecting flights.

However, since you are booking with Turkish airlines, it would be fair to call them to verify that you don't need to check out your luggage so that you can check it in for the connecting flight. If you don't have to, then it's fine to fly through Malaysia. But if you have to, then you would need a transit visa through Malaysia.

In all, you don't need a transit visa if your flight details indicate that the only place you would get to handle your luggage is first at Murtala airport in Lagos and last at your destination in Australia. If nothing in between, when you arrive Malaysia, don't go through customs, speak to the airline crew that you have a connecting flight and they will direct you to where you can take a rest till the next flight boards. Also for due diligence, see that you can contact the Malaysian embassy in Nigeria to confirm the information I gave. From my experience and knowledge, you won't need a transit visa if your flight details and scenario is the same as I have described in my response to you.

Hope this helps.

I just found this info online for Nigerians,

Further information

There are 2 assessment stages, initial and further assessment. So it's perfectly normal. Response time is between 7 to 8 weeks, it can get as long as 9 weeks.

Re: General Australian Student Visa Enquiries Part 3 by Softkey(m): 2:10pm On May 17, 2023
No cause for alarm, Further assessment is the 2nd stage which is normal, and after that the status changes to Finalised.

Some people assessment jumped from Inital to Finalised while others followed the 3 stages (Initial - Further - Finalised) so no need to worry.
