Good morning guys,

Visa subclass 573 granted to my brother. Application date: February 4, Date of Receipt of Application at Pretoria: Feb 11, grant date: Feb 18, Medicals: front loaded.

Thanks to you all for invaluable information gained here.

Special thanks to Futuredon and Dr Juliana.

PS: he didn't use English Language Test. His Uni cleared him based on the fact that his OND was taught in English, his COE contained 'English Language Test - Pass, Test Type: Other'. I mentioned this because this was the subject of much debate and we were quite worried before Futuredon put our mind to rest.

Lol wait you have to apply through their representative.but I don't think UC needs an agent.how is ielts delaying you?it does not take time.its better write it and hold it.that's what I did even tho I don't need it.
I have my ielts and a letter from my school just incase I need it.nothing is time wasting

It wont be a bad Idea if Oga Justwise will start a new thread/allow a new thread strictly for Australia Skilled worker migrants to share their experience as I having been scanning the thread for sometime myself so as to gain from experience to no avail

happytbaby:
Yes, depending on the school. You will need to ask your previous institution for a 'letter of proficiency in English Language". The University also requested for transcripts to be sent directly from his previous institution.

The letter of proficiency was also submitted for the visa application.

Hello happytbaby, many thanks for this very useful information.

I understand you need to give your previous institution an address that you want the letter of proficiency to be sent - I believe this would be the University in your case?
If yes, did you send the same letter (Carrying OZ's university address) with your visa application?

I am asking because I am unsure if this letter of proficiency can be used for the 489 provisional pr as well - and if it should be addressed to VETASSESS or Aus's embassy?

Everyone's input will be greatly appreciated. Thanks

This is the information i got. First things first, IELTS. This is the exam required from all applicants to study in australia. You must take this exam cause you will use in in both getting admission and applying for visa. The required score is 6.0. The fees are 30k in nigerian money but here in south africa, its more costly. For instance, i paid 2100rand equivalent to 42000k nigerian money. Am working hard to see that i pass and gain admission to advance diploma. Nigerians have a good chance of passing this exam cause we already use english as a means of communication and that is what they want to know. This is the very first thing you should do if you want to gain admission and apply for visa. I will narrate the second step as i got it from that information.

ferdimako:

You must do any of the approved test of English for any PR application. Letter of proficiency is to avoid doing any but some schools insist more.

alhajichuks:

Thanks for the response ferdimako,
I guess my concern now is will the embassy (visa processing authority) accept the letter of proficiency?
Thanks

Hi alhajichuks,

You may want to start by visiting this website - http://www.studyinaustralia.gov.au/
You will also find it helpful to read (thoroughly) through previous posts on this page. Newbies (like myself) have found numerous experience shared here quite helpful - at least to understand where to start from.
