Hello,

Thanks Bellong for your response. Actually for the IELTS, I had 7.5 in each section except writing where I had 8 , Also I intend to still be 32 by the time I put in my application (Fingers crossed).

For the qualification, My 8 years is post BSc , 5 years of which is post ICAN. I am seriously hoping they will consider the whole 8 years , as I have been working in the same Company since I graduated and very much relevant to my chosen profession since day 1.

Thanks.

Hi all, thanks for responses, greatly invaluable. Ping2uk, thanks for your response.
Two things I worry about from your comments relates to the ones on experience and ielts. On experience , I am going for the external auditor , and I have actually done that since I had my Bsc in business admin, I have got a reference letter to support this, hopefully the whole 8 years would be considered. Also I have put together all docs from ICAN and BSc as I had some 4 papers exemption, and I have also included the handbook for the bsc courses, however I don't have the one for ICAN, do you reckon ICAA would ask for that?

For the IELTS, I did the general , did they specifically ask for the academic module during ur application? Nothing on their website says this. I have a friend who also sent the general but it was returned on the basis that he did not have 7 in each section and nothing was said about whether it was academic or general. Hopefully they would not mind either as am about to complete my docs to send to them. I will let the house knw if it is accepted.

Thanks again Ping2uk, will expect your response.

FutureDon:


Congrats on your visa sis, I happy for u well well. See below for a response to your question;

''Depending on the student’s circumstances, OSHC that starts up to a month before their course commences could be purchased. It is the student’s responsibility to make sure they don’t enter Australia before their OSHC begins.'' (copied from International Education website).

So basically, you can make an adjustment to your OSHC (at a cost, I believe) by contacting your insurance provider or your institution - if you arranged yours through them.

bellong:
@Chi50,

I guess your question has been answered. I only know you can enter 4 months before your program starts but must have covering health insurance for the period. This is not different from what Futuredon posted.

IOM offers subsidized ticket and baggage allowance. It is not a bad service. However, if you have a long transit in Dubai, you wouldn't be lodged in a temporary hotel for the next flight unlike if you book without them.

laminaria:

hello chi50, if your question is about oshc, oga bellong & great futuredon has said it all, but if otherwise pls re-qoute me, IOM is good mail them and get booking confirmation. it takes two weeks for the processing. wlc on board!

plz my able e- family. I want to prove my home tie to my country by using my job offer letter cox I'm still working dia but the problem is DAT my name was mis-spelt in d offer letter. I know it can't be sent to Pretoria and wat if I swear an affidavit about it can my application fly.

chetaRay:
plz reply me @ futuredon laminara chi50 ichilax lilspiceyy weemee

chi50:

I dnt understand u. you can only use ur offer letter as home tie if it is clearly stated in d letter that d job will still be waiting for u wen u return. If u are 4 svp, then remember there are still other ways to prove ur gte.
An offer letter is however impt as evidence of ur work history so I guess u can swear an affidavit for it if u can't have it corrected. if ur employer is also willing to give u a ref letter, den it can also be stated there.
best of luck to u
