Good morning everyone, my passport got stolen with my mum car and it has expired last month, please can i just apply for re-issue of a new one or how do i go about it.

iriferi:

Hi, Futuredon can help put you through. Futuredon (boss) help this one abeg

debsty:
Thanks Kubbiebrownie,

Thanks for the direction. Had no idea at all. I have done it now and it indicated that the scores would reach the destination on a day or two.

Just to mention to everyone, I think the PTE Academic is not bad at all. Anyone intending to write an English test should go for it , though quite pressured, you need to concentrate fully for the 3hrs you have to complete it. But its quite rewarding in the end.

Cheers

iriferi:

I think you have to speak to an immigration officer.
since we are in a new Government era some rules might have changed

My bags were not opened by border patrol here. I declared my goods in d passenger card n during security check here my bags were sniffed b dogs.. I was scared oh because dogs scare me. But they were nice generally n organised. Anyway I'm still at d beautiful airport looking around. I pray this country favours us all.

FutureDon:


Iriferi, I hail you.

timikenzo2 I may be able to offer suggestions/advise based on my experience applying to PhD programs. I must warn you that it is a tedious process. Yes, there are scholarships but very competitive. I am not saying these to scare you but to sort of paint a picture of what lies ahead. Yes, you need to secure a supervisor before your app can be considered for admission/scholarship. I would contact as many potential supervisors as possible.

lusen:

Good day. I have plans to do my masters degree in architecture in Australia too. I've applied to deakin. what are my chances? I finished with a 2-2. which uni are you? any advice for me? looking forward to hearing from you. thanks.

timikenzo2:
I am most grateful .....Are you on scholarship? I don't mind paying my fees.....just to know what the application process is like and how long it takes getting a supervisor. Can I drop my mail address ?

chetaRay:
PLZ I GOT ADMISSION FOR MASTERS FROM GRIFFITH UNIVERSITY.

I HAVE PAID MY FEES LAST WEEK ND WANT TO PROCESS MY ECOE FROM THE SCHOOL TRU MY AGENT ( BCIE)

BUT MY AGENT WIC IS BCIE IS REQUESTING THAT I SUBMIT A THREE MONTH STATEMENT OF ACCOUNT FROM MY FATHER TO ENABLE ME GET MY ECOE.

SO MY DEAR BROS ND SIS AT GRIFFITH UNIVERSITY OR ANYONE WITH GOOD INFORMATION IS DIS DEVELOPMENT A NORMAL ONE OR PART OF THE PROCESS TO GET A ECOE.

BCOX BCIE ARE REALLY GETTING ME VERY ANGRY WITH THEIR DEMANDS AS THE DAY GOES BY. PLX I NEED UR REPLIES AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. @ ALL

iriferi:

it is not normal for them to hold your ECOE pending when you provide a statement of account.
that said, BCIE has a 90% success rate when it comes to Australia Visa (I guess) and so they are trying to maintain that record.
what branch of bcie? Abuja or Lagos?

chetaRay:



@iriferi

its dia lagos branch oo. its not getting it from BCIE. but they said dey need to submit the statement to griffith university before they will send my ecoe

owenklay:
Hi all,

Got my 574 visa yesterday....applied 15 May from the UK. Heading to Newcastle, NSW. Anyone heading there or currently based around that axis should holla.

This thread has been so so so helpful. Thanks to you all. Now I can get to contribute meaningfully and hope to give 'real-life updates' when I get to Australia.

Cheers!
