Great people, please I need the IOM website, please how can I search for it.

Here:

2posh:
I suggest you contact both IOM Australia and IOM Nigeria offices(separately) then decide which way to go based on the outcomes.

Their email addresses are below -

Australia - IOMAustralia@iom.int
Nigeria - iomlagosops@iom.int

Just send them a mail, they respond almost immediately.

Demi10, I'm going to RMIT too around 1st week of February. I've PM'ed you.

Demi10:
Chi50, good day. please can you share ur email with me. I am comimg to RMIT in February by God's grace. I will sincerely appreciate it so that you can put me through on some things. God bless you real good.

Thanks boss!

erictack203:
Congratulobiaaaaaa!!!!

Triggeredsam:
Can someone help triggeredsam and bhanjjie review their SOP please oooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh?

Dem go soon show, I guess they are a little busy or something. PM FutureDon, he has always shown his willingness to help. Pray he's free.

I can't thank you enough, especially as I had challenges during my application that needed me to call the school and Pretoria. I've made over one hour calls and used only 54 cents! Thanks so much.

deleyi20:
Congratulations Man, I'm so happy for you, moreso that you used the Telbo App information I shared earlier... I've been using the app since 2013, it's been a money saver God bless you bro.

Mehn, Chi50, I'm just over grateful to you, I don't know what more to say than thank you. I'll be there soon. Hope you're acclimatising well?

chi50:
congratulations my dear, I'm happy 4 u. RMIT is a fine school , I pass it almost every morning...

Mikey:
U're welcome my brother.. Do u know Ibeabuchi?? Guess u guys applied together

Not sure I know him.

@2posh thanks soo much. I'm following thee.

Tell the guy you made enquiries from teleperformance and you were told you don't need it except you really have it. Tell him your other friends who applied through pfl said they didn't use it too. Just make sure you have a good sop, chi50 reviewed mine.

enyinna4:
nawa oo, what is dz pfl guy telling me about then?!...most pple dat got diz grant tru dem didnt provide dat leta...why me?!...anyway, thanks jare

RedReact:
@Adetoi01, congrats man.

Thanks man, I appreciate.
@Shodur, please, do, they can be funny at times, my grant came since last month.
@Enyinna, you do not need it. If you attach such, they might try to confirm it. Also, they might put a "no further stay" clause.
My 2cents. Guess the gurus should know better.

Thanks, Mikey, I followed your advice, I called pretoria this morning and I was told they had made a decision since last month. Thanks, man.

Mikey:
More good news, Congratulations bro..

To the glory of almighty God, I've been granted my study visa. I'm sooooo happy. Thanks to the whole house. Chi50, I owe you a deep gratitude. FutureDon, you're the don of the house. Every other person, I appreciate. The person who shared info about using Telbo to make international calls, my heartfelt gratitude. I've called Australia and South Africa for over an hour, and I'm yet to spend 1 dollar!
My timeline: submitted my application on 2nd November, medicals on 4th, the application got to Pretoria on 6th, granted on 20th. Pfl said the stuff was delivered to their junk box , called Pretoria today and was told about the grant since last month.
I'm elated. On to IOM now.
Thanks again e-family.
RMIT! Here I come!

Abeg, I need prayers o, I dey wait for my grant too. RMIT too.

Demi10:
@ayinsyd RMIT in Melbourne, February by God's grace.

Sorry about that bro, best wishes in "reshooting", the house will definitely come to your aid.

Babahafusaa:
Hello house, I need some advice here plz...I submitted my student visa application class 572 SVP on 27th of Oct with Teleperformance Lagos..the application got to Pretoria on 30th same month/week. But ever since then I haven't received any feedback from the embassy...my commencement date as stated on my ecoe is 1st of December and I indicated 28th of this month as my departure date....i mailed them on Monday and I was replied immediately stating that my application is still under process. Iam yet to do my medicals sef.... also waiting for their directive before doing that...today is 19th my departure date is 28th commencement date 1st of december.....i need advice and opinions pls...what step do you think I can take @ this stage?..

Finally got a feedback from them on the 27th of nov with a Refusal note


Reasons for refusal is as stated below
---------------------------------------------

1). Generic SOP I.e not specific
i guess my sop wasn't explanatory enough

2). Irrelevant intended course
I have BSC in public health and i combined 2 science related courses and a management course for Advance Diploma in Management Certificate (572) class. courses are as below
(i) CERTIFICATE III IN AGED CARE

(ii) DIPLOMA IN COMMUNITY SERVICE WORK

(iii) ADVANCE DIPLOMA IN MANAGEMENT which is the main course others are just prerequisites and i feel MANAGEMENT is required in all organisations.


3). No work experience in Health Science, and courses selected to justify reasons to undertake the courses i intend to practice in Aussy.
i actually indicated Teaching of integrated science subject in a secondary school as my work experience.

4). (GTE) Genuine Temporary entrant issue

As i indicated that am a share-holder in a family company with proof and also indicated am in a relationship but not legally engaged.


NOW AM PLANNING TO GET A NEW eCOE AGAINST FEBRUARY Admission.

I NEED THE HOUSE TO HELP ME PLAN HOW AND WHEN TO RE-APPLY SO AS TO AVOID THE ABOVE MISTAKE FROM REPEATING ITSELF as am anticipating the FEBRUARY Admissions.

I NEED YOU GUYS SUPPORT AND OPINIONS AS I WANT TO CARRY THE HOUSE ALONG THIS TIME.

My email is babahafustic@gmail.com

God bless

Congrats demi

Demi10:
What a glorious way to start the month of December, awesome, awesome and thanks to the Almighty God is all I can say. I just got my mail confirming the grant of My Visa.
I am indeed grateful to God.
My only regret is that I didn't apply with my family because I didn't know about SVP. I have applied before I knew about the fact I don't need to submit proof of funds.
My question is please what do I need to do now to apply for my family, I trust God to do this as soon as possible. I pray for everyone still expecting, you shall all receive your goodnews in Jesus name. Amen
God bless everyone in this forum and thank you all

Omo, this one na ground opener for the month, congrats. Abeg pray for me o

ewagbamio:
At last!
My efamily, kindly help me thank the Almighty God for my successful visa application
It's been a very tough and challenging journey but God saw us through. Lots of little mistakes here and there
I barely have time to sit still and carefully plot things the way I wanted but the great ladies and gents on this thread are from another planet, I thank you all specially.

FutureDon! expect me in Queensland. Your work on my SoP was not in vain you see? 2Posh, scratch that, 10000000Posh, you have been wonderful, Erictack203, Chi50, bellong, Ferdimako, bossladyMo, scrollmeout and so many others.

My Timeline
1. Medicals for me and wife: Mid October (I unwisely filled so many things on the wifey's form for HAP ID and she ended up doing so many tests! Not the best thing to do, please just say no to most of the questions -- I'm talking particularly to the health workers here. Yes, you don't plan to enter an hospital, you don't plan to deliver there, you don't plan to do anything, no? You just want to be on your own there )

2. 11th Nov Gathered all my Docs and Lodged at Teleperformance Abj after making an appointment online

3.. Application got to Pretoria on 13th Nov

4. Decision made on 27th Nov

5. I got the email on 30th Nov

I didn't include my statement of account. I'm self employed and I have a valid Tax Clearance Cert so it makes a lot of things easier.
your sop is very, very important.

Westerners, in my little interaction with them, are generally thorough and they don't just assume and over look stuff. So please take time out and repeatedly review your docs.

I did everything DIY via Australia thread on NL and the above is my story. IOM is next

Thanks, just sent them a mail.

Mikey:
I know 2 people that submitted their visa application 2nd n 4th respectively and have gotten their grants exactly a week ago. Either they're still verifying ur docs or u gotta call dem to hear from them

..

E-family, please, do weekends count among the three weeks wait for svp573 visa grant? I've been waiting since like forever. I submitted on 2nd of this month.

...

They are taking medications after death!

FutureDon:
... I have lost the zeal to keep reviewing SoPs for people. Imagine someone asking you to review SoP or answering personal questions after they had already lodge their application, baba nla time wasting.

Mine is for masters.

gbade11:
Really?! Mine is almost 3wks now o. Ple wch programme did u apply for. I applied for grad cert

gbade11:
I applied but waiting for their response

Since when? I got mine between 2 to 3 days.

Nope, not yet in RMIT, although I've gotten admission. I'm on the visa issue now. Chi50 just went to Melbourne some days back, guess she will be able to give us update soon.

ada4all:
Are u in RMIT? If yes, pls hw is d school? Are there Nigerians there? Are jobs in Melbourne and wat kinda jobs....what is d pay like....i would appreciate any feedback.

Team RMIT, though it seems it's a one-man team.

ada4all:
Hi hi peeps....anyone going to UTS or Bond or RMIT here?

Congrats dear, safe trip. What is the cost of the ticket you got through IOM?

chi50:
Good evening my people. I'm happy to announce that I just checked in at MMIA for my flight to Melbourne. Booked thru IOM and using Emirates. Do remember me in ur prayers, will keep u informed regarding my trips. I pray more visa grants be released on this efamily this year. Amen

Congrats man. This month is loaded!

joeyf:
Subclass 573,medical frontloaded,Applied on the 16th of oct ,lodgment date 23rd oct ,grant 12nov

November to remember indeed! Happy for you sir. My own dey load too.

EEAA:
Beloved e-family, with gratitude to God Almighty and all of you, I testify to God's faithfulness in my life. My SVP 573 visa has been granted with a dependent (my daughter).

I applied on 22nd Oct., lodgement on 26th, visa granted today (9th Nov.)

God bless you all for your support. Great news will continue to flow IJN

Medicals can only be done with hospitals recognised by the DIPB, check their website if there's any in PH, I only know of the ones in Abuja. Lagos has too.[quote author=okpas12 post=39802863][/quote]

As you've been told, booking an appointment ain't necessary, get your documents certified, passport photographs of the applicants with white background, your cash, international passport and yellow card, that's all. If you're lucky people ain't much there, you'll spend less than 30 minutes there. Best wishes. November is here! Positive news awaits us all!

ewagbamio:
Thanks man, will do just that. I'll just book for myself since i'm the primary applicant.

One quick question, like how long does it take to complete the process in the teleperformance office? I plan a short trip to and fro from PH. Is it something one can complete in like two hours?

Thanks once again

Waoh, congrats man. This is a season to rejoice!

Ifeco1:
My people!!!! My God has done it. My SVP 573 visa grant just dropped. I'm so happy rn. Brizzy I'm coming. Thanks to every one on this thread, I'm greatful.

This is surely a November to remember!

deleyi20:
Congrats Brother, This is a November to Remember in This Group!!!

Yeah, you'll need to provide the recipient details such as bank name, account number, account name, swift code, amongst others. Just ask the school for the details you'll need to make a telegraphic payment, then walk into your bank of choice and tell them you need Form A. About the rate, mine was done using the official exchange rate, that is 1 dollar to 199 (based on the official exchange rate for the day)

scrollmeout:

Thanks. For form A will I need to provide the recipients bank account? And what is the rate please?

To pay on immi account, I need to enter my card details. The account number isn't specified.

Use Form A. I did mine with sterling. The commission with them is 1 percent. And it reflected there within 3 days. Ask your bank too. Best regards.

scrollmeout:
Thanks pingu2k5, 2 posh, chi50, and Adetoi01. Okpas12, we'll pop champagne this weekend. Bellong, i sight you too.

Pls house, which is the 'cheapest' way to pay my application fees, seeing the high exchange rates from banks and charges that come with it? Or is GTB Mastercard my best bet. I recently paid for something in USD and they charged me @ N231/dollar. I'm paying AUD7200.

Please help a brother out

Congrats. More testimonies loading.

lumzy1:
The wait from VETASSESS is finally over. Got a positive assessment for my occupation this morning.
