Ohh... thanks sir...

The thing is that.. I'm planning to go to Australia by 2022..ie my final year...
I'm currently saving my money and I intend to learn a new skill in IT maybe software development and plumbing because I heard law can't Grant u PR there

I'm just confused as to how to migrate especially due to the fact that I might not have up to the 3yrs and above experience needed for the 189 visa

What are you studying?

Learning IT may not improve your chance except you get a quslification in the IT or plumbing. Qualification is an important requirement for the process.

189 is not the only subclass available. Have you read the thread?

Heltinking:
What's the GIS industry like in Australia? can masters in GIS enables PR?

Definitely

Naijabad:
Is there any likelihood of Australian authorities allowing new students in this year? I am aware no body is allowed into the country cause of Covid-19.

Until international flight restriction is lifted, no foreigner can fly in. The earliest that can happen is in August considering that the three phases of easing restrictions was released yesterday

Olivertripzz:
Please, I studied Physics Education Bsc Ed. and I'll love to have my masters in Medical Physics and also love to have it in Aussie.. I actually finished with a CGPA of 2.75 thereabout... What's my chances of admission, what's the application procedure.
And what are the possible school suggestions for me...
And How marketable is the course over there?

When did you graduate? Do you have experience as a teacher?

You are a science teacher if you have experience. You will be better off starting the PR process than committing millions to school when your end game is PR. It is easier from the outside most of the times than applying onshore because you have all the states to apply for nomination. People onshore can only get nomination in state of residence except they have a job offer in another state or relocate.

Check the PR thread and read the process.

tourphland:
Good day House,

I’m interested in masters in law, i want to know the prospective with such masters as (it’s 1year) and i intends to stay back after study. Will it be possible?

Also as a lawyer in Nigeria if masters in law won’t work out for me or is not lucrative, what other masters are good and that can help one get post study visa, or apply for pr

Go through the course or department's website to identify which of the courses will qualify you to be registered with the Law society of that state post study. If the course can give you opportunity to be registered and called to the bar in the state, you are on the pathway to PR as a solicitor or Barrister.

If the course or program will not give you membership of the Law society, it is a waste of resources. If your aim is to stay post study, you must have a plan from now.

A lot of people grab any course just to get to Australia and then take many years to find directions while some end up being sent back home.

Don't let any agent deceive you into study any course to get the visa. Most of the time it ends in tears.

Goodluck

Etinosa1234:
pls..in subclass 189 visa..does having a relative in Australia bring points?

No, it doesn't.

cally3D:
Yeah thanks it was helpful. but specifically I intend to pursue a masters degree in health sciences. Does the student visa allow one to study and work at the same time

Yes, you can work and study.

Happy new years Uncle B.

You keep sneaking in and out

Some people do not know how to thrive for balance.

So if they want to place something above their family, it better be their calling e.g. Apostle Paul them them and not a job/living.

Unfortunately, only a minute few will ever fulfill their calling or purpose. Most are just chasing the wind under the guise of 'working, earning a living or becoming independent'.

I still think the family is the first ministry sha.

I don't sneak. It is you that disappeared

The family is the basic unit of life if I may put it that way. When an assignment is committed to a person, it is not to put the family unit in jeopardy under any circumstance. Anyone that chooses to have a biological family cannot put his calling above his or her family as it is a recipe for disaster. Like you put it, the balance is the key and I do know that grace is always available in abundance for it.

There is no evidence that Paul had a nuclear family unit of his own. Most information available are speculations. Paul has always been a journeyman even before his conversion..

I will send you a mail if you have not changed your email.

bukatyne:
8. Your calling/purpose is different from your job or source of livelihood. Find your calling and fulfill it. While you might place your calling above your family, never place your job/work above your family.


I have started writing an epistle

Can you explain the above?

Happy 3 days aunty Bukkie.

ihongba:
Good morning,

Please when you are submitting your documents for assessment to vetasses did you upload your transcripts on their application websites or its just your school that will send the transcript to them.

The instruction is clear on VETASSES website. Your school must send the transcript. If you upload, they will still wait for the official one before finalising your assessment.

Hello all,
Please I have a question, I am looking at the criteria for 190 visa class for New South Wales, and I noticed under the priority skilled occupation list, the availability of my occupation is listed as 'Limited" does anyone really know what that means? I attached an image here.

Thanks

Limited means there is limit to the number of people to nominate for the occupation.

Ayooluwa18:
Yes he lives in a regional area in NSW. I am doing family sponsor.

Family sponsor nomination is strictly done by DHA and the queue is long. They hardly invite high numbers of family sponsored applications.

If NSW has your occupation on her list, apply to NSW too.

Cheers

Bamz:
Thanks for everything you do on this thread. For you and people like tunlex01 et al, God bless y'all.

Amen... God bless you too.

cola1:
Good morning @bellong, @tunlex and othere gurus.
I say this on the eligibility requirements of NT.
That offshore applicant must have a job in region already.
How posible is this please

Not all the occupations require job offer. However for the purpose of your question, it is possible to find a job from offshore.

NT companies sometimes struggle to fill positions in the region because people don't want to relocate to the place. You could be lucky to find a position if you have skills employers need. The spin to it is the economic impact of COVID-19 may prevent international recruitment drive.

slimy205:
The last invitation for april was 95points minimum, do we stand a chance because I have 70points

State nomination is the best way to receiving faster ITA with the current trend of high scores.

olystic:
Am sticked at biometric and medical because of the lockdown in lagos. I have sent a complaint Mal to DHA but received a generic reply. What do I do next.

The department knows that worldwide services have been impacted. The 28 day limit has been suspended. You will be given enough time to get them done.

This is an excerpt of information available on DHA website

"Disruption of services
Some services relating to the visa application process may be impacted by COVID-19 and a range of services we rely on are increasingly unavailable.

This includes overseas panel doctors (see below), English language testing facilities, biometric collection and paper application lodgement centres.

While these services are unavailable, many applicants cannot meet visa requirements. Applicants will be given additional time to complete checks and provide the requested information."

You have nothing to worry about..

@Ayooluwa18,

Is your relative living in regional NSW? Did you apply for family sponsored visa or the state nominated 491?

This thread and previous thread have enough information for people to be able to self-analyse their own chances.

Putting up your profile shows you have not read the thread. The beauty of do it yourself is for individuals to read themselves and then ask questions where stuck. Asking basic question of what are my chances shows you have not read the thread.

You should know that nobody works with DHA that sends invitation. Hence, we don't know anybody's chances but you can use the information to assess your eligibility.

Please read people.

Printing machinist and fashion designer are trade occupations. Do you have qualification in fashion design? I don't think you will be qualified for printing machinist because it is completely different from what you explained you do.

Graphics designer is an ICT occupation.

Do you sew the clothing yourself or you sell clothing online? If you only sell, you will not get a positive assessment.

You mentioned you are planning to marry asap, what is your fiance's qualification and experience?

gonon:
I have a similar issue as i also want to use my NYSC as work experience so that i can claim 15 points. Can someone tell use what documents we can use to prove our work experience starting from NYSC?

@pwwears.

You guys should read two pages backward. This NYSC experience issue has been discussed.

@Azzyola,

You are in the better position as the principal applicant. Geophysicist is a level 1 occupation, so you will need to add your MSc for the assessment to get a positive assessment. However, VETASSES may not approve any of your pre MSc experience.

densel:
Please gurus in the house, l learn that both visa processing and assessment is now suspended until July. Please can someone substantiate if these information is correct. Thank you

@ Bellong, Tunlex01

There is no specific information that visa processing is suspended. However, with the international movement restrictions in place world over, it is fair to say that temporary visa processing may be put on hold. No point approving a visa nobody can use.

Meanwhile, this is the information available on their website:

"Applicants should be aware that some services relating to the visa application process may be impacted by COVID-19."

gladysene89:
Dear @bellong pls can you help with guidance on which occupation to go with.

I studied Chemistry for Bsc. Was an HSE officer during service. Research officer for 18months, now a research Analyst for a year.

Please what occupation do I opt for skills assessment?

Which industry are you a research analyst?

lesliemanzano:
Hi, I have a question. Is it possible to rent a car in Australia without using a credit card? I know that in some countries there are no problems, but this is the first time I've traveled to Australia. Thank you

If you have a debit card, you can use a debit card. Credit card is not compulsory but you need a card.

bhanjjie:
Boss @bellong, I have a query for you;

A couple currently onshore has been invited to apply for PR. The wife is about 3 weeks due to having a baby. Should they proceed to lodge the PR and add the baby afterward or wait to have the baby and apply for the PR thereafter?

Thanks

The couple should apply now. When the child cones, they can call to add additional family member

[quote author=lowsugar post=88243955][/quote]An occupation may be on the list and not sponsored by any state. Before you do any assessment, ensure there is a state sponsoring the occupation.

To answer your question, if a state is sponsoring the occupation, your spouse can apply.

[quote author=SISTERjSISTER post=88222943][/quote]

Thank you. Welcome back too..

gonon:
Hello, please here is my case with questions

Age = 32, will be 33 in May
IELTS = LSRW = 8.5, 8.0, 6.5, 7.5
Marital = Single
Degree = MSc from UK uni Renewable Energy
Engineering
B.Eng from FUTO electrical engineering

Can i add NYSC as work experience? If yes, how?

Do you have evidence of salary paid at the level for your occupation during NYSC? If you have, you can add it to your experience. You need minimum of 3 years experience to claim experience points.

Meanwhile, you don't need to include your MSc, it is not relevant except you want to nominate a related occupation. MSc and BSc are both 15 points.

Adesomo24:
I've done all that and I know the next steps to take. I just needed to know if i stand a chance at a positive assessment based on my details. My job description is closely aligned with PR professional so that's the occupation I intend to assess.

Your question was ambiguous. As long as your job descriptions align with the ANZSCO for your nominated occupation, you should be fine.

OmenaVI:
Thank you for responding.

We're still within the timeline but it keeps changing (8-10 months, 7-9months then now 10-11 months). Very annoying because I thought it was supposed to be reducing

Expect it to be longer. The current pandemic has created significant delays with all visa processing. Immigration staffs are working at reduced capacity due to social distancing and the work that can be done from home is limited.

Be patient, as long as you already have the invite and submitted an application, you will sure get it. Let the country get through this period first.

Adesomo24:
