Please i need advice on this
Rewrite your English test for 20points.

The only visa you can apply for is a 489 visa which requires 50 points but it is not a PR, only a pathway.
No point going through the same process twice. Dust your book again and prepare for the English test.

@hordunayodt,

Your situation is not peculiar. Only a notification that the application has been alloted to a processing team.

Don't panic, you are on track.

hello everyone. Please i need you advice.

I have lodged my application for visa 189 and recently got an offer of admission for a research degree. Also, I had answered "yes" to question 39 of form 1221. Can anyone please advise if attaching the offer letter will aid or hinder my visa 189 application?

Thanks
It will not add anything to your application. You didn't state the question in no 39 though.

I am in Australia at the moment, I have few week left to bring my wife here. I have very important urgent question to ask you regarding my pregnant wife in Nigeria if only you can assist and put me through. I will appreciate swift response. Thanks.
What visa are you on?

If your wife medicals will include an X-ray, ishe can't come now until after she delivers.

No meaningful hospital will subject her to an X-ray because of the foetus.

@OP,

The essence of courtship is to understand each other as well as know if you can live together for the rest of your lives.

If whatever you have written here is true, I see no reason why you are still asking for advice when the handwriting is clearly on the wall.

In life, we all will surely face challenges at one point or the other. No one can escape it, only that the challenges may differ. If you happen to have financial issues in future, with this girl, you will be in hot soup. You would prefer death to life. Going by what you have described, she is not yet ready for a relationship.

She has had a lot gone wrong for and with her unresolved. She needs help in behaviour management and understanding life.

She offered to help you yet sings about it at every given opportunity. She constantly harass you about many things yet you remain in the relationship. Do you want to die young?

Since you are going to face a very stiff opposition from her family, there is no point hanging around with her. Let her go except you are tied down with free sex.

The earlier you realised she needs to go now, the better for you.

@OP,

Did you put up this post to be "hailed" by your likes?

For a start, before you cast the first stone, how many people have you helped to migrate?

How many immigrants have you helped to settle down in your country of residence?

How many have you helped to get a job?

How many have you shown the rope in your business?

It is always easy to throw stones at others when all evidence point to the fact that the thrower is more guilty of the accusation.

Creating a thread to encourage people to travel illegally is not only unwholesome but it is actually wickedness to the cause of the people you are championing for.
For every one successful illegal immigrant, there are hundreds of others who are unfortunate. For this type of sorry advice to come for you shows the warped mind of the average Nigerian on the street. Always willing to cut corners and never willing to do what is right, no matter how long they have lived outside the country.

To those thinking of migrating illegally, you will only make your life miserable as rules are getting tighter these days. Migrating is not difficult, you just need patience and the right place you can meet their requirements to move to.

And OP, next time you want to create a silly thread like this, you should have a convincing evidence of what you have done to help people migrate.

With all the numerous do it yourself threads in travel section for migration, you can still come up with this thrash. If people are not willing to read, they shouldn't blame anybody for their misfortune.

I am not conversant with EA. However, if your employer refuses giving you a reference, you can do a statutory declaration. Once the declaration is done, add letter of offer, payslip, bank statement to corroborate your claim.

A sample copy of the declaration is attached on the opening page.

@Kingbukaz,

Depends on the assessing body and number of years of experience in lieu of qualification required.

Read the requirements of the assessing authority on their website.

@KIKIADE, how did you handle the payslips issue, ive been working since 2005 and i cant get all the payslips too.

Also about the employment statement (employer template), i think once you've been working in the same Org., no need of multiple reference?

Pls kindly respond ASAP.

Thanks
For payslip, you don't need to present all the slips. Show about 2-3/year if you can and let the last payslip be included. Your bank statement will help you out in covering the other months/years.

Employment reference.. If you are in the same company since, you only need one letter from the company.

I believe when SUJYDEE is available, he will attend to your request. He has not been here for sometime. I didn't go through TRA, I might not be of help in that regard.

However, if you pattern your documents according to TRA's guidelines, you shouldn't have any issues.

But the thing is that I can't afford the money needed for undergraduate.
There is option of TAFE or private RTOs for diploma and advanced diploma courses. They are not as expensive as undergraduate courses.

It all depends on any guy who wants to help me and the time frame between which the person intends to get married.
Life is all about risks, as long as it is not a real marriage, there's nothing too bad about getting a divorce for a marriage that never took place.
Life is all about risk but the risk must be legally and morally justifiable. This is not what I can call help but trying to undermine a system which is moral irresponsibility. Marriage should not be denigrated to the level people can get on and get off at will. I do not belong to the school of thought of "the end justifies the means". I am particular about the means to which you arrive at your end. My sister, this desperation may land you in trouble. What you need is to put yourself together, find alternative legal means of achieving your aim. I will not be a party to this type of plan.

The country may be bad but it doesn't mean that the country is hopeless and you wouldn't make a breakthrough. What I believe you need at this stage is hope and believe in yourself while trusting God, who can do all things to help you out. No man holds the key to anybody's destiny and there can be an oasis in the desert. Your present situation may be frustrating but it is not permanent, it will soon pass.

One of my cousins married his sister here, and took her to Canada. When he was ready to marry he divorced and got married in Nigeria here and took his wife.
Till today his sister is still there with her kids.
The fact that he did it years ago and was "temporarily" successful with it doesn't make it right. Determine to get to your destination using the right channel and you will surely get there. Whatever we sow in life, we will surely reap. You will not be there when your cousin and his sister get to reap the fruits of their seed.

I can't just seat at home wasting my life. No jobs in Nigeria for now, and we don't know when one can get anyone.
Yes, you can't just sit at home, that's why you need to go out of your house, hit the street and do anything legal to make an income. My philosophy is "there is dignity in labour". No matter what you do as long as you don't steal or defraud people, it is a worthwhile venture to put food on the table. A lot of people refused to get dirty because of the opinions of myopic few. If you care not to mind what people say, you will be able to get your hands dirty to make ends meet. Little drops of water make a mighty ocean. A giant step begins with a leap. Start something, no matter how little, the Lord will make it great for you. Keep pushing on and you will sure get there.

Please if no anybody encourage them to help me. I beg,
Thanks again.
My encouragement is that you do it right. Follow due process to achieve your dream. Your situation may seem hopeless to you but be thankful for the gift of life. Some people are praying to have the challenges you have to escape theirs. Your situation is not and will not be permanent. Keep keeping on.

This is from someone who had in time past experienced plenty and drought. Do not block the good coming your way with this unwholesome plan.

It is well with you

@RealChinaza,

As much as everybody is willing to help you, there is little we all can do.

The suggestion you made is alright but I don't think it is something that can withstand the test of time. If a single guy consents to it, the law sees you as couple, he wouldn't be able to marry except you go through the process of divorce. That can only be done in the jurisdiction where the marriage was conducted.

Had it been chemical engineering has alternative for technician or draftsperson like other Engineering profession, you would have used it.

If you have the money, get on board under student visa and work your way to PR.

You are in a state of vulnerability, you need to exercise patience and take caution to prevent making a destiny wrecking decision.

Goodluck to you sis.

Children from 0-4 about the childcare part are we to pay for it or its also free?
NO, childcare is not free. Childcare fee is something that will drain your income weekly especially those who have four children of childcare age..

Childcare fee is between $87-120/day depending on the centre.

The government subsidise the cost through the childcare benefits. The percentage you get is dependent on your family income. You could get 80% or more subsidy and you can get 0% subsidy if your family income is above the threshold as assessed by centrelink.

Good morning E family,

While we are all hustling to fast tack every before Trump brother carry come, can the gurus in Australia enlighten us on how to go about our children education( school).

For those of us that are coming with our children, what documents should we get and how to register them in school every information will be highly appreciated.

TGIF.
If you come on PR, there is no difficult rule about schooling.

Children are expected to be in childcare or at home from ages 0-4.

In Kindergarten from age 4 but some can take at 3 for a test run.

Kids start primary school at 5 in reception.

What you need is preregister in a school of your choice ahead of time. You can put a three year old on waiting list in school two years ahead so he/she gets assured of a position.

No documents needed other than birth certificate.


I think I have written this before but I will write again. To enjoy childcare benefits for your children, their immunisation must be up to date under the"no jab, no pay" policy. When you are coming, come along with their immunisation record, take it to any hospital or private medical practice, the GP there will evaluate it and give you what you need to have more if need be.

It is free for kids. Once you complete the immunisation dosage, the kids record will be updated by the GP and you get the benefits..

Also you cannot submit an EOI without an English test result. But if you submit an EOI with a not-so-good english test result, you could always write another english test and update your existing EOI.
For Victoria, you can apply without filling the EOI. Once you are nominated, the state expects you to fill the EOI and send them the reference number to receive invitation from DIBP.

Moscow30,

What do you need English test for?
You already got invitation and I believe you have 60points already.

Part of the changes is the citizenship requirements.

Before now, to become a citizen, you must have lived in the country for four years on PR visa or you have lived legally for four years on any visa while you must be on PR for at least one year.

Example,

Sam arrived Australia on student visa in 2005 but got his PR in January 2009. Sam is eligible to apply for citizenship in Jan 2010.

Kylie arrived Australia on work visa in 2012 but got PR in 2013. Kylie is eligible for citizenship in 2016.


In the new rule, there is an English language test requirement in addition to the citizenship test.. This is no big deal.
Now, you have to be four years on PR to be eligible for citizenship. What does this mean, example of Sam. Sam and Kylie will have to wait after four years of receiving PR to be eligible for citizenship compared to when they only needed just a year.
