Okay thanks alot will do asap. Ì am applying for a student visa at the University of Melbourne with fully funded scholarship please do I need to have funds in my account if granted the scholarship?

This is my last question I pronise. God bless you

If it is an AL1 university, you don't need to provide a bank statement. However, the case officer may choose to ask for it. Not compulsory to include in your application except asked.

However, it is important you have the minimum fund required in case it is asked.

Thank you for the swift response. I am going for MPhil in Civil Engineering and its fully funded scholarship.

If you have experience in civil engineering and closely related occupations, you can start the process now. Check the PR thread as we are already derailing this thread.

I have dropped the question but no one is replying and Im in the middle of an application.

I want to be sure how seamless it is to get a PR as a student in Aussie and how many years of post graduate work permit you can get.

It is easy and not easy at the same time. It is dependent on a number of factors including your course of study which is very important and crucial to qualifying for the process. Your occupation must be on the occupation list and also must meet other points requirements.

Your first step should be to check the PR thread and read about the process and requirements. Studying in Australia will not automatically grant you PR except you meet the requirements.

Goodluck.

I'll get back to you when he is found, I hope he can still be treated at 70.....he was 70 in March.

The description of your dad's current presentation does not fit the characteristics of a bipolar disorder. He is not showing maniac symptoms, although there may be a depressive phase but the current information does not support bipolar characteristics.

My guess will be early onset of dementia. You should take him for proper diagnosis at the hospital. If it is what I suspect, he is at high risk of absconding from the home and may find it difficult remembering route back home which is likely why he got missing.

He will possibly require 24/7 which unfortunately your mum cannot provide. A lot of patients with dementia, especially the old women are generally classified as witches and wizards due to ignorance of the Nigerian society.

Please look after the man. Unfortunately, your mum represents typical behaviour of religious zealots who forsook the sound doctrines of righteousness and love to champion hatred and denominationalism. Such people are none of Christ except they repent.

Your brother grew up with poor foundation and will take the grace of God, committed person to help him realise his path will end in destruction.

I pray you all find peace and rest from this. This phase shall pass.

Good day everyone, I decided to pursue a Masters in Philosophy from the University of Melbourne.

Please is there anyone that has applied to this university and is the automatic scholarship valid with stipends, also is there any chance the English test can be wave since my degree in the last 5 years and research work is in English which is an option from the school in order to wave the English test.

Please I need advice and guidelines as I am doing it myself for the September intake. Thanks and God bless

Driving on the freeway is fine, roads are good and sometimes I wonder, why limit the speed so much? 110km max, I think only NT allows 130km.
Like why?

I usually do 140km on free way. From Sydney - Adelaide, I did between 160 - 180 on one very long but lonely road. My GPS lost signal and I missed the right way...
I get over excited on long drive and i sometimes unintentionally do over the limit. I copped three tickets from Adelaide to Melbourne in 2017 I think, 9 demerit points with some painful AUD.


NT has a long stretch of road on SA border that has no speed limit previously. That is where car manufacturers used to test cars as I was told back in the days.

Ballina to GC, now that's a very short interstate drive but 10-13 drive ain't short at all.
But man, you did 28 hrs from Adelaide to Perth? That means you didn't stop at all? That's just not realistic. cheesy

No, not a straight drive. It was 16 hours and 14 hours (including getting to final destination) it was about 30 hours altogether.

I did Sydney to Adelaide in 17 hours one way too. Driving on the freeway is fun. Only be careful of the ferals especially the Roos.

Thanks. I will talk to him about it and observe him too.

There is no need for any talk. He has shown you in clear picture the content of his character. Your talk will not change his belief, disposition and views about the position of a woman in marriage.

The options you have is either take a walk now or learn to live like a maid if and/or when you marry.

You don't marry someone with the intention that he or she will change. That will be an injustice you do to yourself and unborn children.

Please what does Australia mean by *Pro rata Occupation*?

This mean that highly popular skills or occupations will be restricted and the invitations are sent pro-rata (limited number of invites in that skill category).

Summary is that those occupations have defined number of invitation to give other occupations a shot.

@corjay,

Both of you can still be primary applicant. You can both submit EOI and whoever gets the invitation first becomes the principal applicant.

That being said, have you checked the conditions for nomination from Victoria or New South Wales? Other option is customer service manager for your occupation.

Your husband can go through the RPL route (recognition of prior learning) for ACS assessment.

Goodday all, please am in the process of submitting my 491 visa, i have work with 4 employers and 2 of them didnt remit any tax or pension but i have bank statement and payslip to prove salary payment, the other 2 i have their bank statement, payslip, tax cert and pension, during my assessment these were the document i sent to TRA. At this visa stage, i was told that they dont recognize bank statement and payslip, was told tax or pension is the priority to prove previous emloyment. Please how true is this. @bellong please i need you input and anybody that can help out, so i can upload my documents ASAP.

The bank statement will serve as a third party evidence which will be enough in addition to other employment documents.

You will be fine.

Please am new to this group and I know nothing about Australia PR. I will be 31 by July, am married, am a medical doctor and I have up to 3 years experience working as a doctor. I have written General Ielts with scores LRWS-7.5,8.5,7,7. I filled in the eligibility for visa 189 and am getting 70 points. Please I got an info from a telegram group that I can assess my skill under a health related skilled occupation as going through Australian Medical Board would require me writing AMC. Please house, which health related occupations can I assess my skill under and how do I go about it?

Why not write PLAB for the UK and practise there for at least a year and then consider relocation to Australia. It will be easier that way.

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?

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.

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

Happy new years Uncle B.

You keep sneaking in and out tongue

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 cool angry

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.

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.
