My fellow brothers and sisters in the house, pretoria was happy to reject me Visa today. Reason was that Employer was not verified and that no Letter of Future Employment, subclass-573,(SVP) paid AuS13,700 and has saved about AuS7,450 for complete 1yrs fees. Total: AuS21,000. I added my landed property docs, marriage certificates, house plan, children birth certs, employment histories, first aid certificates, IELTS and PTE blast them over.

So guys tell me, what else does pretoria needs? My MD of my Company was mad at this, they didn't call any1 or even me, he even wanted to use his lawyers to write them, I told him not to bother, every1 must not travel, some are meant to help others to succeed here and do stuffs. Australia should understand that we are not Hungry in Nigeria. I will keep up with my business and clap for people who gets their grants. Happy New Month.

Chai! So sorry bro

Harmony222:
are u applyin for UG or PG? Btw AL3 means Assessment Level 3

Hi Harmonny. Good to see you again.

If she stole it from somebody, she MUST return it or leave my house. But from the govt?...I will warn her not to repeat it, but we must use that one to establish some business, and use some to settle EFCC

Thanks aleori and ericktac. its a lot clearer now

lawland:
If you don't include her now, you won't be able to add her again unless you prove that the relationship was not existing at the time of your application. Its just gonna be hard. Are you coming for masters?

Thanks bro, no I can't afford masters, so I'm doing advanced diploma

@gregdavid
Justwise, please take this man and bring back bosslady. Meanwhile, thanks Lawland and aleori for your clear response. But suppose I don't include her in my visa application but later want to do it after the visa is out, any hope? I am asking this because I may not make up my mind too soon, and folks there say 9ja girls are scarce, meaning I have to decide here

@Lawland thanks for your reply.

Please how easy is it coming back home to marry, as a student, and going back with her immediately, or is it advisable to get married here before leaving so as to make it easier for her to join

Dear all,

Pls I want to find out from those who have gotten their offers, can an extended family member (with different surnames) sponsor someone on SVP? I heard yes from some, and no from some, thats why am throwing it to the house to clear my confusion. Thanks all

erictack203:
Send an email to the general email and copy African Student Hub. Tell them you were doing prayer section with Deacons and Pastors in your church and missed their calls, that they should call you back.

What if he says he was having his bath, or better gives no reason?

NNBB2012:
I'm good, thank you. Just 3yrs,11months and 22days. Any reason for asking?

You forgot hours and minutes

lawland:
Vocational and training, Assessment level 3 for Nigeria. ..

Hi Lawland.

Are you saying advanced diplomas are not on SVPs too?

This how you can set-up a skype account:


1Sign in to your account.
2 In the Manage features section, select Skype Number.
3 Click Get a Skype Number and follow the instructions to complete the purchase

Nice one. What visa subclass was it

erictack203:
My School is acu (Australian Catholic University). They didn't ask for Bank Statement. Also, you can build a Bank Statement on a Subsequent deposit(in and out). 5m is ok and the money has to be there in cash at the time the Statement was printed.

If your application is Bsc, Masters by Coursework or PHD, you will be processes under SVP and the Embassy will not require you to produce Bank Statement. You must sign the Financial declaration part on your Visa application form as well as writing a simple declaration addressed to DIBP stating that you have access to funds that will cover you for cost of fees and living expenses for the total duration of your Studies in Australia.

I hope I answered all your questions?

Yes you did bro but one last question, will they accept a fixed deposit or must it be liquidated, since it does not allow in and out flow of cash, thanks so much. Anyone who has gone through this before can still help me out

erictack203:
They do ask for Financial Statements, most Schools of Course but not all Schools. Like my School don't ask.

Please what is the name of your school, let me try. Also, do you think 5M is going to suffice for account statement, and if yes, must all the money be complete for the three months or is it acceptable to complete it the last month before presenting the statement?

Hello house,

For those that went through svp I want to know, do schools ask for account statement? I want to know if I can make arrangement for family sponsorship or just proceed with my tuition alone
. Thanks in advance

atrapon:
ferdi honestly i dont know d factors dat sum up d 50 points..tank u

Age, English test, qualification etc. You probably forgot

My cousin's husband has been diagnosed with hiv. When I heard the news I put a call to her, asking her if she has it too but she said no. The man was first diagnosed +ve last november, after he became too weak and according to her, they took it as false because she was tested negative. March again this year, the man also tested positive but she negative. I then advised her to go for another test which she did few days ago and said it is negative. My question, is it possible for the man to have it and not pass it to her, or is she just lying in fear of stigmatization? She said she has stopped unprotected sex with him since last two months though, but how about other previous months they've been doing it raw. Doctors, experienced ones, please kindly say something. I'm really feeling bad

NNBB2012:
You could as well boost your points via English test either IELTS or PTE-Academics although either 190 or 489 visa is another alternative.

Ok thanks. But that is if EA were accepting PTE academics

Considering the fact that I will be loosing 5 points by november, I want to ask if it's possible to still go for 190 or the 489 with 50 points, or must it be up to 55?
NNB2012, Manmeta, bosslady, ferdimaco, house please reply, thanks

Andrew114:

Hi all,

I have downloaded and read the Engineer Australia's MSA booklet but still have some little confusion. Before I get assessed by EA, am I going to write career episodes and prepare a CDR and pay the application fees or how exactly should I start? @NNB2012, manmeta, bossladymo, ferdimako, all engineers and non engineers who have done it, please help.

Dav6:
@prince242 pls wat is Qatar quote?maybe we can compare...I mean there quote that you checked? @Erictack203 GOAJO have hidden fees that they would not tell you until the visa is out which is not less thank $1000-$2000 pls be guided you can inquire further from them ok..pls let that person be guided...

Yes. 2000USD...and they won't tell you unless you ask

bossladymo1:
Definitely you can. It depends on the state...but even the state with the longest wait time does not take more than 3 mths. Which state are you looking at? Which occupation? QLD will nominate you within 5 working days sef.

Thanks bossladymo. I am looking at NSW or QLD. Please how do I start?

chuckdee13:
if ur qualifications have already been assessed then I guess u will get invited before november if u start ASAP.

No they have not. Please how do I start with the assestment?

bossladymo1:
State nomination 190 visa

Thank you bossladymo. How long does it take from the moment of assestment to invitation(approximately). I will be 33 by November, thats a loss of 5 points. Assuming I start with IELTS next month, do you think I can be invited b4 Nov?

Pls house, going with this profile:
Age.......30 points qualification.....15 points experience (2 yrs)....0 point IELTS (assuming I make 7).....10 points Total.......55 points
How do I get an extra 5 points to make it up, or is there no other hope?

Thanks@chuckdee and NNB2012, will do accordingly. @Bossladymo I guess you start expecting the invites after lodging the EOI right?
