The processing time is not even predictable right now. We still have October and November applicants waiting

Officialjoecool:
We are still waiting for grant o. School has already resumed. I have requested for deferral.
Someone submitted documents on 2 Dec. And got visa response in 13 February. That's about 75 days.
I submitted 13 Dec and I am yet to receive from that calculation end of February is when I should expect response. Same should apply for the rest of us. Just carry 75 days for mind.

To those experience plz... My course is a one year program, hospitality. After which I intend to further to do a degree 2 years, would that be good to apply for PR. Alternatively if I do this one year program and do another related program for one year.... Would that be considered as 2 years when I apply for PR if both are only diplomas.

This is the least of the problem, i dont think getting cheap ticket deals should be the bone of contention here for someone that could afford to foot the bills till the point of getting grant. Lets talk about VISA pls

ignis:
Please you guys should stop distracting some of us.

The most important thing is VISA and not flight.

This their processing approach is very poor honestly,
and person no fit fastrack

Otumbalamba:
I have not experience this type of depression before........somebody will just keep his life on hold waiting for visa for God knows when......

Was it stated in the letter what you are required to do, cos I've seen some NJL where the case officer would request for certain things to clarify the discrepancies. But either ways you should supply relevant information/docs to clarify the discrepancies and also make a detailed response letter. The earlier the better, all the best

Dgeneral23:

Elliwizzy:
Good evening everyone, I trust our day was smooth�.
Just want to wish us a GRANT filled week.

And for all those still believing God for a financial breakthrough you will recieve an Alert that will confuse your Enemy.

And all those that their hope has been dashed, I see God restoring everything you'hav lost.

And for every closed case, I see God lifting up all embargoes placed on it.

WE will be remembered for good this week

PREPARE YOURSELF FOR A TESTIMONY FILLED WEEK.

To the best of my knowledge, their resumption should be 2nd january

Elliwizzy:

obainojazz:
They used to write it in the new yellow card... If you are in Lagos.... Go to port health..

I just got a mail from DHA requesting for more information to provide: Polio vaccination certificate - OPV valid for a period of 12 months from date of vaccination. Im a bit confused, is it the same as Yellow card?

No processing time per se, applied 51 days ago and still waiting even though my processing time is 40-54days. It depends on the volume of applications for them to treat

ignis:

lessons learnt: delay is not denial!!!

my message to you, yes you...... never give up, God will do it for you at your appointed time. Before the end of this month you will receive divine grace and favour. you will shout for glory and all your dreams would come into fruition.

For you to have been cleared by your uni, I think you must have satisfied their own financial requirements with whatever doc you submited before issuing you a COE which is judged by them to be acceptable by DHA. At the same time, your agent is also trying to play by the rules cos case officer may request for it and you need to have it handy as you would also fill a part indicating your financial evidence when applying for the visa and you need to put a figure you can defend with evidence if they request. I hope this helps.

chizzy12345:
Good day everyone, please i am having some challenges with my visa application. My agency BCIE is insisting that my sponsor needs to have the cost of living and balance of first year tuition (which is about 9.8M) in the account for at least three consecutive months before they can lodge my visa application. Please i would like to know if this is a necessary requirement or i can go ahead and apply on my own. i already have my COE from University of Tasmania and my resumption date is February 24th 2020. I would really appreciate any help, thanks

.

We are all entitled to our opinion anyway, that's what he thinks, afterall I'm sure the 20% means alot to the guy if he only knows the total indicative fee and what it takes to be eligible

Joan011:
See as you just pour sand for this guy garri

I received a 20% tuition scholarship from Deakin after my COE was issued and also I have applied for my visa. Is it needed to attach the scholarship letter as a supporting doc or not necessary as the scholarship doesn't reflect on the submitted COE and school wont be issuing an update but I was told the scholarship is already keyed into my records.

Been waiting for my COE at Deakin University for over a month now ahead of February resumption, heard they don't issue COE earlier than 4 months before resumption. How true is this? Has anyone going to Deakin for February got their COE?

Please which school is this

Ukonnaemmanuel5:
evening house, how long does it take for the release of aussie visa.
I applied in July -did medicals,biometrics etc same period.

course is due to start February, but I want to leave before then.

Now i see why my aliexpress orders has been hanging for months

Hello bro, I have similar issue. Would PM you for a chat

omosanyaolak:
How many Months to Start Date is the school permitted to issue CoE? My resumption date is February, 2020 and Deakin University said they can not issue CoE until it is 4 months to start date of my programme? I have to wait till October. Can anyone shed more light on this, please.

Okay thanks

Bestcutie:
You can tell them ur brother is in Melbourne, it doesn't matter as long as you have other ties back in Nigeria. I used my brother in Sydney wen I applied.

While writing my GTE statement, is it okay to state that my brother who resides in Melbourne will be sponsoring my studies, or be silent about where he lives and leave it as my brother will be sponsoring. Either way they have the information, just thinking its better to be mute. Pls i need your suggestions cos i learnt strong ties in Aussie is part of the GTE criteria.

Good day, please do we need police clearance for student visa application?

My brother will be sponsoring my study in Australia as a PR as I even intend to stay with him during the course of study. Can that jeopardize my chances of getting the student Visa in anyway with my Australia ties? Thanks.

Please what's the ideal no of pages/words recommended for GTE statement of purpose for Visa application to be concise and still capture the needed information?

Thank you all for the advice, appreciate!

Vincentosa:
I will strongly advice you to go with deakin university offer. You will relate your seamless experience in securing your student Visa here at the end of the day. DHA is very concern about the relationship of your chosen courses in respect of your previous study.

Good day house,
I have gotten offers from 2 schools; La trobe university to study Masters of social works (AL2) institution and another from Deakin University (AL1) to study Health and Human Services Management. Considering my prior degree in Community Health, which of the offer would be wise to accept in securing Visa with less stress?

Congratulations on your grant bro. I also applied to Deakin, would like to have a chat. Iv sent an email

ofemi77:
I prayed about visa grant deliveries this week with few people saying Amen.. and as hilarious as our God may be, He started the delivery with me! #Obaaseyiowu

MEDICAL: 28th May
VISA APPLICATION : 18th June
BIOMETRIC: 19th June.. (it would surprise you I did my biometric twice.... firstly on 18th June, then was called that my biometric wasn't successfully delivered, Australian government had to call VFS to call me for another one... was the only one called back for it out of the 31 people that did biometric on 18th June) .... You too see say my village people tried, but the God of Oyedepo pass them... Lol

CO contact: 31st July (requested for a new CoE)
New CoE uploaded : 2nd August
Visa Grant: 6th August

The visa dropped while I was on phone with my agent.. we were gisting , Lo and behold, he just shouted "ofemi o ti jade o" ....naso I began dance skelewu and now, I've switched to naira Marley.. Lol

For someone out there discouraged and trying to throw in the towel, let my testimony be enough to spark hope in you.. I got denied by Czech Rep in 2015 and US last August. Today marks it a year and two days those bastard at Walter Carrighton knack me "hammer" for head... but today, just see what the Lord has done.
Lemme say it again, all hopefuls will smile IJN.

Oya ni Deakin oo.. Iyalaya daddy mummy daddy won! Lol

Please when is your course starting and how many weeks did it take you to get an offer after placing your application with Deakin Uni?

Imadeosarodion:
Is deakin not a level one level? I got conditional offer from them to study mechanical engineering( credit transfer waving the first year for me). Condition below
1. That i should write another ielts with no band less than 6.0 or pay 2000 Australia dollars for their English class before the main class.
2. Pass my gte interview with the school.

Adeliede university gave me too but they didn't accept my credit transfer but but the condition is just to pay my school fees.

But my agent told me she didn't inform adelaide about my previous visa refusal saying she was expecting the school to request for my sop so we could talk about the visa.

Now what should i do? I have enrolled for another ielts, i pray i get the band score required.

What do you guys thing about deakin English exams? Will it be easy to pass over there?

Do you think i can easily get a visa with uni adelaide with my previous work refusal in Australia.

Good day House,

Please is it advisable to seek admission to Federation University, Australia considering it been an AL3 school. What is the chance of securing visa with an offer from this Uni and what requirements would assist in terms of funds?

Morning, i just got a conditional offer from my Uni to send Salary statement of account from 2016 till date. This is over 100 pages, can i just extract the pages showing salary across the months or send the entire document. seems too bulky and heavy. Thanks

liliberth:
Either he shows his degree for a masters or his masters for a PhD. They want a progression, very hard for them to give when he already has a masters.

Okay thanks, but in my case i graduated in 2013 for a 4yrs course and its about 5yrs educational gap now. Can my work experiences be used to fill same gap. Been working in a similar field for over 4yrs now.

Good morning, i am about to start an application for a masters programme in an Australian Institution, i already have a masters in school and community health from U.I and want to study Masters in social works. Would like to know if i wont be having visa issues provided that i already earned a masters.
