so sorry about your refusal bro,

Kindly note that Strong ties back home should be.
1) Wife with or without child
2) work with good salary ( & Proposed salary after your study should be stated and must be high)
3) landed property in your name. ( get a landed document in your name)
4) own a registered business with CAC documents showing your name.

father,mother,brothers & sisters alone might not be enough unless you wrote a very strong GTE that is able to divert the attention of the reading CASE officer to the importance of that course of study and explain how the course will be of positive impact in your country or the problems you will be able to solve in your country if you can have that qualification.

One more important thing. i observed couple of peeps who get refusal used agent who reside in Australia. i will advice new pple who are just about to apply, should try and consider using physical agents that has his/her two legs in Nigeria,so that you will be able to para for them in case you notice any slurgishness. you wont be able to voice out to those once in Australia ,because they will just ignore your calls or chat and there is nothing you can do about it. not withstanding ,there are good once among them but im just saying based on what i heard.

for example.
1) Nigerian agents always source for updates,because they will only be in business if they get more application successful so pple can refer, its there main hustle, while those abroad are just using it as side hustle, so if application is not successful, it wont really affect them in any way because they are still making good money with their job in australia.

2) Nigerian agents also know many tricks to safeguard student and will advice you on what document to submit, the once you wont submit unless the CASE OFFICER request for it except the Agent is not experienced.

3) Agents in Nigeria will always be available to attend to your needs or you can go to their office and clear things out, because of the same time zone and physical presence,also emotional attachment. While those in Australia are doing other jobs or probably Asleep, so they can be offline when you need them the most.

NB: its just my opinion oh,my message is not to demarket anyone but i care more about my struggling Nigerians who are still able to raise this expensive funds for an Australian education ,especially with the serious Hardship in the Nigeria..
Bro.. you just said it all.. you talk like an agent yourself.. I will use an agent in Nigeria this time around. Thank you a lot

Sorry about this,

Even with the economic situation in Nigeria, Visa is still be issued to Nigerians.

I have always encouraged friends to apply for Visa themselves. This thing is not difficult to do. My GTE is less than 300 words and it shows consistency with my documents and experience.

Asking someone to write a GTE for you or copy from someone is not a good one. This immigration officers are trained psychologist and can easy detect inconsistency.

Please make sure you write you GTE yourself even if an agent is applying for you. It gives you the opportunity m to genuinely speak to you application.
I wrote my GTE myself.. it wasn’t my agent that wrote that for me. Thanks a lot

Hello everyone.. please and Please, can anyone issue an advise to me on what to do.
My Australian study visa got rejected today on the grounds of GTE. The case officer stated that he isn’t sure I will be back home due to the socioeconomic and civil situation in my home country (Nigeria) even though I stated my strong ties back home (parents, siblings and wife).

Mind you, I am not even living in Nigeria, I reside in Netherlands. Please how do I go about this? I have a brother in australia and he used an education agent in australia to apply for me.
