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

I really Appreciate your timely response bro.

Also, after getting an admission, must the person also go through same agent for Visa Application or can visa application stage be done independent of an Agent?
U are definitely free to do visa application yourself or engage an agent. Agents don't add any frills still...

Getting ready eh! The countdown has begun...Get ready for a longggggggg flight! Well you have just 1 kid sha, so you and your wife can exchange.

Word of advice...bring AV cord along. You would hate to buy 150 cord for $20 (might be even higher in a capital city).

How far accommodation? Have friends here?

EA doesn't accept PTE A they only accept either IELTS A or G for assessment. You stand a better chance though of scoring high band in PTE Academics for the purpose of migration points which has nothing to do with EA assessment.

Unfortunately yes and u need to get it in person in Abuja.
Re: General Australian student Visa Enquiries Part 2 by erictack203(m): 7:07am On Jul 08, 2015
How do u book? is it tru at the airline office or tru an agent?

izykvision0:
For those who can't wait for IOM or just as a second option, try this route:

Lagos - SouthAfrica Via Ethiopian Airline with minimal stopover in Addis Ababa.

SA- Melbourne with minimal stopover at Singapore. There are other destinations in Oz.

Quite cool.

Just got mine all booked. Cheaper than the Asian route.

You might not get replies from Airbnb...guess the Nigerian factor....but lets see how it goes for you. Otherwise, you can try other options.

If you get a furnished apartment, you might not get one. The AV cord was nkt there when we moved in. So if you find yourself in such a situation, you go just dey vex sey u gats buy am with $20. Yeap, the red yellow and white one.

Your wife is better suited as the primary applicant. Secondary school teacher is on the list. Go through it for the assessing body.

She should write English test and assess her skill.

Firstly, check the requirements of the AITSL...that is the assessment body for teachers.

Hello Fam, I really appreciate the loads of information we share here. It has tremendously helped me understand a lot of things and guided my decision making process.

Before i finally make an application, please i need to know the living standards (weather, costs, job opportunities, accommodation) of Perth. Is Perth a good place for students. I saw a lot of positive reviews about Perth online but I want my fellow Nigerians to share their candid thoughts or experiences. Thanks.
