Yes, straight to the recipient's account and within few minutes (2-5mins) the money is in the account. You could also buy recharge cards for someone through it. Very effective way of transferring money. But unfortunately, you cannot transfer money from Nigeria to Australia through them. Is there any way one could transfer money from Nigeria to Australian's bank account apart from inter bank transfer?


And I can see it is cheaper sef. Will try it out. Thanks for the info!

RIA is the easiest way to send money from Australia.

You should open a Savings Account with First Bank and Advice her with your full Name and any Requirement RIA will need from her. Ask her to use RIA.

Wish you luck.

Hello ladies and gents. Please since Australia would not grant me visa,I have decided to do my undergraduate programme here in Nigeria and my sponsor has agreed to that then later i would go to Aussie for my msc degree by God's grace. So,the snag i am catching now is that,my sponsor tried sending me some money last week from Australia through Western Union,and to my greatest surprise,they denied her access to that,disparaged and insulted her for trying to help an African,they even called her a scammer and they cancelled her WU gold account. She felt bad likewise me,but she is determined and asked me to seek other ways. Please guys,is there anyone in Australia who has ever sent money home or someone who is experienced about this should pls enlighten me on how to go about this. Is there no other ways to send money from Australia to Nigeria apart Western Union? Thanks all. Stay blessed.

Modified:
I would have gone to open a domiciliary account,but the stresses are much and GTB keeps stressing me out.

Take this from someone who has tried almost every possible means of transferring money from here to Nigeria, World Remit is the most efficient, most reliable and cheapest. You can transfer to virtually any bank/bank account in Nigeria. And it's almost instant - less than 5 minutes your transfer is sitting pretty.

With regards to cheap international phone calls, try Telbo. I'm presently experimenting with some now while some have been binned.
Re: General Australian student Visa Enquiries Part 2 by erictack203(m): 10:18am On Jul 24, 2015
Sorry, I didn't even view the subsequent response from the house, Judging by the House response Worldremit is superb! Thanks House for bringing this new insight and Idea.

Congrats! Seeing that you have been silent for a while, i would have loved to see you share your timeline. Well from my research.

1. In terms of multicultural exposure, from the highest: Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Perth, .....Sydney would have been first but for the higher real estate and cost of living.
4. Schools in the Southern areas, all of NSW resume in January.

Just my two cents but I stand to be corrected. I'm sure folks who are already settled will have more to chip in.


thank you scrollmeout.

My answers are in bold. You should be able to get a job as a teacher...not sure tho. Congrats. Victoria is the multi-cultural capital of Australia, that I can tell you. So you guys can choose that state.


bossladymo1, thanks! a bunch your suggestions will go a long way. Do you live in victoria?

Your hubby's job might likely determine where you will eventually settle. You should be able to fit in in any of the city. He should not wait to arrive before he starts to apply for job. www.seek.com.au and www.indeed.com.au will be of great help. Considering his qualification and experience, he might likely end up in Sydney or Melbourne, so prepare for high cost on rents although it is relative.

Children can be enrolled at anytime of the year once they have reached school age. Your children must be 5years old before they can start primary school in NSW. Every state has their own school age. So, where you will eventually settle should determine that.

Getting a supervisor for your PhD should not be an issue. As a PR holder, your PhD is tuition free.

thank you for your quick response. I really appreciate it.

Thanks! everyone for those helpful suggestions. I am working on them aleady.

Because my visa is 'Label free' (I suppose that is what is usually given to most PR visa holder, please correct me, if I am wrong). i'm hoping transiting through some countries wouldn't be challenging. Do immigration officers and airline officials usually reckon with the visa label free visa?

In a nutshell, can anyone share their travel experience with their 'label-free' Visa to Australia.

1. are there things to watch out for?

2. any airline of recommendations?

3. Are transit Visas needed, if so, which countries in particular?

any suggestion in this direction will be much appreciated. thank you.

No you don't. You can receive transfers into any of your accounts - only in local currency of the destination country.

Thanks a million sir. My last questions are:
1. What is the minimum amount that can be transfer at a time(i heard it is $2000)?
2. Can one perform this transactions at the comfort of ones home on ones gadgets without having to go to agents to send the money the way Western Union does? Thanks.

NNBB2012 I need to understand something from ur response. U said he shud start applying from Nigeria, how will they fairly consider him since the address on his CV will still be Nigerian with no ties to Australia n no way of showing ur now a PR holder how will he be considered for a job from here? I know people get jobs from here but I have no clue as to how they do it

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?
