good day all.
I just finished my masters in control engineering and came
back to Nigeria but I have not had job experience. I worked
as a health care worker in UK and still got my training
certificates. I was thinking of applying for another masters
in australia. maybe masters by research but I feel it's waste
of money. I need your advice. without experience can I
apply for PR. is there any agent I need to go through? or
should go ahead and apply for another masters? thanks

I guess your MSc is from UK. Then u can apply for Australia visa subclass 476. It allows recent engineering graduate from countries sign to the Washington accord to apply for a 18months temporary visa.

The visa allow u to work full-time or study if u want. But u must be less than 31 years and apply within two years after graduation.

The beauty of this visa is that u don't need to show any fund whatsoever. And it almost guarantee if u meet the criteria.

Two of my friends has gotten it this year and am waiting for mine. This visa is not popular in Nigeria bcoz Nigeria is not a signatory to the Washington accord, so engineering graduate from Nigeria uni is not eligible. But u having a UK master engineering degree can apply (even if ur first degree is from Nigeria).

As a newbiee to all this I am relying on the expertise of the house to make my decision. I don't really know which is better of the two. But personally I am looking for the most direct and straightforward of the two, easier to settle environment and lower costs of living. In general, they offer almost similar high standards of living.

TempusQ:
I must be frank with you, if you haven't made up your mind on Australia yet. You might also get distracted again when you only want to know the periphery of the process. The truth of the matter is, the process is quite straight forward once you can follow them with the intention of getting your PR, not just knowing them.

The time varies, but it was about a space of 2 - 3 months in general. A third friend just got his own yesterday and submitted around 2nd week of December, 2015.

I submitted mine on the 29th of December last Year. Yet to receive final decision but have been contacted once by a CO to request for an additional document.

So you will have to relax, that was how their status was until they received their approval mail. This 476 subclass visa is almost a sure banker if u meet the criteria.

please I need to talk to you. I sent u a mail via nairaland so we can communicate. kindly reply the mail with your contact number so I can contact you or perhaps just reply we will exchange number. yes I did msc in uk

Thanks for your reply.

I guess i will be patient then. It will be two months on the 27th and i haven't been contacted by any CO. But then they don't always require additional info.

Please do you know if one is required to travel within a specified time after visa approval?.

And does the 18 months start counting from visa approval date or when one lands in Australia?

Sorry to bother you. Thanks a lot.

The truth is, there's no cheap school in Australia, those that are said to be cheap ain't that cheap there's just a slight variation in fees from others. You can get your PR while studying if & only if you meet the requirements for PR by following due process, no magic in that. As a international student, you luckily get your PR while studying, you will still have to pay your subsequent school fees as a international student because you get your admission prior to PR, you will only enjoy the benefits of a PR holder when you apply for a new program after getting your PR.
PR is not by the number of years in Australia but by having the require points and following due process.

God bless U

NNBB2012:


You have rightly answered the questions. Just a quick correction, Once you get your PR, it changes everything and you will enjoy the benefits including school fees. You will cease to be an international student. You can decide to change to part-time study or possibly defer your study. So you WON'T pay as an international student.

thanks God bless U,that's what i need to hear

They don't always request additional document.

Once you visa is granted they will give some months within which you will expected to arrive oz. It is usually more than six months though.

Your 18 months visa grant start counting from the time you arrive oz.

Thanks a lot bro.

I'm not so sure but I'm hearing here that you can be eligible for all those grants 2 years after you got your PR.

so how do I apply and what and what is needed??

Bambizzle4k4556:

First, you need an engineering degree from a country that is sign to the Washington accord (of which UK is signatory), the degree must have been completed not more than 24 months ago as the time of application.

Secondly, the applicant should not be more than 31yrs of age as the time of application.

Those are the two major criteria, every other thing is just supporting documents u need to summit like English language test result, birth certificate, degree certificate or statement of result, transcripts etc

I think you have almost all the requirement kindly peruse this thread very well your question had been answered many of times and yours seem pretty straight forward

Hello house,
I was wondering if anyone knows if AITSL grants positive assesment to Nigerian BEd teachers.I have thoroughly read and understand the requirements on their website, but would like to know if they view Nigerian Bed as equivalent to theirs in Australia, any one( or if you know anyone ) with previous experience please?also any idea of the equivalence of Nigerian NCE in Australia? advanced diploma maybe?

Thanks

Please gurus in the house do justice to these questions. The fellow has quoted himself for the 3rd time or so. Pls let's not ignore him/her.

God bless us all!

thanks for your response, I have read through the thread and even the Australian immigration website but am still unclear about somethings.
For example, my occupation is listed on both the CSOL and the SOL lists but I don't know which to pursue, secondly I don't know the one to select between subclass 189 and 190, lastly, since I already had my ielts done, what is the next step?. Please help me cos the process is still not very clear to me
Thank you

If you are sure of the 60points benchmark, the first thing is to assess your B.Sc with the relevant authority.
189 visa is for workers who are not sponsored by an employer or family member or nominated by a state or territory government.
190 visa is for workers who are nominated by a state or territory government agency.
If nobody is sponsoring you SOL & if you are being sponsored or nominated CSOL.

The taste of the pudding is in the eating. I am not sure anyone here can answer the question except AITSL. If he meets the requirements, he should get a positive response.

Like I said, until he put in for the assessment, no one can confidently say yes or no, individual circumstances are different.

@Cuteannie02,

Since your occupation is on the SOL list, apply for the 189 subclass. You only need minimum of 60points. First step though is to assess your skills and qualification with the assessing authority for your occupation.

@Swimgood,

The company can prepare payslip for him since he works there. However, without bank statement and tax clearance, I wouldn't know how he can navigate that water if the CO ask for additional documents.

Better get your 60points without claiming work experience.

hello guys,
please can someone recommend a very cheap Australia university to study undergrad biomedical science?
And can i get a P.R while studying?

My plans is after studying biomed sci wic is 3years,i wil cross to medicine in one of the unis,So can i get a P.R after finishing my 1st year in medicine?,wic will make it my fourth year in staying in OZ,so dat i can be transfer to Australian paying student wich is very cheap compare to that of international fees

bosses bellong NNBB2012 or anybody please reply
God bless

As at the last time I checked, Biomedical science is not on any list. Hence, you can't use it to get a PR. Do your research well.

The following occupations have been flagged in this financial year. What it means is that they may or may not be removed in the future. Remember that new financial year starts in July of every year. Whatever you need to do, just do it because anything can happen.
