@ sunvick
Good to have you back. #GMPC for Life

Hi Aussie immigration guiders,pls I want to ask if it is appropriate if I use the employment reference letter I submitted to VETASSESS for formal visa lodgement with DIBP? It is important to state that my employer addressed the letter to VETASSESS

saddyn:



Thank u very much my brother for this piece of info. God will bless u.

If I understand u completely, I should not include any of my work experience and concentrate on the English test?

What about my banking experience? That I was paid weekly and the pay slips sent to me by email. Or I should neglect that as well and focus on the English test?

Thanks for throwing more light!

More or less, yes. If your bank work is not engineering related, don't bother use it

Mcslize:
jamson bro hope you've resumed your new work? pardon my equisitiveness can you help us with a rough estimate of the total expenses of every penny spent for everything from beginning till end? As this will help us the new comers to know how much we should bear in mind to save. Do kindly tell us?

It will. Average total cost for a single applicant is 1.5 - 2 Million Naira depending on the rates you get. You'll have leftover for flight and money to take along sef

Can someone Pls answer my query

Grant Finally.
I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all.

.
I m a living witness to this.
It was all a dream

.
Nov 2015, I didn't really know where I was going, I was thinking what next with life, and what it will present, in the hostels in UNI. A friend told me about studying in Australia and the fact that they didn't have so complex admission process, as far as one had the funds, there were always spaces. Plans were down. Time went, then I started service, and thats how exchange rate started dramatizing... Till it reached an unthinkable level. Australia in turn changed student visa policies, just a week to July, making it soo tough at that point. Then I felt really bad and knew studying wasn't possible again.

.
I started the PR processing, and thats how immigration started their wahala, almost two months to get a passport. Thanks to mamajaz at this point for her selfless service and support. She helped put.calls to lots of people in different states to help me process the passport. I will not forget it. Time went, I took ielts on the 5th of November, then prepared my CDR, which was submitted around that time. December 7th, I took PTE first time, scored all except speaking above 79. Speaking was 73. I booked again to take it on the 13th and scored all above 79, speaking 81.
Moreover, i got my assessment for professional electronics engineer on the 13th of December. Got the result on the 17th and lodged eoi immediately with 60 points. At that period, electronics went on pro rata, so I waited till April 12th round to get invited. I ll also add that the last invited 60points for electronics submitted on Dec 19, so it came down to the wire.
Lodged 13th April, submitted all relevant documents and here I am, I ve gotten the Direct grant on the 31st May.
Sometimes, we think we are at the lowest point in life, not knowing we are being prepared for grace untold

.
Notable mentions to the veterans,...(some newbies might not know them) More like the forefathers in this thread... NNBB2012, scrollmeout, ericktack, bossylady Johnsontade, Malkinburg, and our ever, selfless, passionate and respected Bellong... God bless you sir. I owe you a complementary visit there.
My brothers from another mother Bnimz and big bro Jamson, catchdwindfrmkd... Thanks for being part of the journey.
