I was once a victim. They said they would get me 2 jobs , two years accommodation, and 4 years working permit. It was a scam. Their plan was to get tourist visa for me but I discovered early. What is your Agents name.

Yea. I intend to defer so I can apply for PR cos I am very qualified for that. I found out after applying for a vocational student visa. I didn't go for medicals cos it could be an indication of the decision of the immigration . If my application is assessed and I am asked to go for medicals , my agent says it means I will be given.
well, I am waiting to hear from them as I have sent an email requesting if I should defer. I hope to hear from them this week.
You still have time . They told me assessment level 3 takes 2months so you are fine.








Bryanpro:
Mahn have your case officer contacted you?..
Cos I am surprised you said u contacted the CO ... Anyways I submitted my application on June 24th my school resumes on the 21 of September ... I frontloaded my medicals ... U should have done that... It's better you defer your admission because you won't be meeting up with your status... Non Svp take max of 3months to process
TravelRe: General Australian student Visa Enquiries Part 2 by samuelokwu: 10:28pm On Jul 11, 2015
Bros you are not alone . I am a non svp applicant as well . I applied on 11th June . My TAFE course starts on 20 July. Induction in on 14th. Sent a mail to the case officer and they replied that they received my application on 15TH June and that it was still under assessment and that assessment level 3 takes 2months . However, I replied and asked them if I should defer the resumption considering the closeness of the resumption. I a still waiting for a response from them..

I have not even been asked to go for medicals. Have you?

Tell your story.

Hi Pingu2k5,
I am still waiting for your call.




pingu2k5:
You only need one letter of good standing and u can get that same day you apply at the Island office. You should be able to get the transcripts within a week, all things being equal, at the Oyingbo office.

I got my Police clearance same day for N5k at Police headquarters, Alagbon, Ikoyi. You will need to get a police clearance for every migrating dependent that is 16 years or older.

I will call you.
TravelRe: General Australian student Visa Enquiries Part 2 by samuelokwu: 10:42am On Jul 01, 2015
Hi Pingu2k5,
Thanks for your help so far. I have got my letter of good standing, and have applied for my ICAN transcript. It remains English score.
Please flash or call me .

Hi people
about my experience . I have 7 YEARS and 1 month experience with my current employer. I also have about 13 months with another employer. The issue is this 15 months including my NYSC period.
Now I was not posted there. I was posted to maiduguri but had an arrangement with my ZI. So I forfeited my allowance and stayed back in Lagos working.
I have an employment letter and can get a reference letter from my employer.
Can I now claim above 8years for my assessment point ?

I was employed as a senior accounts ckerk .

Pls advise





manmeta:
You are good to go. You don't need more than 6 months payslips for your present employment. Try to provide as many docs as possible while not being bogus at the same time.
TravelRe: General Australian student Visa Enquiries Part 2 by samuelokwu: 1:47pm On Jun 28, 2015
Thanks again.my first degree was in accounting .however, I will still like to include my Ats transcript along with that for I CAN .
if the trNscript can be got at onyigbo for both ats and PE, and will be ready within the week? How long will it take for letter of good standing?
Can one letter of good standing cover both AAT and ACA ?

I will like to go to onyigbo tomorrow that's why I am asking plenty questions. Pls pardon me.







pingu2k5:
Same price as the professional exam transcript. I paid N7,500 each for the ATS and PE transcripts, but I think it's N10,000 each now.

Below are the requirements stated on ICAN website (http://icanig.org/ican/article.php?id=27):
• Written application indicating destination of transcripts. Applicants phone numbers must be included.
• Payment of processing fee of N10,000 (make a pay direct at any commercial bank in Nigeria
• Photocopy of AAT/ICAN Certificate (for members only).
• Photocopy of exemption certificate (if applicable).
• Photocopies of passed results.
• One recent passport photograph.
• Duplicate copy of receipt of payment/teller.
• Applicant is to pay all indebtedness (i.e membership/student Annual Subscription/Development levy) before transcript is processed.

Please note that my first degree was not in accounting. If you have BSc accounting and the courses exempted for you by ICAN were covered in your undergraduate studies and you can provide your undergraduate syllabus, then you may not need to stress yourself with ATS.

My advice: Get any evidence u can to back up your application.
TravelRe: General Australian student Visa Enquiries Part 2 by samuelokwu: 12:19pm On Jun 28, 2015
Hello pingu2k5
Please it's me again. How and where did u get your police clearance?
Please direct me . How much did you pay? How long did it take ? Must I get for I and my wife or only myself as the principal applicants?
Do u have any contact I can meet to assist with it ? Please assist .

Thanks




pingu2k5:
Please anyone: I just collected my police clearance (PCC) and noticed it has 3 months validity. How does this affect initial entry date to Australia after visa grant?
TravelRe: General Australian student Visa Enquiries Part 2 by samuelokwu: 9:33am On Jun 28, 2015
Hello pingu2k5
Tanks for the info . I also went through ATS .
Please how much did you pay for your A AT transcript?
Are there other requirements I must submit to get it.
Please I will appreciate every information you can give because I will be going to onyigbo offices on Monday morning.
Thanks









pingu2k5:
1. Yes, please. I also did ATS. I submitted both my ATS transcript and professional exams transcript to ICAA. Before my assessment was concluded, I was asked the basis for the exemptions, which I replied it's the ATS. I also submitted ATS syllabus.

2. ICAA requires members of professional institutes to provide a letter of good standing from their institute. I'm not sure the other assessing bodies require this. It takes nothing to get this from ICAN so long as there is no outstanding annual subcription payment.
TravelRe: General Australian student Visa Enquiries Part 2 by samuelokwu: 9:37am On Jun 27, 2015
Thanks a lot Pingu 2k5.
Please when did you qualify?
I qualified in 2007 November.
Please did u use ICAA as your assessing body?

Also is you assessment result out ?









pingu2k5:
Oyingbo office. Within a week. You can print your results from ICAN's website. If you can't get the results, I believe they will still treat. You'll get the letter of good standing from the Island office. Also try to get the syllabus that was effective when you wrote the exams.
TravelRe: General Australian student Visa Enquiries Part 2 by samuelokwu: 1:38am On Jun 27, 2015
Hello linguistics2k5
Please how long did it take you to get your transcript from ICAN?
ALso which of their offices did you go to( onyigbo or island)?
Lastly what if I cannot find my individual exam result slips, can they treat without them?

Please help with the answer







pingu2k5:
You apply for the transcript at ICAN's office. Check this link for the procedure: http://icanig.org/ican/article.php?id=27 . I received my transcript and sent to the assessing authority myself. Not all schools have to send transcript. You will have to look for a way to get yours from your school.

Please check the websites of the assessing authorities (CPA, ICAA and IPA) for current requirements and documentation.

I will get the ielts 7 in all bands this July. If I can do it from Australia can I start as soon as I get there or must I study for a given time first?
Also assume the ielts is ready, can u estimate how long it might take ?

Please

You can do ur PR processing from Australia...I keep repeating this to u. Ur PR visa processing time will depend on the time it takes u to get those 7 bands across the board.

Hello Bro,
I need your advise. Tried calling but I guess it's almost midnight there.
my agent said PR will take a very long time and that it is not possible to get PR from Nigeria. He gave several reasons.

I intend to withdraw my application from immigration and begin the PR process. As it stands now all I need for 10 points is ielts grade 7 in all courses.

Can u advise me . I want to know how long the PR takes approximately. Also if withdrawing my application current application will affect my PR process.

I applied for student visa (TAFE) Course on June 11 and I am yet to get a communication from them so I can proceed for medicals.

I really want to follow your advise of PR but I need these clarifications.

Sorry for the long essay.

I wish you were awake so we could talk.

Thanks

Okay. Please direct me on the process for obtaining ICAN transcript.
also schools usually send transcript themselves. How will you upload it or will the school do it for you?

Sorry to borther oh.







pingu2k5:
Yes, ICAN gives transcript. The transcript shows all the exams you passed and when you passed them. I did mention that I submitted my degree (BSc) certificate and transcript as well.
TravelRe: General Australian student Visa Enquiries Part 2 by samuelokwu: 11:19pm On Jun 23, 2015
Hi , please I am not clear. You submitted I CAN certificate and transcript to ICAA for assessment. Please which transcript 're you referring to ? Is it the university transcript? Or does ICAN give transcript too? Also you did not mention your bsc .
Does it mean as a chartered accountant you can be assessed based on ican certificate only? Pls clarify.









pingu2k5:
Skills assessment is assessment of your qualifications. I had my assessment with ICAA; took about 5 weeks. Documents I submitted were ICAN certificate & transcript, Letter of Good Standing from ICAN, degree certificate & transcript and CV. I sent these documents via email.

If you want to claim points for work experience, you will have to apply for your experience to be assessed. This is skilled employment assessment. You can apply for the two assessments at the same.

Wow . TAFE accepted ielts General 7.0 (not 7 in all bands) PR requires 7in all courses.
if Tate is successful, do u mean I can apply for PR while in Australia doing my TAFE. Also will I have to write IElts academic again even when I am in Australia?
Please my dear friend educate me .

Thanks a lot . But I have already paid my 1st term fees and health insurance about 7,170 Aud. Also I have also applied for the visa. Icant really pull out now .
but is it possible for me to apply for PR once I complete my TAFE? ( If I get the visa)

quote author=NNBB2012 post=35012431]

Go through the previous posts and read the steps to take. You do not need to apply as a student when you have all it takes to get your PR. Looking at your details, you have the following points:

Age-30points
Qualification-15
Experience-10
IELTS 7 in each module?-10 points
Total-65points.
Please run with this and forget TAFE idea.[/quote]
TravelRe: General Australian student Visa Enquiries Part 2 by samuelokwu: 10:06pm On Jun 21, 2015
[Yes I got my I CAN in 2007 during my service year.
Pls w hat exactly am I qualified for? What steps do I take ? Please advise me so I can be informed I beg you.

All this will be if the TAFE visa application which I submitted on June 11 not successful.

Please enlighten me




quote author=ferdimako post=35006709]
If being chartered means u have ICAN or some certification aside ur B.Sc and ur a 7 means 7 on all IELTS bands...u are qualified.

Are u referring to sparodic jumping of your speedometer ? If yes then I am almost 100% that the issue is your speedometer sensor.
I had a similar experience with my Acura legend . Online Acura mechanic gave me the solution . I went to ladipo , bought the sensor , gave my mechanic to fix. They were waiting to laugh at me cos all their guess work had failed so far . To our surprise, it fixed the issue and the movement stabilized.
best of luck
