Thanks so much to the concerned people in this group, Oga bellong, Oga scroll... na gode sose.
Please I have tried severally to open the SOL and CSOL links to no avail since yesterday. I and my hubby are both nurses With more than 10years experience and will want to give it a trial. Please what do you advise we do now.
Am becoming anxious that page does not open anytime I try it.


Skills Occupation List with the corresponding Assessing Authorities

I think Bellong already explained the general process. Nursing is on SOL and CSOL for most states. Your assessing body is ANMAC . You are required to have 7.0 or equivalent in all bands In IELTS for Registered Nurse category. Check the ANMAC website for more details. The SOL link is

https://www.border.gov.au/Trav/Work/Work/Skills-assessment-and-assessing-authorities/skilled-occupations-lists/SOL

ANMAC: http://www.anmac.org.au

If you are considering state nomination, I advise you contact the state directly as it is somewhat faster. Check the CSOL of each state/territory.

I'm trying to pay $500 Aud. What do you think I can do bro?
Well you can try the easiest option first. Speak with your bank (s) to see if they can raise your daily limit without necessarily raising your quarterly limit of $1k.

Also try to see if you can split your payments, I'm not familiar with ACS though.

PLEASE I NEED URGENT CONTRIBUTION

I want to submit my ACS evaluation, I have filled the form three times and yet I did not get any email with the application reference number. Also when I got the payment page and I tried to use my Diamond Bank Visa Card, it was rejected and I have enough money in the account to cover the payment. Please did anyone evaluate via ACS recently? If yes what payment method did you use and can someone suggest why I'm not getting email with the reference number from ACS. Please people help me, thanks.
Seeing the current card transfer limits, it is very likely the amount you are trying to pay is above your card limit. As of now, the default limit per card is USD1000 per quarter, and USD300 per day. How much are you trying to pay?

Bro, these guys are not replying my mails o
It depends on which mail you are referring to?
Did IOM Nigeria send you a form? After your inquiry mail, they send you a Case Detail Form to fill your details, your class of visa, and attach documents as earlier stated. After that, they acknowledge receipt and inform you that it takes as long as 2 WEEKS to send you a quote.

@abekeade1, I suspect the reason IOM suspended concessions to students at the time was because of limited slots during the peak period in January and February when Australian schools resume. I suggest you make enquiries now that demand has declined slightly.

Hello,

Good day all. I had my medicals precisely one week ago at Fatayi WILLIAMS clinic and the doctor told me they will send the results last week and I will receive an email but up till now I have not heard anything from the hospital, no email whatsoever and when i check emedical I am told the panel clinic is yet to send the result. Is this normal? I am getting worried, pls advise
No need to be worried. The time frame is 7 working days nd not just 1 week. If you don't get an email from them, I advise you call them on phone. They will have to give you a reason for the delay

@Scrollmeout,
Could u pls confirm an info I stumbled on regarding VISA fees for a new born added to an application after selection from EOI. Is it true you are not required to pay VISA fee for the little one? Thks
Yes it is true. You have to notify DIBP of your wife's pregnancy BEFORE the visa grant. You may have to include her pregnancy report.

Good day,

Pls has anyone recently done medical test for australian permanent residence recently in Lagos? I want to know what the test entails(medical examination, Chest X-ray, HIV), the process and how long the test take (time).

Thank you for your responses.
Depends if you are in Lagos or Abuja. This response is for tests taken at Fatayi Williams Lagos.
All adults above 18 years of age will do all 3 tests above at the cost of 30k, 5.2k and 6k respectively. Children 2 yrs and above will do 501-medical exam at 20k and TBT at 6k respectively. Lastly babies/infants under 2yrs of age will do 501 test alone at 20k.
The results will then be sent to Global Health Sydney in 7 working days, you will receive a mail to that effect. Finally DIBP will be advised on the outcome btw 1-3 working days.
Note that chest xray are taken at St Nicholas hospital, Lagos

Hello scrollmeout, please do you mean BUPA is the responsible for frontloading medicals.. Because I
just applied for Aussie visa on 18 feb, and did medicals on 19th Feb. Please explain..
Your panel clinic/physician conducts the tests offshore. However, the results are reviewed to determine if further tests are required. That's why the results were forwarded to Global Health, Sydney. Sorry, BUPA is responsible for this for onshore clients.

In any case, it's nothing to be worried about

Fellow Nairalanders, please what does it mean when fatai Williams clinic, sends you an email saying your medicals/x-ray has been submitted electronically to global health Sydney..


Please someone should explain to me.
your medical case has been referred to BUPA who will review it and make a decision. Don't worry , give it 2 - 3 working days.
You will be advised on what to do should you need to, nothing you can do about it frankly.

@jorgan, need I say more? You have been enlightened by the boss himself.
I'd just like to add that there are at least 3 different subclasses for general skilled migration 189, 190 and 489. To qualify you need at least 60points (189) or 55 points for 190 and 50 points for 489.
Your occupation and/or education must be listed in SOL for 189 and CSOL for 190/489
Try your best to have the end in view --what you want to study- for how long-what opportunities does it provide after study- In all, do you research and pray about it. All the best! wink

The decision is yours, examine your case critically whether you'll need the additional points or not if you have PR in view after studies. The two year study only makes you eligible for the additional points
