His situation is beyond a strong SOP. Let him list the evidence he provided and it will become clear why he was refused.

I was meant to say GTE

denzel231:

Good day bro,

Please use your internet more. You can search most of these things online.

here is the link: https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/help-support/tools/points-calculator

denzel231:

Chizzyvivian:
Still waiting for visa decision.

Good luck. A decision would usually be made a week or 2 before commencement.

denzel231:

denzel231:

What city is your wife in??

Samstan4:
A friend just got a refusal and He applied 10th of March

wat was the reason for the refusal?

Chizzyvivian:
Hello,

My brother made the payment over there.

how is your visa application going @Vivian

Softkey:
What you can study is a personalised question. A little research online will do justice to that.

If your wife includes you in her PR application then you get it if granted.

You might want to check the PR thread for PR criteria related questions.

there are alot to study in 3 months.

You can do a certification in project management, Data analyst, health care etc.

denzel231:
thanks for the response..my wife is already doing her course in Australia. She has been in Australia for about a year + or 2years now. She got to Australia with a visa for masters in global bla bla which was not a good course and also not a PR course, she had to switch to Torrens university this year to study bsch in community service. Her initial visa expired in March this year and she was given a bridging visa but she applied for a new visa while in Australia with my name as dependent, God so kind they approved the visas for both of us..

For the first conditions, this means I can work unlimitedly right when I go and meet her?

For the 2nd condition, it means I can't school using dependent?

That is correct!

emmyomo:
I received an email form my school congratulating me that I am now officially a student of the school. Telling me what I am likely to experience studying on campus, adding me to one of the campus communities. But I am yet to get feedback from embassy, my application is on the 8th week now (biometry and Medicals was 12th of April), and my start date is early July.
Plz house does the email has any significance to my visa application?

You should hear from them before the start of your school. They usually process the ones closer to their school start date faster.

denzel231:
As a dependent,
can someone work full time in Australia?
Can someone also school?
Can someone get PR?

Just asking . Thank you .

As a dependant, Yes you can work full time. not sure about school. u can also apply for PR if u meet the points

aodis:
wat about geelong, do you know anyone?

when are u off to Geelong??

Infoagents:
Hi guys please I have an enquiry to make ; I was refused a student visa (Master’s) on 13 January 2023 on the bases that I didn’t provide enough evidence of my relationship with my sponsor also that I may not have access to the money in the account of my sponsor . NB : (brother-in-law is my sponsor) .
I addressed the problem and reapplied again on the 2nd March 2023 with the same sponsor . I received again another refusal on 23rd May 2023 on the basis that the economic situation in my home country outweighs that in Australia therefore they’re not convinced that I’ll return after my study , now Torrens University has canceled my CoE and asked me to apply for withdrawal and refund which I have done . So someone is advising that I apply for admission to a LV1 school (UNSW) and use my dad as my sponsor , get their COE and reapply maybe I could stand a chance of getting a visa , please guys I need your suggestions on this matter .

Did you not write a strong statement of purpose? that shows you have strong ties to nIgeria and will be coming back after Masters?

please is any one coming to Melbourne soon?? let's talk

Bachelor.

willian10:
Masters or bachelor in Nursing science?

mexsquare:
Hello guys, I secured admission to UNSW through an agent last month.
The problem however is that the school fees is very expensive but my agent says that I can ALWAYS switch to another school for the same course when I get to Australia.
He also says that the entire Visa process will be easier since it is an L1 school.
I am just concerned about the possibility of switching to a cheaper school in a regional area whilst maintaining the same course.
Do you guys think I should focus more on getting to Australia for now?

might be difficult. switching to another school or course will be harder from July as per new law

Fxsacramento:
What are the chances for PR, when one goes for a bachelor's or masters degree in Public health?

Very low.
Nursing has a better chance for PR!

Dreaming of a February surprise
By Minabere Ibelema

I had a dream that when the result of the February 16 presidential election was announced, the winner was neither incumbent Muhammadu Buhari nor contender Atiku Abubakar. Rather it was a presidential candidate who hardly anyone has heard about.

Okay, it was actually a daydream, a flight of fancy. Yet, it is not beyond the realm of possibility. Blame the daydream on the widespread dissatisfaction among Nigerian voters regarding the binary choice before them. To many of Buhari’s 2015 supporters, he has been a disappointment. For reasons within and beyond his control — mostly the latter — there has been no discernible improvement in the plight of the masses. Moreover, he has done much to vindicate critics who said in 2015 that he is too ethnocentric to lead Nigeria.



On the other hand, many voters see Atiku as another of the old brigade, another recycling of political leadership. That’s why Atiku has not been able to ignite the fuse of enthusiasm that Buhari did in 2015. Besides, Atiku comes with his own political baggage, dogged as he is by allegations of corruption. It is in this context that one’s imagination has to be excused for conjuring up a scenario for a February surprise.

Of the 91 registered political parties, most are parties only by name, having membership that might not fill up a small classroom. But numbers add up, and there is strength in numbers. Just ask Jonathan Swift — Ah!!! He bemusingly illustrated this in one of his tales in Gulliver’s Travels, the travel to Lilliput. Though the Lilliputians were so tiny that Gulliver could fit several in his palm, they nonetheless bound him and compelled him to do their will.

Nigeria’s Lilliputian parties can do something similar. I imagined them starting with a web-based joint convention facilitated with social media. In the course of the convention, they would fuse their various lofty platforms and form a Congress of Micro-Parties (CMP). The convention will then choose a presidential candidate from among the attendees, most likely the presidential candidate of one of the mini-parties.

CMP could then rev up enthusiasm through social media. Given that a most of the mini-parties were formed by young people and given their superior social media savvy, they could distance the APC and PDP in galvanising interest via digital media.

I also envision these young people lobbying their parents, uncles and aunts to give change a chance. They would lay out their plans for reform in concrete terms, not just rhetoric.

All this will happen so rapidly that it will catch the establishment parties and politicians unprepared for counter measures — not even rigging. And so, before we know it, there is a new political order in Nigeria, a concrete demonstration that the electoral process is a powerful means of change.

This will be a different kind of revolution. Unlike the Tunisia-inspired Arab Spring, for example, it would entail no upheaval. And rather than bringing about democratic rule, it will deepen an existing democracy. Above all, it will wrest political power from those who have long dominated it mostly because of their wealth and scheming. As daydreams go, this seems within reach.

Who’s afraid of the people’s will?



A major reason Nigeria’s democracy has been precarious over the years is that many politicians are unwilling to abide by the people’s will. And so — through vote-buying, rigging, intimidation and even assassinations — they subvert whatever process is put in place to ensure fair elections.

It is not surprising, therefore, that some schemers are now seeking to get around the safeguards of the Permanent Voter Cards and Voter Identification Numbers. INEC Chairman Mahmood Yakubu recently announced the agency’s discovery that partisans are buying the cards and numbers with the goal of skewing the ballot. The fraudsters also collect the sellers’ phone and bank account numbers.

Yakubu speculates that the goal could be to keep voters from voting at all. Or “they may be acting on the mistaken notion that our system can be hacked and the card readers somehow preloaded ahead of the election and compromised,” Yakubu said. “We want to reassure Nigerians that we are aware of the new tricks. It is a futile effort.”

One hopes so. It is difficult to stop desperate people. And desperate politicians do desperate things.

Talking of desperate people, some of them saw it fit to disrupt the All Progressives Congress’ inaugural campaign rally at Ikeja on Tuesday. The violence was apparently perpetrated by rival factions of the National Union of Road Transport Workers, some of whose leaders were participating in the rally.

As The PUNCH reported, “Confusion thereafter ensued as the hoodlums, suspected to be supporters of MC Oluomo and Mustapha Adekunle, aka Seigo, another union leader, invaded the arena with guns, daggers, cutlasses and other weapons, leading to a free-for-all.”

Question is why would rival union members use the occasion of a party rally to engage in warfare? Despite the sustained gunshots, no fatalities were indicated in the initial reports. That suggests that the goal of the sustained shooting wasn’t so much to kill, but to disrupt the campaign. It is evidence that the next five weeks may not merely be raucous, they will be tumultuous.

The question of who is afraid of the people’s will mustn’t be disposed of here without comment on the attempted coup in Gabon. Of particular interest is President Muhammadu Buhari’s reaction to it.

“The military officers in Gabon should understand that the era of military coups and governments in Africa and indeed worldwide, is long gone,” Buhari is quoted as saying on Tuesday through a media assistant. “Democracy is supreme and the constitutional stipulations on the peaceful change of administration must be respected. That is the only way we can ensure peace and stability not only within the country but also in the region.”

“Amen” — and the equivalent in Islam — I can hear people chorus. It has to be very assuring to hear that view from someone who, as an army officer, overthrow an elected government and installed himself the head of state. We can now see why Buhari pleaded and got the press to stop referring to him as a general.

Even more assuring with this extolment of democracy is Buhari’s implicit pledge to ensure fair electionsnext month. After all, democracy based on compromised elections is much like a house built on sinking sand. That couldn’t possibly be the democracy he has in mind.Do I hear some more “Amen” to that?

U can surely make money from binary, depending on your level of education concerning binary trading.

As for me, I use autorobot software which trades for me at any time of the day without doing any work at all.

So I don't need to have the knowledge of trading before earning daily on binary.

U can contact me through my signature for more info.

Na so
