@observant na God carry you come back here..thank you very much..please come and respond to me

i have been to australian study thread,the addmision processing and visa processing is not like this f**kin' canada.But my difficulty is that i don't know where to start from. On like this Canada thread you would atleast see document listed and submitted for visa application and suggestions.
my question goes like this cos i feel i have made the mistake applying for a PGD in canada because i couldn't afford to wait for their biting long admission duration of MASTERS when i have a 2.1 of (3.59) that would have atleast fetch me MEng program or Msc program by luck in canada so i am considering a back up plan if CIC no gree stamp my passport.

1) i studied E/E engineering with 2.1(3.59) with my last 3yrs UG GPA of 3.90,4.09,4.00,3.77,3.90,3.89 will this comfortably fetch me Masters program in Australia/USA with anticipated specialization in POWER SYSTEM ENGINEERING or RENEWABLE ENERGY

2) how long does it take to get admission decision from Australian schools and since they now require proof of funds, how much is expected to be in my sponsor's acccount

3) please can you provide me with AUSTRALIAN immigration website lemme check their study permit procedures and requirements for students and which low tuition uni. could you advise me to apply if you know any?

lemme quickly also drop this information request on their thread to know if i will be opportune for a sophisticated answer

@standupguy..Its good u ordered the gcms. And from the gcms,CIC even keeps track of the number of refusals. Now I have a feeling that its thesame person that worked on ur previous refusals that the file goes to.

Dat 8yrs thing na the koko....was it like that in ur 2 previous app?That is a great error cos they might just think u won't be able to complete school and that's irrespective of whether u got admissions or not.

And again, was it really necessary to state that u will be living with ur sis?Many pple didn't show proof of accommodation neither did they pay for any and got TRV. Some info like this is not advised at all especially if ur funds are in order just like urs is...

I know u are already looking into Australia, bt should u wanna try again. Fix this!

Cheers!

@Standupguy

This your case, ehn, i cant even place it.

There appears to be something CIC wants from you which you havent provided or have previously overlooked-You do seem to have Finance, and the choice of course appears to be in your favour.

The one problem i see is you being single, and of course your sister sponsorshi and housing - which in fairness, is usually a red flag even for American visa applications.

Like u rightly noted tho, the oversight wrt your date of completion of previous program also did not help matters.

My advice is; if you have ur previous gcms files, please look deeply into it and relate it to the documents you submitted or didnt submit - No application is perfect, and i dont want to believe they are unethically exploiting you or anyone-If your application convinces them, they will gladly issue you a TRV.

I believe you will get it, just dont give up.

No worries

What's your proposed Australian school of choice? Try Australia bro, you definitely won't regret it. Quality education and captivating atmosphere. You might wanna try ECU or Murdoch? Best of luck man and remember, giving up is a sin.

erictack203:
My brother, those ppl thinks they are God and they are not, I will not re-apply to beg them to gimme Visa when I am spending my money. Australian should not pretend they don't need the money. Currently, Australia realize almost 14billion dollars per annum from International Students, that is why the Minister is trying to introduce the new SSVF.

I told my friends and loved ones, that if they don't grant me Visa, I will not beg, I will live my life here and assist ppl on this thread they way I can, like I said b4, every1 must not goto or enter Australia, some ppl are destined to help others achieve their goals towards a success in their Visas. I think I am such person, I have been refused Visas to Study severally in some Countries, I decided to try Oz, same thing, and yet I have helped over 500ppl to travel as Students, so u guys should be surprise y mine don't work, my destiny is not in overseas. It's here in 9ja. I dun try reach, make I rest. Yet I always get Visas for Visits and Zero for studies.

erictack203:
Ok dear, I am still thinking about it, whether to continue my interest in oz or not. I can have my MD write to them and add the Company registration documents as well as add my own personal company docs where I and my wife are the shareholders, we usually do supplies of phamacitical Materials, I can also attach a bank statement showing transactions on the Company name. I get docs to backup, but it occurred to me whether if I really need Australia, we are doing well here in 9ja.

If not that I am thinking of the situation of the Country. Kinda confuse though. I will think whether I need their Visa or not, afterall am going there to spend several millions annually. It's sucks.

lawland:
Did you study at Unizik?

NNBB2012:

If you were informed before now, perhaps you wouldn't have taken the study path. As you are, you are eligible for PR.You have two options. 1. You can assess your qualification as Mechanical Engineer with Engineers Australia without hope of claiming work experience because your experience does not match with your qualification. What it means is that you have to gain enough points of at least 50points on your own to be eligible for at least visa 489. What is your age? Do you have IELTS result?
2. You can approach ACS to be assess as a Computer System Engineer but a non ICT. What it means is that you will loose all the 4yrs experience. You can't claim points from work experience.
You can go with either of this options.
Going through study route is a longer process, and then all you would possibly get is extra 5points for studying in Australia except if you study in regional area that would fetch you extra 10points but then you might also loose point in age. So, think about it.

Pmiller1:

hi bro, yea i did made the inquire and I was told such... It's their policy for SVP, but the money ll be refunded if the visa is refused by immigration as that's the response i got from the school.

@standupguy, you contact them and clarify when u inquire, pls do and give feedback to the house....

Pmiller1:

Under Streamline Visa Processing, applicants are required to pay a deposit of $12,000.00 in order to secure their place. This $12,000.00 will come off the total tuition of $24,000.00 leaving a remaining $12,000.00 to be paid.

At SkillsTech it is their policy to charge a non-refundable deposit of $12,000.00 for Streamline Visa Processing Applications. If your Visa is refused by immigration, you are eligible for a refund.


I hope this helps?

Pmiller1:

It's not unique to schools, but the whole schools under NSW, TAFE NSW are not processing SVP from Nigeria till further notice. same thing happened to me about two months ago, when i apllied and i was given the offer for a diploma not under SVP and i applied for Advanced diploma under SVP. So, we have to lot for schools elsewhere but not TAFE NSW.

erictack203:
Pls check some other schsn, check TAFESA.

Make dem gerrrrrout!

This is serious, y Nigeria? What has Nigeria done in this World?

Avalon316:


Lol. More than 90% of the people who want to go to Canada for studies do not have any plans of coming back,hayqinsbFX inclusive.

hayqinsbFX:
@avalon316

Defnintely not just Nigerians do it. But u and I agree if there was going to be a statistics of the country with more defaulters Nigeria wouldn't be on the favourable side.

The better immigrants are even the ones that defer to a later date to eventually go to school. Some don't even go to school atall after getting into the country on a study visa.

Canada needs people YES! But they frown at insincerity and criminality.
If you want to go and study! Fine, apply for a study permit and make sure u go to school.
If you want to immigrate get into EE and immigrate.

Don't try to by pass the system by faking study intentions just to get into the country.

erictack203:
What is the name of the School that sent you such mail?

hayqinsbFX:
Must it be a PR holder?
And what are the things he must do...
What if he is here in nigeria with me andHas his canadian bank account card here.

hayqinsbFX:
Bro
I think I want to go into the same fight now.
A friend of Mine said if you have a low gpa as a Nigerian it's better if you do a wes evaluation of ur transcript and have it.
He said the wes evaluation could give you up to 3/4 on canadian scale.

I dnt knw how true but I will sure find out.

funmi14:

Good am . What is the actual fee for gcms file application and can your brother help me to apply for it?

richcasey:


How did you get the gcms file? It is annoying because the reason for refusal doesnt hold water at all

omooba2015:

Please, how did you request for GCMS file, and what are the requirements.... Can you help a brother, we can pay to Nigeria Account. Thanks
