lawland: Your Explanation letter as you called it has a lot of irrelevant information in it.. Those info are capable of denying you visa.. Your Sponsorship letter is better but got a lot of errors in it and also need to be more convincing...

Did I send u these?

Sorry lawland if my question sounds funny all I wanted to know is if I can use japan visit visa to enter Australia

Since some people don't know what SOP is, I decided to copy and paste this sample I got from another forum... Mind you that I didn't use this, but I believe this will help a lot of people cos this is a typical SOP..

While writing an sop, you must make sure that
your sop has a body to it. This means that it
should be well structured and should be
answering various questions asked under GTE.
One of the most valuable lessons that I have
learnt from life is to make the best of what I have.
I believe this is one of the most important rules
than can help one survive in a developing country
like Pakistan. A lot is written and said about
Pakistan these days; that it is begging for good
governance; is rife with mismanaged assets; is
plagued by rampant corruption – the problems
listed are endless. The one problem that has
always irked me lies in the fact that the majority
of the privileged class – and I call it “privileged” in
as much, as it can afford a decent education –
tends to get educated “for the sake of getting
educated”: they lack aims and goals, and simply
hope to find the same along the way.
It was during the start of my A Levels that I truly
realized the importance of setting goals in life. I
believe that up until that time, I was the clichéd
“underachiever”; however a good result in my A
Levels helped me change that notion, and put it
to rest for good. Today my aim is to bring a
positive change in my country and help it rise
amongst other nations. I believe that the key to
excellence lies in the maximization of one’s
potential. I have opted for your postgraduate
course in International Business because it is the
precise area where I can excel and maximize my
own potential.
I believe that my will to excel has been generated
by the social conditions in Pakistan; seeing the
plight of others who are surrounded by financial
distress makes one truly and humbly realise how
wealthy are those who have the fortune of being
able to afford an education. It is this very
realisation that has always compelled me to make
the most of my shot at getting educated, and
now that this feeling has fully entrenched itself
within my soul, I am determined to make it count
not just for my sake, but also for the sake of my
fellow countrymen to whom I owe as much as I
owe to myself.
I have been studying social sciences and its
various forms since 2003. Last year I completed
my Bachelors in Accounting and Finance as an
external student of the University of London
International Programmes. This is a very rigorous
course that becomes especially so for external
students since they lack access to a wider range
of materials. Through sheer hard work, dogged
determination and continuous motivation by my
teachers, I finished as one of only five students to
get an upper second class honours. For a student
who used to be continuously reminded that he
was underachieving, this was a feat to take a lot
of pride in. Yet, I feel that I am incomplete
without taking another proverbial leap into the
academic vortex.
Over the years, I have had opportunities to
further my interest in business management and
operations. I have interned as an assistant
accountant in my summer break with Digi
Computers (Exporters).This work experience was
my first step in entering practicalities of my
career. During the course of my internship, I
worked with senior accountants, which
enlightened me with the practical implications of
accounting. I have also served as Teacher’s
Assistant during my undergraduate program for
two consecutive years. I marked assignments and
conducted frequent tutorials. I believe this
experience contributed immensely in
strengthening my grip over my subjects and in
learning how to apply them. I can also stake a
claim that I deal well with people in general; this
was proved by the fact that I was elected as Head
of the Student Council for my university in
2010-11.
My decision to select University of Technology
Sydney for its Master of Professional Accounting
program was purely based on firsthand research.
I undertook thorough research so as to select the
best possible option for a bright career. Having an
internationally acceptable undergraduate degree
and access to all the best educationalists, UTS
appealed the most to me. The said program is
being offered by various universities across the
globe, each offering its own unique course
composition. Canadian universities like Brock
University offered a similar program but it lacked
the industry relevance, while the University of
Sheffield in the United Kingdom had a program
which was based more on theory. Similar
programs are being offered by various universities
in Pakistan, but they lack the embryonic nature of
accounting. No doubt that the professional
programs in Pakistan do meet the international
calibre but the accounting bodies in Pakistan lack
the active participation and this gap of
collaboration is clearly depicted in the offerings of
the universities. With the international
harmonization in accounting standards, I feel that
the programs in Pakistan are slightly outmoded.
The MPA at UTS not only provides in-depth
knowledge of accounting but also encompasses
the legal environment that concerns the field of
accounting.
Australia has a diverse-multi cultural
environment. The young and energetic Australian
society welcomes international students. Based
on my search over the internet and
correspondence with acquaintances, the safe
environment, religious freedom and sound
economic conditions all speak about Australia for
themselves. Studying in Sydney will make this
experience more delightful. The weather won’t be
unforgiving, Sydney is a popular tourist
destinations which means it always will have
something to offer throughout the year. Coming
to the practical aspects, studying the field of
accounting in the economic hub of Australia
means that I will be lectured by the best industry
practitioners. UTS offers industry realistic
teaching methods. Being a leader in research,
UTS provides access to world class facilities. Apart
from that it has excellent student support which
is not limited to education provision only. The
ideal location of UTS in Central Business District
adds to it being the top choice.
Getting equipped with a Master’s degree in
Professional Accounting will open doors of
opportunities for me to grow as an individual and
to serve my country. I aspire to become a valued
player in the marketplace, empowered with the
professional acumen required to make critical
business decisions. Master in Professional
Accounting will provide me with countless
opportunities for industry experience, business
networking and a sound knowledge to start a
prospering career. It will help stimulate my
entrepreneurial vision and curiosity together with
enhancing my business knowledge. I can claim
with conviction that my innovation and analytical
approach will encourage me to understand new
and current accounting issues.
Upon completion, I intend to continue the legacy
of growth of my family business. I strongly believe
that after acquiring this degree there is enough
aptitude for me to get in the family business and manage my area of specialization i.e. accounts. In the long run, I intend to offer consultancy services at affordable rates so as to help all classes of businessmen. I believe I am much
closer to this market since I have been running
my own business, dealing in exports of finished
products. For this very reason, I am more
appreciative of the role prospective graduates can
play in helping these businesses understand the
essence and importance of organization. This
degree will serve as the core of my arsenal if I am
to venture into relatively unexplored terrain and
maximise my potential.
In my absence, the entire business will be
managed by my brother (Business Partner). I plan
to return and re-join the business as soon as I
complete my degree, whereupon I shall
endeavour to put my learning into practice. My
studies will be fully funded from the loan facility
that has been availed against our savings (Fixed
Deposit), while additionally; my brother has also
undertaken to assist me in funding.
It is an admitted fact that I withdrew my previous
visa application after a long and arduous visa
processing period that spanned for more than 8
months without any result or decision. This is due
to the fact that I am eligible under the new
Streamline Visa Processing and I feel that my
application will be dealt with more efficiently and
expeditiously via this new system. This initiative
taken by the Australian Government is a very
beneficial scheme for genuine prospective
students like me and will expedite visa processing
so that such students may be able to attend their
courses on time.
I feel that Australia and specifically the University
of Technology Sydney will be a great place to
study and provide me with a chance to broaden
my horizons. I sincerely hope that I will be
bestowed a chance to study in Australia.

Reasons Why your Australia Student Visa Can be Refused
Now adays Australia is favorite destination for
international students. Though education in
Australia is quite expensive as compared to
other major countries like USA, UK, Canada but
still there are many reasons why international
students choose Australia for their higher
studies. In November 2011, Australia introduced
streamlined visa processing for university
students. At the same time, Genuine Temporary
Entrant (GTE) rule was introduced. All students
applications are assessed under GTE rules
whether prospective students are genuinely
coming for purpose to get higher education or
they are using study visa as their tool to enter
Australia. After implementation of this rule, the
number of refusal has increased. Genuine
Temporary Entrant (GTE) contains a set of rules
under which each student visa application is
assessed.
How Genuine Temporary Entrant (GTE)
Works
According to Australian Immigration and
Citizenship (immi.gov.au) GTE will not affect your
student application if your wish to study in
Australia is genuine. However applicant may
thing how visa officer will assess that student's
wish to study is genuine or not. Here is the list of what Australian visa officer will consider to judge your student visa application;
Your previous study record
Relevance of your intended course to your
previous studies
Your knowledge about the course and your
institute
Your previous immigration history
Gap between your previous studies and
intended study course
Reasons why you are choosing the specific
course to pursue
Reasons why you have chosen the specific
education institute
Reason why you are choosing Australia for
higher education
Your financial capacity to meet educational
and living expenses in Australia
Economic, social and political circumstances
of your country of residence
This is not complete list of the refusal factors but
most of the applicants are refused for one or
combination of two or more reasons. Most of the
students refused under GTE rules do not get
review or appeal right. However they can apply
again. If your are refused under GTE and
thinking to reapply then you must prepare your
application carefully and provide as much
supporting evidences as your can to make visa
officer satisfy that you are a genuine student
applicant.

Meeting financial requirement is one of the major criteria one has to pass... But I must say you are in good position having such amount of money at least for now... I advise you find a school under SVP as soon as possible and apply to them... Read the whole of this trend and also marry www.immi.gov.au for the next 1 month.. I believe you find it helpful.. I will be here if you need further assistance..
