Yes you can even call them if it is taking too long.

I advise people to only contact embassies if resumption is very close and nothing from them.

thanks

Are you a visa agent ?

Have you done various visa applications for over 100 students and visitors in the last 5 years ?

This is what we have been doing since 2005.

People deported from USA and got Canada visas to return back to the USA by crossing.

Don't let me be spilling here. You don't know what you are saying.

This is a fact. The only embassies that share info are schengen countries.

You only saying based on your assumption.

Like i said to you before stop deceiving and misleading applicants here, do not encourage them to lie or withhold any info in their visa application form.

International travelers often have these questions: Is my data safe with a country when I apply for a visa? Is it shared with other countries? If the U.S. denied my visa will the Canadian Embassy have access to this information?

The answer to all these questions is ‘Yes’ and that can be alarming.

2009 marked the year that officially allowed the exchange of specific biometric data between participant countries of the ‘Five Country Conference (FCC).’ The member countries, namely: the United Kingdom, the United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, agreed to share biometric data from applications for visa and other immigration benefits of potential immigrants to jointly combat illegal immigration under the High Value Protocol Data Sharing (HVDS) initiative.

The information I gave is a fact based on my experiences and it depends on applicants to choose their path.

I won't talk about it again as i feel it is wrong to encourage people to lie but that information is not misleading as it is based on numerous practical experiences.

Case closed.

Of course the info you gave out here is misleading and dangerous to say the least. Its not factual and can only lead to refusal and possible ban.

Please put a stop to this, this thread should only be used to encourage applicants to do the right thing.

zimunachimdi:



what abt account statement? i have been advised not to do money lodgement. but what i want to know is can someone who doesn't have the same surname with me sponsor me? what should be the least amount.

My people. God bless you for all the information. please help us answer this Question ooo

Please House, If i get admission without English (IESLT ACAD) test, will it be required during visa application? Because i checked New England univer, is like i can still apply without an english test. Help me answer plsssss. Thanks! i meant will I be required to produce an English test result during visa application?

ugomnaanny:
West Africa n gurus here, pls is it advisable to call or send an email to know d status of my application?

When did you apply and when does school commence?
Its always adviceable to lodge your application 3 months before your travel time.

Edandy:


My people. God bless you for all the information. please help us answer this Question ooo

Yes it adviceable not to have money lodgment but if you do, you can cover yourself by having your sponsor write a letter of sponsorship and that he has deposited some funds in your account for the purpose of your studies. Hopefully the money lodgement doesn't come from many different sources.

Yes anyone can sponsor you only if you have applied as an AL1 applicant.

The total balance in your account does not really matter thou you need to have a constant inflow and outflow of funds and a reasonable amount of money as a closing balance.

That is not true, why would a complete stranger invest millions in you and how would you convince the embassy that it is act of charity/good will gesture?

UNE is on a AL1 so you won't be required by the embassy

Not anyone can sponsor. The only acceptable sponsors are Your parents, spouse, sisters and brothers, uncle or aunt (PR or citizen of Oz or nz).

Even in the GTE forms or acceptance forms, most universities list the sponsor options there.

I know someone in australia who recently got his visa. His uncle in America sponsored him. If your are under AL1 its fine otherwise you will need those aforementioned to sponsor you.

favouredme:

There is a graduate entry option into nursing for people without a nursing qualification,how about trying that option instead? depending on your age, you may have a bigger fish to fry ( if you do not declare your previous bsc) in an attempt to explain the gaps (i.e what you were doing during the periods you were actually studying for your bsc pub admin , which I presume will be 4 years ? ) there are also graduate entry options into social work you may wish to consider that as well.

please which school has graduate entry into social work?

Yes there are heaps of good people every where except for most african countries which Nigeria is very much included. There are good people in australia who have individually sponsored others for permanent residency.
Most Oyibos are good people they help without thinking twice or looking for repayments. I am a testimony.

I just used the Documentary Evidence List to access myself on AL1 applicant but found out that things have changed since 31st of March 2017
The Document Checklist Tool has been updated.

If you intend to lodge a student visa application on or after 31March 2017, you are encouraged to re-check the document checklist based on your country of passport and education provider before lodgement. Your evidence requirements might have changed.


Prior to that date anyone could sponsor you. For example:

If your parents are old and have retired?

If your parents helped your sponsor when he was growing up and now he decided to help you in the name of payback?

If your sponsor sees you a lot of prospect in you and decided to invest in you?

If your sponsor is a philanthropist?

Immigration hardly check on that or even deny your visa base on that. Australia may share database with New Zealand and USA with Canada but not UK and USA etc.
Immigration does not have the time to do background checks on that.
But then it doesn't mean one has to lie about it when asked.

Honestly I can't believe that this is coming from you. Immigration does not have time to do their job? Who told you that?

Dude please stop giving people false hope and be honest with them. Yes there are good people but how many are willing to spend millions on strangers on constant basis?

Hello, please I want to find out if embassy accepts Attestation of birthday declaration for student visa processing. Thanks

Please is there anyone currently studying in tasamina university? Have some questions to ask .please who is doing a PhD now should pls respond. Thank you.

An uncle is not a stranger, an uncle can sponsor his nephew or niece if his is financially capable because they share the same family name.

You are also giving wrong information. According to the recent update from immigration, only your parents or spouse can sponsor you on AL1 which i just posted the url in my previous comment.

I have not asked anyone to go loom for a stranger. Prior to now ANYONE could sponsor you as an AL1 which includes a stranger.

My response was based on the question asked "can anyone sponsor me?" ANYONE includes strangers okay. So if a person is lucky to find a stranger then their luck.

When I was about to apply for my PR i had people i never knew from Adams wanting to provide their company documents so I can stay in Australia.

Strangers can invest in people they see prospect in or they want to help.

[quote author=bblessed post=55219953][/quote]
If you have a friend or family member who runs a business in Australia and meet up the requirements for sponsorship they can sponsor you. Hence, you still need to write the english test as it part of the requirements for PR.

Dont worry about birth certificate or attestation. Your certified passport, drivers licence and national identity card will do.

Go to the documents checklist tool, answer all the questions and get the result of what you are required to submit.

figur:
Please house my questions is this: what if during medicals it is revealed that I'm pregnant, would it affect my chances of being granted visa?

How old is your pregnancy? Usually blòod test does not cover for pregnancy test and chest and CT scans does not show your stomach. If your bump is very obvious, your panel doctor may advice you not to go for your chest x-ray or may inform dibp about it when submitting your result.

I know an ex work mate from Zimbabwe who came on a student visa and had her baby 5months after. That was 3 years ago so don't know if rules have changed. Presently dibp change rules on every visa subclass on a monthly bases.

UNE is on a AL1 so you won't be required by the embassy

That's misleading info, UNE Isn't AL1 at all. If you want to know how to check which level of assessment unis fall under, use the link provided by Westafrican.

@justwise, you're always on here arguing what you don't know. Countries don't share people's data except the person is suspected of crime, or was previously arrested in one those countries, even the backwater link you posted says so if you read further. As student visa applicants, Embassies work with the info provided to them, they have absolutely no time to check everyone's data with other countries, again, except the application seems suspicious or the applicant is from a very high risk terrorist country.

This is how you hid my post because I responded to a question that Embassies don't have time to confirm every bank statement, considering the amount of applications the receive, unless it's outright suspicious. Banks don't just release people's info, it's a breach of confidentiality and they can be sued, I know this because I worked in a Nigerian bank for years, and I have friends who are senior officers in Embassies.

I understand that you want people to do the right thing and I want that as well, but you don't have to lie or mislead people just to scare them. You can encourage people to do the right thing by telling it as it really is, and letting them know the consequences of their choices.

Plus Nigerians need to understand their rights to privacy and confidentiality when dealing with Embassies and other organisations.
