I am really interested in finding out the exact amount. What time does school close, is ther after school service?

Permanent residents and citizens get subsidy for child care up to 60% of the cost below. But temporary residents including student visa will have to pay all this money out of their pocket.

So daycare ranges depending on centres.
$90-110/child/day for a standard basic registered daycare. Most operate from 7am - 6pm/7pm.
There are also family daycares about $60-$80/day/child(some registered). Then there is back of house daycare lesser than $50/day or about $6-$10/hr(not registered) these ones are flexible. The down part is they are not registered and may not have the basic skills and requirements to cater for children hence been risky for your child.

Normal school hours (Pry & Sec) runs from 8am/830am to 230pm/3pm.
Most schools (Pry) provide or have arrangements with after school care (you will pay) till around 6pm or 7pm.

Budget about $8k - $10k/session (3terms) for a primary pupil study expenses in a government school. Catholic&private cost more.
Then $10k - $15k/session in Secondary school.

I applied for admission at Macquarie University for Master's degree, which will commence on 27 July 2020 (Session 2), studying online is the only option the offered me. should I defer the offer to the next available intake or is there any possibility that there will be lockdown lift before July 2020.
My aim is to acquire PR after my studies. Please I need your advice.

Get the facts right from the Uni,
Are you applying for an online degree?
Or the online mode is due to the travel restrictions.
If the later is the case, you can accept it albeit go through the normal process of getting your COE and applying for a visa.
Then be able to travel as soon as restrictions are lifted.

You can go to the Ports Health. It is by the toll gate for the domestic airport (off airport road).

5m for addmision and Visa while your sponsor must have a minimum of 16m bank statement balance for 3-6 months.

Hi, i wanted to ask if spending such amount for a graduate study is worth it. I mean the return of investment, is it great (how is the job market over there)?but i can see you live in Lagos so you might not really have a honest answer for this. Please feel free to air your opinion and others can contribute.

Warm Regards

Nowadays, school will refer you to agent to complete your application even when you start by yourself.

I'm really Grateful for this...

Please, what if I want to go as a Graphics/Animation Artist


Go for study? Or PR?
For study, this might help
https://cricos.education.gov.au/

I don't know about that field for PR.
You can check the PR thread here on NL.

Just a reminder that you need a degree and/or certification in any field you intend to use for PR.

Just to clarify that the 5m mentioned expires after first semester (6months) of study.
Then #4m there about per semester for another 3 semester = #12m. That is roughly #17m total.

The job market is good, you will mostly get something to do and earn decently.

Personally i feel you can even out and recoup your investment in 2 years after study, the rest years becomes profit �.

You can get Masters of Nursing, graduate entry with your result and degree.
But graduate nursing without previous nursing experience or degree may raise a flag with immigration even if you get admission.
You can think about applying for masters of public health. Then apply for the masters of nursing when you are onshore.
The first semester of public helath will be the sacrifice, but you can always claim credit for any completed unit even if you change course or Uni. You wont have to do that unit again or pay for it.

This may be less expensive and faster.

You have to check individual school for english requirement.

https://cricos.education.gov.au/

You can't escape english test on this journey.
Do it now if you can and get ready to do better later.
It will solidify your application too.

Someone should please help me, my Canada study Visa has been refused for the 5th times, I contacted an agent for Australia visa, he told me my chances of getting Admission is very slim because of the high rate of refusal I got from Canada l, Pls I don't know how True is this

Please I need some guidelines because I don't want to give up on my dreams.

Someone should please tell me list of universities I can apply to, I have 2.2 in Chemistry.
Re: General Australian Student Visa Enquiries Part 3 by Smile4mee01: 9:37pm On May 15, 2020
Brother, I think the Agent is just being fair to you, a greedy agent would collect your money knowing your chances were slim. Mos countries would consider a Canadian VISA refusal a red flag. That is why I never applied to Canada because their rate of refusal is high and could affect your chances with others.

Even here in Australia, they would be worried why an equally good country like Canada has refused you and look at your application more closely.
And I hear these countries share data and information. Maybe its time to look elsewhere especially to countries that don't care much about your refusals. i.e UK, Germany, Netherland.

You could have your Msc. in these countries and choose to migrate to Any country in the world.

Has anyone noticed how easier it is to apply for VISA's to other countries outside of Nigeria, Africa ?

The problem with changing your age doesn't even lie with the transcript. Aussie schools don't really use affidavits anymore. They would rather ask for NPC. Do you have a current/expired international passport? Does it carry your real age? If you do then changing the age is a process that starts from BVN. The change on your passport also has to be from Abuja.
If you don't, then you would need about 2 or more documents to change it. Do you have a current/expired driver's license, voter's card or national ID card? Does it carry your real age? What age does your waec result carry?
I had this problem and I just decided to risk it and use my real age. I was 29 when I got the visa.
If you can change your age then change it. It will increase your chances of a visa truly. An NPC doc will suffice as proof for the errors on your transcript and waec. You have to also remember that you must prove your gap years and have documents to show for it. Can your claimed year fit into this gap?
Note: it's always best to be truthful in your application however if you must lie, make sure your lie is sitting on a SOLID ROCK and nothing can shake it.
