It was an absolute cracker of a match (NRL) Roosters 24 vs 25 Storms. Nail biting to the very end. Does anyone watch NRL here? |
Re: Living In Australia/life As An Australian Immigrant by bellong: 3:09am On Jul 03, 2020 |
FBS: I think you are the only fan. I only follow scores occasionally. I watch the soft version, the AFL. |
Re: Living In Australia/life As An Australian Immigrant by FBS: 4:24pm On Jul 05, 2020 |
bellong:Ah man. I was never really into it until I started watching it and it is glorious. The hits, tackles, passes and all. You just marvel and the abilities and capabilities of the human body. Unbelievable stuff. The only thing that irritates me is when they call it football. It's madly annoying. I watch the AFL as well and it's also fun but not just as explosive as the NRL. |

Good evening house, Please I need your inputs. I hope to be in Australia next year Feb/ March through student visa but my major concern is not knowing if I should apply alone or with my family. Most agent says I should apply alone, after 6months or so my kids and husband can now apply but then my kids are too tender to be in hands of a nanny for the period earlier mentioned. By next year March, my oldest child will be 2years 9month while the other will be 1 year 5 months. My mum is willing to take care of them for a short while (3months) this is because she also hopes to be in the USA for her eye treatment. On the other hand, my husband won't be available all the time to be with them since his work is so demanding and most times takes him out of the state(Works with an international organization). Our plan is to apply at once then after 3 months, he'll resign, picks the kids from my mother, and then comes over. The issue now is what will serve as a strong home tie. We have landed properties and ongoing building but no business. More so, if we decide that I apply alone, what's the possibility of my spouse and kids getting visa to join me soonest? This alone has been the scariest part. Please give me your best suggestions on what you think is the most appropriate way to proceed. Thank you! 1 Like |

Viola2017:Are you looking at the Subclass 500 Student visa? What is the duration and level of intended study? |
Re: Living In Australia/life As An Australian Immigrant by bellong: 5:34am On Jul 09, 2020 |
@Viola2017, Whatever you do, make sure it is a family application. Applying alone will not give you any advantage over applying as a family if you don't satisfy the GTE requirements. Getting a subsequent entrant visa is more challenging than the original visa application as this is an indication that you have made a decision to move permanently after testing the waters . Provide as much evidence as per home ties. Your husband job, your landed properties, family members are all important evidence of home ties. Goodluck. 5 Likes |

FBS:Yes. It's a two years course. Masters |
Re: Living In Australia/life As An Australian Immigrant by Viola2017: 10:16pm On Jul 09, 2020 |
bellong:Thanks for your response sir. As per your reply, since applying alone would have equal chance with applying as a family, I'd prefer to apply with my family. My major concern now is still that strong home ties owing to the fact that my husband works for an organization and would require him to resign if the visa is granted. Won't it be a red flag to the visa officer as he will have nothing to come back to after I'm through with my studies? I have come to realize that most grant are given to familes are preferably people into business which they can easily coordinate from anywhere. I look forward to your response 1 Like |

@Viola2017, Your application should not be making reference to your husband leaving his job. His job should be used as part of the home ties. Provide evidence of employment. It is not a compulsion that he should leave with you immediately. |

[right][/right] ideamaster:This her update is what is keeping my hope alive. NB on expat forum keep discouraging ppl from applying for 491 because he thinks they won't be able to make the approx 54k aud yearly income to be able to apply for PR. Bellacious story gives so much hope. Someone can even take up 2 to 3 jobs to ensure he /she meets up the threshold,many months before the year ends. My prayer is that Aussie shouldn't remove my occupation from the revised occupation list as there are many stories flying that they are reducing migration this year to 20% of what it was last year. |

Hello guys pls which medical tests are needed in order to fly to Australia from Nigeria Which kind of test will they do and does tests results determine approval? |
Re: Living In Australia/life As An Australian Immigrant by Skyrocket1: 3:19am On Jul 31, 2020 |
AustinT575: If you are coming on a PR visa, you would do the following test; Medical Examination (501) which includes Urine test, eye check test, general body check, high blood pressure check, and heart rate check Chest X-Ray (502) HIV Blood Test (707) But if you are just coming on a temporal Visa, you will not be required to do an HIV Blood test unless you are going to study a medical related course. And yes the outcome of your result can affect your visa outcome if you fail the test, most especially the HIV blood test. 1 Like 1 Share |

Skyrocket1: No Hepatitis test? |
Re: Living In Australia/life As An Australian Immigrant by Skyrocket1: 1:48pm On Jul 31, 2020 |
AustinT575: It's up to the department to decide whether that will be included on your test list, but its mostly you will be required to get tested on it because you are applying from overseas. |

Bellacious: Hello, thanks for your input, however, I have 5 burning questions for you, kindly answer to douse my ignorance. How is the job market in Australia for Frontend software engineers or Website Developers? What type of Visa should one apply for without a job sponsorship from Australia? How much does one need in their account to move to Australia as a skilled migrant without a job in Australia i.e. Bloc account, asset declaration etc.? What is the total cost and duration of this process? What would be the cost of moving with my wife who just graduated as a Nurse (Bs.N, RN) and our 3yr son? Lastly, what is the wage for say menial jobs if I don't get the desired job in my field of proficiency. I would really appreciate your input and those of our kind hearted Aussie-Nigerians. Thanks. 1 Like |

@ Belong and skyrocke1, please I need your comments on this. My wife has a provisional admission in one of the schools in Aussie. We have #10m in our savings account and one of her friends is willing to part sponsor her and the person in question has #10m in TB and about #4m in her current account. She is willing to show evident of willingness to part sponsor her via a sworn affidavit. My wife will apply for visa covering herself and our 2 children aged 9 and 6. But she will be going alone to test the waters. The plan is that in 6 to 12 months time, when she must have stabilized, I will apply for my own visa and join her with the children. Now my question: a) will the proof of fund by her part sponsor supported by affidavit be acceptable? b) will I be given visa after 6 to 12 months? One reason for not including myself in the visa is lack of funds. c) by the way, her school is in Perth. Originally she was granted admission in UTAS. But we heard there are no jobs in Tasmania, thus, necessitating our application for admission in Perth. Are there jobs in Perth? |
