When will the Australian embassy begin to grant applicants their student visas this year 2021? Or have they started inviting Nigerians for visa collection? |

There is a possibility of elections in November. The PM will not like to take a risk on COVID entering the country so as not to impact his performance in the election. A lot of the premiers were able to ride on this to win their elections. They will be open to more risks around border after the elections lomaxx: |

When will the Australian embassy begin to grant applicants their student visas this year 2021? Or have they started inviting Nigerians for visa collection? My student visa was granted today.(Submitted my application in December, 2020) for me and my two children(Dependent) I will like to know if I can commence application for the rest of my family members while still in Nigeria. 1 Like 1 Share |

Thanks for this. I have another situation at hand, my sponsor is my cousin (her mum is my mum’s cousin) and my agent is saying that it my not fly because the distance is too much. I would appreciate any advise from anyone. Pls note that this person travels to the US and UK a lot and from what I heard they share information. Thank you VickayThrills: |

I was hoping that one day I would give my testimony on this thread. I got my 5-year visa grant yesterday for a PhD in Medicine at the University of New South Wales. Applied Feb 3, 2021 and it has been 3+ interesting months. I did it all by myself because of the experiences shared on this thread - I started from the very beginning and read every page. This is me saying thank you to everyone that shared their stories. Now we wait for the borders to open. 16 Likes 2 Shares |

Re: General Australian Student Visa Enquiries Part 3 by AyaE: 5:47pm On May 15, 2021 |
Not to discourage you but from the look of things and the way the new budget is set up, I highly doubt the borders will open this year. However, I heard some schools are pushing to bring in students this year and with the crisis in India, one can only hope they look to Africa. My advice is, whilst keeping the faith alive pls be realistic. Aussie be like movie cos e shock me say dem fit lock border for one full year � sokia4real: |
Re: General Australian Student Visa Enquiries Part 3 by AyaE: 5:54pm On May 15, 2021 |
The relationship is indeed far but I think with the right packaging and the God factor, nothing is impossible. Can't the sponsor transfer the funds to your mum? Maybe if the sponsor pays your fees using her account and write a very convincing letter of sponsorship saying why she wants to sponsor you (e.g your mum accommodated her or sponsored her in school when her family could not afford it)...it might work. Ask your agent for other possible options. You will have to show proof of relationship tho. seunfoster: |

Most Nigerians do disability work because the hours are flexible and the pay is fair. I'm not sure about driving a tractor because you would still have to convert your nigerian driver's license to aussie and the standard class is class C which restricts you to a certain type of vehicle depending on the weight. So if you bring the normal licence here it will not be equivalent to the one required to drive a tractor. Other skills you can learn is hair braiding or servicing of cars I guess. Just worry about getting to aussie and having some money to 'hold body' for like 4 months. P.S: beg your dad (or save up) to pay for at least half of the second semester. Dan113: 1 Like |
Re: General Australian Student Visa Enquiries Part 3 by alao1981: 6:51pm On May 15, 2021 |
Congrats indeed. This was the approach I took in getting my visa last year. I am curious though, did you get funding? Reason I ask is that UNSW is one of the most expensive schools over there and I had to abandon their offer when I did not get funding from them. BTW, I got a mail from my school deferring my resumption to July 2022 (I did not even ask them). So, there is some realisation that newly commencing student not likely form a big chunk of the small batches that may enter the country this year and early next year lomaxx: |

alao1981: Yeah I had a scholarship. Funny thing is I had the scholarship in Nov 2019 but I couldn’t take up the offer. The scholarship was given again in Jan 2021. That’s when I knew it was destiny � The total tuition is about $210,000 so I agree with the expensive bit. 1 Like 1 Share |

ocpaschal: DHA have been granting visas since the beginning of the year. One of my students got visa on Friday, some of my colleagues students too got visas last month. The major problem now is the opening of border to allow those with visas travel. 1 Like |

wildchild1: that is serious... my brother still hasn't gotten his student visa.... He applied for scholarship (Masters) which he got since April last year 2020 and paid fees by December. Yet He has not been called from d Australian embassy for visa processing or so ever since he did and submitted his medical assessment test this year.... What could be the reason for the delay? |

Re: General Australian Student Visa Enquiries Part 3 by alao1981: 3:11pm On May 18, 2021 |
Just to be clear, the Australian embassy will not call you for visa processing. It is all done online on the immi portal. If he has submitted his application on the portal and submitted his biometrics at VFS, he should continue to check. If they require any information from him, they will typically send an email with the request. If his application is still under review, the status will state so on the portal ocpaschal: |
