Many thanks, they were very helpful. I later found an affordable deal with Qatar, so I will transit through Doha.

Yes my own visa assessment went that way, it came out between 7 to 8 weeks. I wish you success in your application.

denzel231:
hw much did you get your ticket to Australia and which airline? Please I need your help, need a ticket for July 1st week.

Maranatha5:

Use Qatar airways. Com or wakanow to check prices

Cuthbertola:
Please anyone know how i can get a Tax clearance document?. Very urgent please

denzel231:
u will get it by God grace

denzel231:
As a dependent,
can someone work full time in Australia?
Can someone also school?
Can someone get PR?

Just asking . Thank you .

Softkey:
As a dependant of a student visa holder, by law the conditions applies:

8104
Visa holder cannot work more than 40 hours per fortnight and cannot start work until the primary student visa holder has started their course.

Family members of the following students can work unlimited hours once the primary student visa holder has started their course:

students studying a master’s by coursework or research degree
students studying a doctorate degree

8201
Adult visa holders (18 years or above) are subject to this condition. This means that while in Australia they cannot study for more than three months.

denzel231:
thanks for the response..my wife is already doing her course in Australia. She has been in Australia for about a year + or 2years now. She got to Australia with a visa for masters in global bla bla which was not a good course and also not a PR course, she had to switch to Torrens university this year to study bsch in community service. Her initial visa expired in March this year and she was given a bridging visa but she applied for a new visa while in Australia with my name as dependent, God so kind they approved the visas for both of us..

For the first conditions, this means I can work unlimitedly right when I go and meet her?

For the 2nd condition, it means I can't school using dependent?

Softkey:
The conditions are very plain.
1. Legally, you can only work 40hrs fortnightly (2 weeks). The rule was relaxed to allow unlimited number of work hrs because of Covid though but it’s set to be reverted back to normal by July this year.

2. It means you can’t study for more than 3 months.

denzel231:


Thanks brother for the response. What can someone even study in 3 months ?

Lastly can I also get a PR if my wife gets one?

What's the criteria of getting a PR?

Softkey:
What you can study is a personalised question. A little research online will do justice to that.

If your wife includes you in her PR application then you get it if granted.

You might want to check the PR thread for PR criteria related questions.

Good Day House

Using this opportunity to appreciate all those who have been supplying quality information on this platform. God bless you.

Please, I noticed most Nigeria Agents keep advising me to go for UK or others, when I tell them I'm 40yrs.
Is it that Australia don't grant 40s visa or what? I am going for MBA. Kindly advise with pls

Please I want to ask this questions:
Firstly, I applied for masters by coursework and got 20% scholarship with accommodation scholarship too, but my agent said he wants to reapply for me in same school for masters in research that it always comes with a better scholarship sometimes full scholarship or so, pls how true is this cos i will pay for another application fee.

Secondly, please I’m asked to write for PTE, I haven’t heard of this before, and I don’t understand why Australia school didn’t ask for English proficiency but their embassy is asking for one. Is there a way out of this? I even did undergraduate studies in UK school.

Jubal21:
Greetings guys! Please I need a quick response on this. I just got an email from the home affairs saying my application is invalid. (because my residential address wasn't detailed) also they are refunding my application fee back to me. Has anyone being in or know anything aabout this. My course starts in August. Your timely response will be appreciated.

denzel231:
How do someone get Medicare card or private health care card?

Softkey:
You can’t get Medicare card on a student visa. You need to go for Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC). There are lots of providers for that if you check online.

denzel231:
thanks so much but which is the cheapest OSHC, I saw alianz and it's a bit expensive. Any suggestions please? Thanks for all you do...

Lastly, can you list the countries where transit someone can transit when traveling to Australia?

I remembered vividly in 2020, Qatar airways said she can't transit in Hong Kong or thereabouts because they don't accept Nigeria COVID cards and for that reason, she bought another ticket entirely. I don't know if that still in existence. I will appreciate your assistance here because I am planning to go 2nd week of next month or month end. I am just looking for an affordable ticket

Softkey:
A Google search of “cheap OSHC” will give you multiple options to compare. Allianz, Medibank, Bupa etc. Read up and compare.

Check transit with the airline you’re booking bro. A transit visa is definitely needed when transiting via HongKong. Qatar is a good choice though. Qatar to Doha to Australia is a good one.

denzel231:
how do we get the transit visa? I am new to this ...

Nigeria to Qatar to Australia is expensive...

The cheaper one to some extent is Nigeria to Qatar to Hong Kong to Melbourne...

lomaxx:


As someone that flies Sydney - Lagos - Sydney quite frequently, I’d advise anyone to use Qatar. Just plan your trip well.

Whatever route you book, make sure you are clarified on transit requirements. To avoid stories that touch.

denzel231:
can I book it myself or I will have to use an agent?
If you don't mind, can I contact you ?

lomaxx:


It's easy to book on the website (qatarairways dot com)

denzel231:
thanks .
I will use the Lagos to doha to Melbourne.....

I hope I won't be paying for any transit stuff ?

Sorry for disturbing y'all, am new to this. Thanks 👍
