surveyor1: So how does one get round a naive immigration officer, if one happens to meet one? Or are those involved in checking visa entitlements very aware of this? Why not the airport? |
Re: General Australian Visa Enquiries by Nobody: 4:23pm On Jan 29, 2015 |
ukchy: Except you have a return ticket, a residence visa or citizenship, they won't sell to you on a one-way ticket. Will try another branch. |
Re: General Australian Visa Enquiries by Nobody: 7:14pm On Jan 29, 2015 |
And what's with all those soldiers at the airport...? |
Re: General Australian Visa Enquiries by mrnilobrawn: 7:32pm On Jan 29, 2015 |
bossladyMo:Lol....they are always there. |
Re: General Australian Visa Enquiries by Nobody: 7:38pm On Jan 29, 2015 |
mrnilobrawn: They were VERY helpful though. Hubby drove right towards them...we didn't know the car park was no more at the spot it used to be....now I understand why people have been complaining. It was one of them that entered the car and took us to the ports health office gangan...infact, we parked right next to the entrance gate as he told his other men to allow us...........and to say we didn't know any one of them from Adam! |
Re: General Australian Visa Enquiries by mrnilobrawn: 8:06pm On Jan 29, 2015 |
bossladyMo:Nice one. As at monday, port health was on strike. |
Re: General Australian Visa Enquiries by Nobody: 8:17pm On Jan 29, 2015 |
mrnilobrawn: Oh really? Didn't know that... |
Re: General Australian Visa Enquiries by prechear(m): 8:34pm On Jan 29, 2015 |
bossladyMo: Visa label is NOT needed. Just print ur visa grant notification sent to u via email and u will be fine |
Re: General Australian Visa Enquiries by Nobody: 8:49pm On Jan 29, 2015 |
prechear: Bros how far with the ATM charges? What was the last exchange rate, and GTB's commission? |

FutureDon:Quite helpful.Thanks. I'll intensify my search. Frankly, developed countries (from experience) are now creating more alternative financial interventions to their research students without necessarily depending on scholarships. Reason they live modest lives in the course of their study. I see Australia moving toward that direction soon. |

bossladyMo:Without egunje? I will be more than shocked |
Re: General Australian Visa Enquiries by Nobody: 11:13pm On Jan 29, 2015 |
BKings: I swear down! Notin notin..........maybe cos they saw 2 kids in the car sha.....or maybe God just didn't want the kids stressed from walking in the sun.....lol |

@Bossladymo, pls do I need PTA, as my ticket is an e-ticket? And hope I will be able to withdraw with diamond Visa card in Australia? Cos am kinda scared so as not to be stucked or stranded over there. |
Re: General Australian Visa Enquiries by FutureDon(m): 11:25pm On Jan 29, 2015 |
bossladyMo : Yes, I'm confident that there won't be any issue concerning a visa label. Just the print out would do. I used my Naija atm card (Zenith) yesterday - the exchange rate was 155.5 Naira to 1 AUD. |
Re: General Australian Visa Enquiries by FutureDon(m): 11:30pm On Jan 29, 2015 |
rolabettin: Let me answer for bossladymo, you do not compulsorily need a PTA if you can afford to buy from the a b o k i s (aka blackmarket) as getting it from the bank (at official rates) can sometimes be a pain in the neck. Your diamond bank card should work, if you are scared about it, I would suggest you activate your internet banking before leaving Naija. By so doing, you would be able to transfer to someone here with a functional atm card. |

tonybunor: Bringing foodstuffs into OZ is as easy as ABC if you follow the guidelines of my boss tonybunor. |
Re: General Australian Visa Enquiries by Nobody: 11:38pm On Jan 29, 2015 |
rolabettin: I can't say for diamond, cos it didn't work when I was applying for QLD sponsorship...GTB Mastercard did. |
Re: General Australian Visa Enquiries by Nobody: 11:40pm On Jan 29, 2015 |
FutureDon: Were there additional charges? Do you know if it's the same exchange rate across all banks? |
Re: General Australian Visa Enquiries by deaero: 12:04am On Jan 30, 2015 |
Please can someone send photo copies to the embassy?like photocopied WAEC transcript ? And what are the necessary mistakes to avoid wen applying to DIAC? Please someone answer? |
Re: General Australian Visa Enquiries by FutureDon(m): 12:11am On Jan 30, 2015 |
bossladyMo: There is usually a flat 1500Naira for international ATM withdrawals and 3AUD charged by the OZ bank whose ATM machine I used. From my experience living elsewhere, I think there are slight differences in the exchange rate across banks. For instance, GTB has been rumored to have slightly higher rates. |
Re: General Australian Visa Enquiries by FutureDon(m): 12:12am On Jan 30, 2015 |
deaero: Photocopies should be legally certified as |
Re: General Australian Visa Enquiries by equlibrium(m): 1:00am On Jan 30, 2015 |
bossladyMo:when are you travelling? Na God I take beg you, no use GTB oh! Those guys are not smiling. If you have a diamond bank acct, you will get lower rates and better card fees. |
Re: General Australian Visa Enquiries by equlibrium(m): 1:03am On Jan 30, 2015 |
bossladyMo: that isn't even the problem, CBN rules say PTA can only be sold to someone who has a return ticket(I assume you have just one way bah) Just buy minimal usd, Thats what I'm doing |
Re: General Australian Visa Enquiries by Nobody: 1:06am On Jan 30, 2015 |
equlibrium: The lady said holders of a residence visa or citizenship can also purchase |
Re: General Australian Visa Enquiries by Nobody: 1:09am On Jan 30, 2015 |
equlibrium: Oh really...cos diamond told me they charge 2.5% commission fees....and I was even thinking that was expensive. |
Re: General Australian Visa Enquiries by prechear(m): 1:11am On Jan 30, 2015 |
bossladyMo: I didn't use my GTB a/c. I just withdrew almost all my money in my account bought USD and carry come here. I no want STORY for d gods. 2 Likes |
Re: General Australian Visa Enquiries by equlibrium(m): 1:11am On Jan 30, 2015 |
FutureDon:Rumored? Rumored!!! That darn bank will cut your head with machete! Bossladymo, have your internet banking active on all your accounts so you can transfer to any bank's card with ease but know this, a Visa card will incur less charges than a master card and Diamond/Zenith charges are more reasonable than GTB. So when you add Diamond's good rates and the fact they favour Visa cards vrs GTB rates and the fact the favour Master cards, the disparity in rates become more pronounced. |
Re: General Australian Visa Enquiries by equlibrium(m): 1:13am On Jan 30, 2015 |
bossladyMo:still cheaper than GTB dear |
Re: General Australian Visa Enquiries by equlibrium(m): 1:14am On Jan 30, 2015 |
bossladyMo:I meant in the context of our "situation" |
Re: General Australian Visa Enquiries by ukchy: 8:22am On Jan 30, 2015 |
If your bank can,is better you buy from them cos d rate is cheaper.It has nothing to do with your ticket .Just d money you will hold for pocket when travelling..As for Diamond bank,I don't use them to do anything online payment or to buy anything online cos their visa card is always given error report. GTB Master card is one touch,fast and does everything and d rate is good.PLEASE instead of VISA card,go get MASTER card cos it does wonder outside d country and is reliable rolabettin: |
