Hello all, today is my birthday. Sounds like something to be cheerful about. Right? Unfortunately, today doesn't seem to be starting with cheer as my dream to visit, study or probably live in Australia is presently appearing as a mirage.

I discovered this thread few months ago only after I had engaged the service of a visa agent who claimed to be an expert. He applied for a Business visitor's class on my behalf using some information that is not true about me. I discovered this just yesterday after receiving the details for assessing my Immi account from him and of course, you can tell that my application was refused.

I'm not even concerned about the refusal now but whether it is possible to correct the misleading information already registered with DIBP without any eyebrow raised when making same or other visa category applications. In short, what can I do?

Please your candid advice is needed at this point.
Cheers.

Cc: WestAfrican, Bellong et al

Assessment
I have considered the information provided on your visa application form. You have declared that you are a 31 year old engaged male Nigerian national who wishes to travel to Australia to attend vForum on 09 and 10/11/2016. You state that you are employed at Isolo lcda since 01/03/2010.

You have not travelled to Australia nor have you provided acceptable evidence of travel to countries comparable to Australia. You have provided no acceptable documentation to support your claims of travel to Australia temporarily for business purposes. You have provided no evidence of funds to support your proposed stay in Australia or evidence of credentials or employment, invitation etc. or have you demonstrated strong enough incentive to return to your home country. I therefore have strong concerns regarding the genuineness of your claimed intention to visit Australia temporarily for business reasons or that you will abide by the visa conditions.

On balance I find that you do not meet subclause 600.211.

NB: I gave the so called agent copies of my child's birth certificate, expired UK student and schengen visitors' visa but according to records, he didn't upload them. He also said I'm engaged instead of married while he still went ahead and upload my marriage certificate.

Praise be to Allah whom all people praise in different languages. He is the Most Bounteous and the Most Beneficent. I praise and thank Him in order to receive His pleasing Gifts. Allah please also bless Nairaland and all its members. Ameen.

I got a call from SA at about 11:17 which I'd call an interview and behold 30mins later I got my grant.

Want to tank evry1 here for support, wishing those expecting good luck and praying for those expecting to get theirs in due time.

Timeline:

Applied to Australia for Further Education on 2nd Of Aug got admitted 9th of Aug

Applied for a 2yrs course: Diploma in Leadership and Management.

Paid tuition fee in Oct got CEO same Month.

Applied for Visa and went for Biometrics on 28th of Oct.

Did medical 1st of Nov.

Grant came today 22nd Dec.

After many sleepless nights.

Thank God all the same.

What a way to start the Xmas N New Year celebration.

WestAfrican:


Thanks WestAfrican. Does this mean I have to fill the right information this time? Would that not be another reason for denial or raise suspiscion assuming it's the same body/same case officer who gets to assess my application?


Hence, you will need to first tell the truth that you have been denied a visa and give them the reason(s) for denial.

Secondly, you must support your student application with enough evidence or supporting documents.

Lastly you must do it yourself and pray to God.


All the best.

BADNEAT:
congratulations , nice way to end the year...didn't know they still call..eye opener to pending and prospective applicants..you can share the questions you were asked to help others who may not be too good at thinking fast

teahigh:


Thanks Bro.

Yeah yu ryt....a rily nice way to end the year.

It was a lady that called. I was asked who my sponsor was, the kind of job he is into, which I told them.

They also asked who funded me when I was skuling here in 9ja, told her it was my parents who sponsored me. Then she asked how come my parents aren't the ones sponsoring my tuition abroad. Told her they don't have the funds dats why my broda is stepping in. She also asked if I still have any siblings in skul here in 9ja, told her I have 2, which my parents take care of, while my broda is to take care of mine. Then she asked the kinda jobs my parents are into, told her. (Pman na Mechanic, Malle Dey sell Drinks).

For some it might be diff questions....like why are you coming to study in Australia and what you intend to do after studying and stuffs like that.
