Good Morning All,

I applied for student visa, subsequent entrance (spouse) over 70 days ago and the subsequent health assessment notification has not changed since i applied, (see below)
I did my medicals before applying and added my HAP ID while filling the application form.

Am concerned this has not changed, is this normal? What else was I to do?

Required examinations not yet determined
The health examinations required for this person have not yet been determined. If health examinations are required, a link containing the details will be displayed when the person returns to this page.

According to some statistics in this thread, Grants are usually released 1st and 2nd week of every month (1st-16th) for the principal applicant. For spouse visa, as rightly mentioned, I have a friend that applied for his spouse since November 21st 2017. They are yet to release her grant, the delay could also be attributed to the recent surge in Student visa application. It will come by the grace of God. Keep hope alive

Blazegab:
Is there a selected Date for releasing grants. I am waiting I have submitted the requested updates. Coe and employment letter.

Please for those applied for their spouse to join them and it was successful how long did it take and any advise on way to go about it.
Thanks to all the contributors you wont miss your own grant.

It seems you included H to the HAP ID while filling the form. It is supposed to be about 8 digits without H eg 150*****. Confirm that you used the correct HAP ID with the link below

I just arrived in sydney and I came in with good amount of Nigerian foods like ogbono, egusi, crayfish, dried pepper , maggi chicken and other stuffs . But I made sure everything was blended to powder form , avoid coming in with seeds, and fresh foods like fish and any other thing that is fresh cos they will be rejected.i even came in with some drugs for cold , catarrh and pain reliefs. everything passed through without any hassle.

Can you list them in details pls m about getting my things together for Melbourne and want to know how to pack. Thanks

Please Gurus in the house. I need your input.

A family friend that resides in Australia came back with an Aussie lady (not his wife, just a friend and in her late 60's) The lady became very fond of my elder sister (because she's the one cooking and taking care of them) and has promised to help her migrate to Australia. The lady said if my sister decides to pursue a degree whether undergraduate or post graduate she will solely sponsor her (My sister is a University graduate, Food Science and Technology.) But the problem is the Aussie lady doesn't know anything about sponsoring a visa for an immigrant or anything immigration neither does my sister. Please how can my sister go about this?

What's your profile and what do you want to know?
I also encourage you to read up the thread, information is power!..

good morning, I'm a registered nurse. have gone through the thread though. just want to ask you bro.
Considering that courses with below 2 years duration may not guarantee someone permanent residence
So how about Nurse Training Australia?
Most courses there... Aged care and community service for instance isn't up-to a year duration..it ranges from 36 to 60 weeks.
How's possibility of such above mentioned courses guaranteing someone a visa and Permanent residence?
I'm in late 20 and practicing for 4years now

thanks

Good morning dear!..
I believe you graduated from school of nursing and so you have diploma in nursing (RN).
Is all good.

My advice and which is not final:
- Go for Bachelor degree in nursing, this will help improve your academic and career progression in this noble profession. You might decide to pursue MSC later on in your life because you must have already gotten the Bachelor degree.

The Bachelor degree earns you 2 years post graduate work permit. This helps you to buy time in other to pursue your PR mission and of course you will get it.

After your Bachelor degree in nursing, you can decide to specialize in any of the following speciality in nursing....

midwife

With your age, in the late 20's, Bachelor degree in nursing will be your right point of call. Going for certificate program will be very difficult to convinced the Case officer, because of your age and you already had a diploma in nursing. But that does not mean is not possible, it is, but difficult.

If you choose to pursue the certificate course and you were lucky to gain visa grant, after the program you are only entitled to apply for Graduate work permit but not post graduate work permit irrespective of your course as far as the Australian qualification frame work is concern, AQF.

Synopsis of Graduate work permit!...
link-https://www.homeaffairs.gov.au/visas/supporting/Pages/485/requirements-graduate-work-stream.aspx

Graduate Work Stream requirements

For international students with an eligible qualification who graduate with skills and qualifications that relate to an occupation on the list of eligible skilled occupations. A visa in this stream is granted for 18 months from the date of grant.

Requirements for this visa include:
you nominate an occupation on the Medium and Long-term Strategic Skills List (MLTSSL).
your visa application included evidence that you had applied for a skills assessment for your nominated skilled occupation by a relevant assessing authority
your skills have been assessed by a relevant assessing authority as suitable for your nominated skilled occupation ('suitable skills assessment')
you have met the Australian study requirement in the past six months
each degree, diploma or trade qualification used to meet the Australian study requirement is closely related to your nominated skilled occupation.
You must nominate an occupation on the Medium and Long-term Strategic Skills List (MLTSSL). You can nominate only one occupation and you cannot change that occupation after you apply

Eligible qualifications
For the purposes of applying for a subclass 485 under the Graduate Work stream, the course/courses must have resulted in a degree, diploma or trade qualification. For example, a student may complete two consecutive Diploma level courses and satisfy the Australian study requirement under the Graduate Work stream, provided the other components of the requirement are satisfied.
Qualifications must be closely related to nominated occupation

The qualification(s) completed must be closely related to the student's nominated skilled occupation. For your qualification to be considered to be closely related to your nominated occupation, the skills underpinning the qualification must be directly transferable to that occupation. This applies to both the subject matter and the level of the qualification. For example, if you nominate 'physiotherapist' as your occupation, a degree in physiotherapy would meet this requirement, but a degree in commerce would not.

Example: Acceptable combinations of study and nominated occupations include:
an applicant who nominates 'Physiotherapist' as their skilled occupation and completes a degree in physiotherapy in Australia
an applicant who nominates 'Air-conditioning and Mechanical Services Plumber' as their skilled occupation who has completed a Certificate III in Plumbing and a Diploma of Plumbing and Services in Australia

Example: A combination of study and nominated occupation that would not be acceptable:
An applicant's nominated occupation is Registered Nurse but they satisfied the Australian study requirement on the basis of having completed a Bachelor of Commerce.
Skills assessment

It is your responsibility to arrange for the skills assessment. Contact the relevant assessing authority well before you apply for this visa, because each assessing authority has its own assessment procedures, timeframes and charges.
Contact details for Assessing Authorities are listed on the department's website.
You must apply to the relevant assessing authority to obtain a suitable skills assessment prior to lodging your application

If your nominated occupation is 'medical practitioner', evidence of your full medical registration is accepted as evidence of a skills assessment. Further information can be found on migration of medical practitioners under the general skilled migration program

If your nominated occupation is a Nurse, you must obtain a skills assessment from the Australian Nursing and Midwifery Accreditation Council (ANMAC) even if currently registered to work as a nurse in an Australian state or territory

A skills assessment is only valid until the expiry date specified on the assessment, or for a period of three years from the assessment's date of issue.

N/B: Post graduate work permit is different from Permanent residence.
Courses with 2 years duration of study guarantees you 2 years post graduate work permit and not permanent residence. Some person starts early enough to pursue their PR mission and with the 2 years post graduate work permit, it helps buys time for you to pursue that.

The age care was added to certificate program as a course, before people can do that in days or few weeks to get the cert but now, it is a program on it own where you pay tuition fee for that.

As a nurse to get permanent residence is not really a big issue like that compare to some other courses.....
I have already highlighted specialities you can specialize as a nurse and obtain your PR having met the requirement of your governing body(The Australian Nursing and Midwifery Accreditation Council (ANMAC) and as well pass the English proficient test.

If you have any other question drop it, I will be willing to answer you to the best of my knowledge and other gurus in the house will do the same for you.
