So far you are not leaving the transit area and you are not rechecking your bags

As the name implies, Short term Skilled" simply means that the occupation is listed under short term which can be removed or moved out from the list anytime.

For example, some one might see an occupation listed under short term skilled prior to his/her program and after you must have finish your program or before your program runs out such occupation might be removed before you conclude your program thereby putting your PR pursuit in limbo as regard to your intended program to achieve your PR.

Most times is advice to look for occupations listed under medium and long term skilled occupation. It simple means that these occupation will take a longer time to be remove, because of the demand of such occupation.

Good to hear heaps of people are getting their grants. I was quite active around this time last year. I remember our grant arrived on the 17 of january last year and arrive Oz 14th Fed.

However, that is not why i am writing. I read some posts about using panadol, and men crying due to how hard they work here.

So quickly want to advice on managing your expectations.

You have 2 options upon arrival, namely; working hard or working smart.

Working hard is when you have no tickets nor certification and you want to work. You will most likely get hard work. Bearing in mind that every employment will request your visa b4 offering you any job, secondly, because of studies you might be unable to work normal hours, so that leaves you with shift jobs to survive. 6am - 2pm shift, 4pm - midnight, 10pm to sunrise and so on.

However, it becomes easier to get good paying jobs, bordering around $30 to 40 an hour if you obtain a forklift license(cost 400AUD) or HR or MR truck lincence( 1000plus AUD), Australia is a logistics country, anything logistics and warehouse sells. We import almost everything, so they have to be stored, moved and distributed. Anywhere along that supply chain has good money and constant work.

Disability certificate(1200AUD duration one month), try and obtain a disability certificate as soon as you arrive, being a welfare based country, millions of people living with disability has to be catered for by law.
You can earn btw 27 to 30 on weekdays, double that on weekends and maybe night shifts. It is the easiest job, so far you can stand the sight of cerebral palsy girl, or a boy with fown sydrome. Ofcourse, the job will include some manual handling.
Catch is that you most likely will need an Australian drivers license to get into the door. In some cases the license alone gets you in, even without the cert course.

Or get and RIW ticket, work railway and get paid 50/hr.

Now, your question is, what do i do in the interim, well, go get a job at nandos, macca's or any fastfood while you work on obtaining any of those. If you are going to sydney, apply to UNrefugees as face2face fundraisers, they always look for new comers, cos old timers will do the job. Atleast you will fetch upkeep and rent till you are able to sort yourself.

What am trying to pass across is simple, no relocation is easy, even if it is from Lagos to Kano, or from dopemu to shagamu it is always tedious in the begining.

Plan ahead, research, stay positive, avoid fines

How soon can I get an Australian driver's license after entry.

Solitin40:

bro, i am supposed to recheck bags o
according to the ticket

Teegal42:

It will take you 2 to 3years to get full Australian driver's license as a beginner and at least a year if you want to get it with your original Nigerian license after verification and some other process however you can be driving with your Nigerian license, that is what i have been using for more than 6months but certain jobs require Australian driving license.

Donnal:
U can get theirs over there. Please wanna ask if your sponsor was contacted abd also ur undergraduate school?

How soon can it be?

What if I don't have a Nigeria licence?

bligs:

The four years gap shouldn't be an issue, that is why statement of purpose is there to explain your situation. Changing of course upon arriving is very hard, so there is high tendency of forfeiting your first semester fee if you wish to change course which is different from your initial course in the subsequent semester because by so doing you won't be able to apply for credit transfer and you may have to apply for visa extension later in the future.

What if u apply for it before lectures start.

Teegal42:

Then you can't drive and if caught while driving without a license heavy fine and you may face a magistrate court.

Teegal42:

There is no two ways about it, you apply for license and will be put through some test both driving and computer base, if you scale through a learners permit will be issue to you for a year with 12points, if you don't exhaust your points through penalties for the first years, your license will be upgraded for the second year and you get your full license in the third year.

ireayomide2015:

Sure, even lesser but it may not come with roadworthy certificate and registration.

Wow.. Thanks! But what's the implication of that over there?

If you are caught driving a car without registration, the fine is AUD700+ likewise the cost of registration is within that range, the cost of roadworthy certificate depends on the condition of the car, you get the certificate from any certified mechanical just to make sure that your car is fit for the road.

Solitin40:

If your Agent is PFL first thing to do is call the Head office in Lagos trust me the staff will regret his or her actions and make sure you tell them that they will have to bear the consequences if anything funny happens to your application

PFL is a useless agency I swear...I paid 100k and they couldn't get me an admission... people re so wicked,, can you imagine playing with someone's future...God will judge them, I'm waiting for the right time to act... I pray for all expectants in the house,,God's speed

bligs:

You Cannot get a good car for 1500.

We are student and it is important you minimise all expenses and cost. Trust me you don't want to buy a car and start repairing all the time with all your weekly wage. You will cry tears won't come out, unless you have back up from naija sha.

Cars that comes with road worthy that will give you peace of mind are more expensive.

Budget like 2500 to be safe

Pfl and goago are nightmares i honestly swear

They charge exorbitant fees

Yet the are full of shìt

They are not supervised or sanctioned
While an insider said they have not been paid for i5months
Am using pfl now!
Lagos branch is ok!
Stay clear from other branch

Use BCIE cheaper and more committed

It just that this people has made deals with schools you can't apply unless via them if not why will i go to an agent!


I noticed that people who apply themselves get visas morethan people that you agents

Bro the waiting pass court adjournment o.... E tire me sef. But still hopeful. When are you due to resume? Today makes my application 85days, had to defer till May.

Hi, I strongly recommend that you give them a call especially when resumption is fast approaching. My little brother did apply on the 1st of Dec and when I realised his resumption date was pretty close, I rang the Pretoria office precisely on the 1st of Feb, thou it took about 50mins for the call to be answer but thank God they eventually did.
The lady I spoke to requested for details which I provided! She politely apologized and said "we are behind on applications" and of cos my response was, no worries! She went further to assure me she would forward his application for immediate review and revert ASAP.

To my greatest surprise, immigration contacted the same day and requested that school confirms a resumption extension. I hurriedly went to the school cos I am actually in Australia, afterwards, Visa was issued the next day.

As I type, my lil bro is on his way from Perth to Sydney.

Hence, I recommend this option but note: application must have exceeded the stated processing time and seen online.

Best of luck to all applicants. The phone number I rang is: +27 12 423 6060

Thanks bro, but since I have deferred till May, I think it would be nice enough to give them this month to decide. Hopefully before month end I’d get a positive response. Thanks for your concern bro�... By the way, do you have any info on Queensland? Please share if you do.
