Hello guys, I am sorry for dropping this here but just kinda confused. My student visa was denied in January but no good news from the school as regards refund of fee, no update from the school till now. The school is ignoring my mails, website is down, relocated and not picking calls. Please advise on any step I can take to recover my fund. Please I need ur advise guys

Huh what's the name of the school

@skydude, I applied since dec 11 and was asked to add my birth certificate on 15th and my status is showing “further assessment ”. I’m supposed to go for honeymoon with my hubby who is already an Australian citizen on March 10. But he had to travel back alone and I had to postpone my work leave again to this April. I pray they get to dec people. I heard because of this commonwealth games applications tripled and so much backlogs.

Ps: Mine is tourist visa too so my advice is for you to forget Australia and travel to America.

It means your medicals need further assessment by the MOI doctors to decide your case, and don’t be too quick to conclude things when your not sure, Australia is a no nonsense country and her immigration dept is the toughest ever in the world, so always ask for clarity if you don’t understand your application status ma.

Gunpoint : please help a brother, I am lost. Please advice me. Just wanted someone to fill me in on life there, I am job tied here. I need a fresh start.

Advice a brother.

Age is a barrier and also not a barrier when you apply for visa to come here, now why did I say so? I’ll trll you two things:
1. Age is a barrier because you’ve spent a large amount of years since you finished undergrad studies I believe
2. Goodnews is, if you can find a better reason to show that you used those gaps between your undergard and now to do something useful then you stand a very good chance to be granted a visa, it could be work experience, more studies etc just be sure to write a good SOP and have concrete evidence to back it up. What the CO doesn’t wanna see is that you were not doing anything all those years. Hope it helps
NB: Always get your facts right and not hear says, I saw you say something about racism here in Aussie, well I’m sorry to say that you are very wrong!!! This is the best place to be and you get this like jobs even way ahead of the locals here, so long as you are best qualified and it is a crime to abuse one racially here as you can go to jail for that! So where is the racist chants coming from?

soopamom:

He is right. Racism is through the roof in Australia. It doesn't mean he shouldn't or can't come if he wants to. But Australia does not have a culture of acceptance especially for black people.

Just as your name, you are SuperWrong!!!! One of the motto of Aussie is multiculturalism hence the diversity of people here, even the locals are few Buh the foreign imports are massive! So where is the racist chants coming from Abuse one racially here and see if your not going to court or paying a law suit that you will pay for the rest of your life. Hear say is hear say, hope it makes sense

Gent009:
Your school price is affordable. Please whats the name of your school

Of course I do understand my status as I have done extensive research on that and found out that am in almost the last stage and my visa journey can be finalized any time soon so I think you are the one not really getting it right.
Besides I wasn’t asked to do medicals as mine is a short term visa.

Good Afternoon Guys,

Please who has used a relations (uncle) SOA to get a Visa? my uncle is my sponsor and I also have a few millions in my account.

It depends on your length of stay, if it’s more than 3 months then be sure you will be asked to go for medicals and your hubby being a citizen already doesn’t guarantee you visa trust me this immigration would make you go through every process.... all the best!. Buh believe me when I say Australia is miles better than the US

To be quite honest you have probably already stuffed up. You are required to be totally honest in you application and you were supposed to have listed all your educational attainments. You listed OND as you highest quals so turning around to now list a Bsc will probably raise a red flag.
Be that as it may, to answer your question, your background sound well/best suited for an Msc in social work. So try for that and see how it goes

Gent009:

want to go for Information Technology. if thats not solid in term of getting PR and a job what other course do you advise. From a social science background social work is my most related course though. But i have the passion for IT

Mate leave passion and chase what will get you what you need. You already know you should probably go for social work but you want to test fate?

Risqahola199324:
i want to ask this question on behalf of my brother, he has been in Adelaide for the past two months without securing any job, don't know may b anyone can be of help. thanks in anticipation

I don't live there and i am not sure i get PMs but pm me and let me see if i can send him to some people i know

Hi All, Please advise
BSc Chemistry want to do a Master reated to my first degree.
I have these options whihc do you think will have beter chances with regards to visa

Master of Science (Environment and Sustainability)- UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHERN QUEENS LAND
Master of Science -GRIFFITH UNIVERSITY (Has Dissertation/project,The dissertation involves applied research on a specific project, a
seminar and thesis describing the research in detail in any of these fields ; The Biotechnology
major ,The Clinical and Molecular Microbiology major,The Food Security major ,The Medicinal
Chemistry major ,The Materials Science major)

Lastly do you think Masters in environmental related programes like the one above is relatd to BSc Chemistry?

Did you consult the SOL?
Do you want PR or you want to to change the world?
I have no visibility of these courses, will just advise you to do your research thoroughly.
For someone with a Bsc in Chemistry, i would advise a PGD in education, then a masters in anything u like. The catch is u can get PR with a PGD education, after that u can do space chemistry if you like. But get your PR 1st then follow your passion

deratus:
Good day guys. Hope we all are having a great day.just breath God is fully in control.Aussie is just a country on earth.God controls the universe.it is well with us.
Meanwhile how long does it take Charles darwin university to process admission? I just applied for an msc program in environmental management.i currently hold a bsc in environmental technology.Hope this course is relevant enough to land me a mega job��� in aussie during or after studies and hope its good for pr purposes too

You do not know the realities of living abroad yet
Someone like you won't want to do aged care so oh
Mate that course left SOL like 24months ago. To cut it short, its the sort of course you finish, do post study for two years and go back home. And believe me when i say they are not kidding in Australia about you going back home

bornlegend:


It is currently not viable for PR as it is not included in Skill lists.

Please tell am oh

Trippeji:
hi. can anyone assist me with cheap nursing school for master degree please.

Edith Cowan Uni. Probably the cheapest there is. Its still over 65k for an Msc tho

Hi everyone. If you are coming here solely to chase residency and you have a core science background (meaning you studied Maths, Physics, Chemistry, IT, Engineering, Biology etc) and you wana go by the study route (that is using school here to get PR), a cheap and tested option is to come and do the PGD in teaching (not education oh, TEACHING).
Its relatively cheap, its only 12 mnts and it will get you PR. Ofcos you have to apply for another course at the end of this PGD while you PR is loading but you can then do any course your heart truly desires, knowing fully well your PR is in the pipeline. And the beauty about it is you can work as a teacher and earn good money while studying that course you originally wanted to study.
Please reconfirm which of the levels is on the SOL again as there is preschool teacher, primary school teacher and secondary school teacher and i believe at this time they are still all on the list. For now SECONDARY SCHOOL TEACHER is best, however, always check before you apply.
Another benefit of using a 12month course to chase PR is you can be done before immigration rules change again. And did i mention its relatively cheap and teachers earn good money? Yes I did

[Thanks for your input.
I checked SOL list first.my priority for now is pr before passion.
O. The sol list there is
Chemist
Chemist Technician
Laboratory
Environmentalist
Environmental science etc
Now as per your advise to do PGD in Education,Will it fly?won't they ask why not masters in chemistry?
Secondly can bsc chemistry do a direct masters in education?

Also the proposed PDF is it in education or teaching?

I am sure i have said teaching like 599 times and not education, if you apply for a PGD in education you are on your own.
Again spin some cock&bull story in your SOP, about how you were a teacher in NYSC, about how you were a lesson teacher in uni, about how you have a passion for fixing the future of Nigeria by catching kids young before they lose their way. Its just story telling
Again when ever you see a skill on SOL, google its ANZSCO code (its the set of numbers beside the skill) and make sure you masters will give you those skills. Chemist doesn't necessarily equate to studying chemistry oh.
Finally, different assessment bodies have different levels of difficulty, if you course will fall under vetassess or Australian Institute of Management, please avoid that course, especially AIM, you will need like 7years of post study experience to pass it oh

what do you think about MPH for PR in aussie.

chimax1:

Answered many times, MPH will take you back home to Nigeria, unless your undergrad was Bsc Nursing or MBBS

Hello house, I am have been a silent reader. I got admission to study masters in management for engineers. I did mechanical as my undergraduate degree and have been working since afterwards. I want to know if my choice for masters has a logical progression with my undergraduate course , more so I have been handling project supervisory roles in my current work place.

What's your advice on dual sponsorship? I intend using my elder brother and cousin as sponsor as my brother has a little less than 10million while my cousin has above 13million. Kindly advice me and tell me if I'm on course as I wouldn't want to make any silly mistakes when I have opportunity to get ideas from brilliant minds here.

You have Bsc Mech, apply for PR directly.
All these 10s of millions you are mentioning, with maybe 2m, you will have PR and be done with it.
Engineering mgt will not get you a job here mate, don't do it.
Its for people who studied engineering here, have established engineering careers here and are just seeking an uplift.

Is it not possible to change course when one comes over and maybe understand the system better?
