Insanity:With 6 years experience, you are better off applying for 190 or 491 than student visa. Also note that 189 is not the only skilled visa #myopinion |
Re: General Australian Student Visa Enquiries Part 3 by Insanity(m): 5:06pm On Mar 08, 2020 |
tunlex01: Thanks a lot for your advice. I am considering that option too, started the CDR for my skills assessment. But, based on my profile, do I have a chance for student visa application? |
Re: General Australian Student Visa Enquiries Part 3 by NB1912: 12:58am On Mar 09, 2020 |
Insanity: tunlex01: Mate, 190 has become as difficult as 189 in recent times especially for those applying from overseas. Most states now require applicants to either be working and residing in the state or have a job offer before you can get sponsored. The government is trying to force new migrants to regional area (491). Looking at his occupatuon civil engineering (Anzco 233211), he is only eligible for VIC for 190 and VIC hardly sponsor applicants without a job offer. So in a nutshell, you need to be living and working in Australia to have a chance. As for 491 he might be eligible. As of now, the only states he can apply to are NSW, NT and ACT as other states require a job offer. Note that sponsorship for NSW is competitive as priority will be given to applicants already working in the state. NT hardly sponsor those living overseas unless you can show exceptional reasons how you would contribute to their economy. I my opinion, NSW will be his best bet, but as there are lots of civil engineers already working in the state and unable to secure 190 invite, they will all rush to 491 which makes it even more competitive. To stand a chance, he needs a very high point and getting 8 each in all bands in either IELTS or PTE will be the deciding factor. |
Re: General Australian Student Visa Enquiries Part 3 by tunlex01(m): 8:53am On Mar 09, 2020 |
NB1912: Valid points you have raised. At least, his occupations still have about 4-5 likelihood of nomination which most occupations don't even have at the moment. VIC still sponsors 190 offshore, only its 491 that requires job offer. NSW has two streams for 491 nomination (onshore and offshore) and the requirements are clearly spelt out. If he has a superior English score, then he should have an edge and be able to apply to NSW, TAS, ACT and NT. He can also go for Civil Engineering Draftsperson (CED) ---that occupation is less competitive than CE. |

jide4lagos:congratulations......same resumption date |
Re: General Australian Student Visa Enquiries Part 3 by SISTERjSISTER: 10:34am On Mar 09, 2020 |
tpain22: The hurdles weren't only at the airport(Nigerian) but throughout the application process. About the coronavirus all passengers were given health forms to fill, so it wasn't much of an issue. Yellow card not certificate( for yellow fever and polio) ,you must have known that by now ![]() Thank you! |
Re: General Australian Student Visa Enquiries Part 3 by NB1912: 11:58pm On Mar 09, 2020 |
tunlex01: First you mentioned Civil Engineering Draftsperson as being less competitive. Yes it used to be less competitive, but not anymore. As PR got tougher, people started assessing for both Civil Engineering and Civil Engineering Draftsperson to boost their chances, hence it made it difficult for both occupation. Yea VIC still sponsor offshore applicant for 190 but with a Civil Engineering occupation where there are so many applicants currently working in VIC and still waiting for sponsorship, hence his chances are very slim. VIC is notorious when it comes to rejection. Most sponsorships given to offshore applicants are mainly in health occupation or uncommon fields like Biotechnology etc. For occupations like Engineering and I.T, even if you receive a pre-invite from VIC, without a job offer, the chances of rejection is very high. Yes I know NSW has two streams that's why I recommended NSW 491 as his best option if he is able to get maximum points in English. He is also able to go for 190 as a draftsperson but will require a very high point like 85 or 90 (based on recent trends). You mentioned other states like TAS, ACT and NT. TAS: He needs a job offer for both 190 and 491. ACT: Have you ever had a look at the ACT Metrix to see how many points are awarded to those living or working in the state? Why do you think people are moving to ACT from other states? Invites are awarded purely based on highest points in ACT matrix and if you are offshore your chances are very slim. NT: This is one of the hardest state to secure sponsorship if you are not currently living or working in the state. They only sponsor offshore applicants for 491. He will need to provide good employability statement with advert of his job and evidence of responses from recruiters regarding his employability prospect in the state. Have you searched on job adds like [b]SEEK [/b]for civil engineering jobs in NT? You might get like 3 to 4 job adds in a month, so how will he prove his employability prospect in the state? My analysis are based on reality and what's happening in recent times. It's best to conduct a proper research before proceeding with anything. Cheers! 1 Like |

Yes. But it will be converted to USD Viola2017: |
Re: General Australian Student Visa Enquiries Part 3 by tunlex01(m): 10:25am On Mar 10, 2020 |
NB1912: I understand your analysis and not disputing it, however it's still worth trying as people are still getting invites even in these states you mentioned from Nigeria. For example, I know someone who just got ACT invite as a Production Engineer this morning with 65 points on the matrix even without visiting ACT (he only had to wait for few months to get it). I never said CED is not competitive rather, it's less competitive than CE at the moment cos not every CE is obviously aware of the CED assessment. TAS does not give 190 to offshore but CE is still available on TSOL 3A list with 5 years exp requirement and eligibility from EA which TAS had given clarification last year. NT may be the hardest but interestingly, they are still nominating applicants offshore. My advice was for him to attempt the skilled migration and keep his options open. 1 Like 1 Share |

Hi Pals, Any chance for an 491 for any state without job offer. Occupation is Food Technologist. EOI lodged @80 points for 491 65 for 190 |
Re: General Australian Student Visa Enquiries Part 3 by tpain22: 7:40am On Mar 11, 2020 |
Guy please take your PR talk somewhere else, this group is for Australian Student Visa only, By the way any Grant in the last 5days? Seems coronavirus is delaying processing times. opad: 2 Likes |
Re: General Australian Student Visa Enquiries Part 3 by opad(m): 9:58am On Mar 11, 2020 |
Quite irresponsible comment, unfortunately. Some of us are proud of how far this thread have grown over the last 9 years especially devoid of insults. ***The 'guy' is not a prospective applicant, inquiry was for an aburo, but posted on the student thread instead of the PR one (error admitted). If you can't answer any question, you can simply ignore. I wish you very well on your student visa pursuit. It'll come. Let me know if you need airport pickup any state.

Hello house, Please which Australian University accepts 2.2 for masters? Preferably without IELTS and what are my chances of getting a study visa if given admission considering my academic gap because my degree was in 2014. |
Re: General Australian Student Visa Enquiries Part 3 by NB1912: 8:08am On Mar 12, 2020 |
chidex28:There are schools that give admission without English test. Regarding your study gap, what were you doing sinc 2014? |
Re: General Australian Student Visa Enquiries Part 3 by Dereformer(m): 9:00am On Mar 12, 2020 |
NB1912: My wife had her Bsc(Accounting) 2.1 in 2008. Are you saying no school will offer her admission for Msc in Australia because of study gap? Please, I need to be educated on this. |

Re: General Australian Student Visa Enquiries Part 3 by ignis: 7:54pm On Mar 12, 2020 |
chidex28: You can get admission regardless of the study gap. But the challenge is getting a student Visa grant. The gap doesn't speak good of stong home ties. |
