Did you call DIBP Pretoria before you receive your grant ?

Hello gurus in the house, I intend applying to study in either Tafe Queensland or Griffith Varsity before the year runs out. I'm 26, heading to 27 this year. I have a daughter, and wife. My highest qualification is High school diploma. Please what are my chances of getting my study permit approved.
P.S: I've been working since 2009 till date

Solitin40:

Did you call DIBP Pretoria before you receive your grant ?

no I didn’t.

Albion05:
Amen!..thanks bro!..
The bank manager of the said branch was surprise when my dad called him to tell him. It sounds so funny but is not at all.
He will get the reference letter from the bank on Monday.
In my own case I doubt the embassy did ed the bank because if they did, they won't be saying this thing at all. Any branch they felt like ing or writing to would have replied them.
It will all end in praise.

Imagine. Endeavor to get it on Monday and so that you grant will be released b4 your start date. Click information provided after ing and also email them with attention to your case officer.

@Solitin40, there is no penalty in calling or emailing them when your application has exceeded the global processing time and your start date is close. +27124236060 will even prompt you to dail 3 if your application has exceeded global processing time. Well you can follow your instinct. Best of luck.

Alright, thank you very much dear, I will.

I will do that on Monday thank buddy

Albion05:
Thanks bro!...
there is nothing much about it.
A reference letter from the bank stating the needful will solve it.
Some of this VO have gone nuts!..
thanks for your concern and I really appreciate that.

Your situation is a tricky one and you have to be very smart with this one.

In the past the CO sometimes raise that kind of conclusion and wait for your response if truly the bank statement is genuine.

You need more than reference letter from the bank. They are doubting an authentic document issued by a financial institution, the required response should come from the bank.


1) your dad should rake for the bank and his officer and take copy of that letter from DIBP to the bank.

2) the bank should address the soa issued to your dad and submitted to DIBP and stating it was issued by them and they can them directly for independent verification.

You need more than Mr obasanjo is our customer and he maintain with us reference letter from the bank.

Go with your dad to the officer and they .can get this done since the document DIBP is doubting was issued by them.

All will be fine by God's grace.

Same here too, pls which school do u intend applying to? I'm thinking of Griffith varsity

Please I need substantial replies to my question. Thanks

Guys, I tried applying to Griffith university and university of Victoria, I think it's kinda mandatory I apply through an agent. I don't know how much these agents charge, would v love to apply myself, is the a way out of this? trying to save cost, at least when necessary.

Good morning folks. For those of us that doesn't live in Lagos or have people there, which cheap/affordable hotels did you stay during medicals /biometrics can you recommend for a homie? I am going to ikeja today and ionno anywhere. Also anybody that knows the area should help. Thanks

Good morning guys,

A friend referred me to this trend some days ago, I urgently need your advise biko.

I used an agent to apply but they have been very disappointing, been having issues ranging for poor service to delayed updated and ed of provided documents. It was like a tog of war before they even ed my visa application in December 22.

I requested for the documents that they ed for me after going through what most people on this platform attached some days ago and I noticed that My statement of purpose (Sop) was not attached, my sponsors statement of was not attached too as against what they filled in the application page (see attached pic).

Prior effort to take charge of my application myself after discovering there incompetence have not been fruitful as they keep declining to give me the codes to my

I am confused at this point , I'll appreciate your kind advise please.

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

Thanks for your response but the agent is not PFL. However I ed my current agent head office in after discovering there lapses here in Abuja but there Lagos office is the one having this current issues.

Apply through their recognized or approved agent/representative.

It will also make the application process less stressful.
If you decide to apply on your own, it may take time for them to give you ission and even subject your application to a high level of scrutiny you won't even like.

As for the amount they charge, them and they will tell you.

The only way to hijack your application is to get your transaction reference number. It usually comes in the letter sent after youvpay for your application. Is your agent ed? If they are report them to MARA.

I really feel like mentioning there name but I think it is only fair to give them a little more time to amend there ways. I intend writing an epistles of there poor service when there time is up.

There name, the mails I sent to them concerning my complains and there unprofessional response will be posted on this trend if they don't sit up ( although I feel I have given then enough time already). I believe individuals currently working in the organisation is the main problem cos a friend recommended them from Australia.

What I want right now is a solution and thank to Albion05 and Soopamom for there recommendations

Welcome bro!..
Sometimes some of this agents don't really flow well with the applicants in of communications concerning their application.

However, there are other exceptional ones no doubt that have distinguished themselves when it comes to Travel agency. That's why you need to be actively involved throughout the process until your Visa is out.

Only you can tell or narrate your story/background in conjunction with their professional skills, advice and managerial ability. So be actively involve to avoid mis-presentation of some of your documents.

Goodluck bro!.

Thanks so much for this, I really appreciate

The issue is that, if you really want to take full control of your application, there are no down side, demerits or adverse effect to it. So as long as you know how to go about the application process, in of ing your documents, checking your mail box, updating document if the embassy request for additional document from you.

If you can operate your smoothly, there is no problem dear.
But make sure you finalize with your agent and have conclusion wether they will continue to manage your visa application process for you or you have decided to terminate their services and know you are the one fully in charge to avoid confliction.

If the GURUS in the house knows any side effect to this, please do not hesitate to clarify this.
