not that i am aware of... my info might be a outdated

from what i know, they just deduct the years of experience claimed depending on whether they decide you have a major or minor in IT

that's something new... cos i thought the worst that could happen is just no points for work experience, but an outright decline seems a bit harsh...
i'd expect that he will still be getting 15 points for his degree, 25 points for his age and maybe 20 points for his IELTS... that's still eligible for a subclass 190 with NIL work experience

i remembered someone pointed out that the 2 year graduate visa is nothing more than a long period work holiday kind of visa...

that's cheap compared to a notary public... do DIBP and australian agencies accept local malaysia court certification?

Applying as an accountant. Seems like there are too many of us nowadays  ....

Congrats.. My EOI was submitted and re-assessment is in progress.
Hope everything goes well.

Hi all, I'm looking to apply for temporary graduate visa soon but I have some generic questions and I have no idea who to look for. My questions may be generic but I fear I have to go through a painstaking process for migration agent advice etc. I just want to know

Is it possible to apply for a temporary graduate visa after my student visa expires? The website says possible but I will need to be on a bridging A visa. However, bridging A is granted to you after lodging a visa application so I'm really confused now. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Hello guys!

I've spent 10 days in Melbourne and will be leaving tomorrow morning. Back to KL, sigh. Met up with a couple of friends that are now living here and i feel so envious of them.

I graduated from UTAS couple years back so its not my first time in Aus/Melbourne. Have always felt that its a nice place to live.

I've read all of v2 thread and have some questions.

- will the 3 - 4k application fees be refunded if we fail our applications for a visa? Eg. Due to failure in meeting the requirements?

- i graduated with a bachelors deg which i dont think will ever be in the skilled occupation list, so i feel that chances are slim for me to come over for work. My friends told me however that because the majority of my siblings are in aust, i can apply using the remaining relative visa to get a PR. However, i did some reading online and if im not mistaken, its not "majority sibling in aust" but it's if you're the only one left outside of Aust. My parents are still in Malaysia, so im not the only one left. Just wanted to check if any of you came over using this visa? Can share your experience please?

Happy chinese new year guys!

Thanks

apply for citizenship is cheaper than RRV 

Anybody planning to migrate make sure you do it quick. As assessments in the future will be more difficult

Planning to get my Visa via https://e.australiavisa.com.my/ , any idea how to check the validity of the visa?
Just wondering whether this website might be a scam since it's so cheap to purchase at RM25.

Agent can direct liaise but if we apply ourselves cannot right?

i just got an offer for an internal transfer from my current role in Malaysia to move to a similar role to the Australian entity in Sydney. The annual salary is AU$189K (inclusive of super and health insurance). I'll be on my own for the first 6 months, after which my wife comes over to do her masters.

I was wondering if $189k is sufficient for a comfortable live with 30% savings in Sydney (i'm thinking 2 bedroom apartment rental, and a car). What's the opinion of lowyat members currently residing in Sydney as well?

hr said 457, though I thought 457 is/about to be abolished?
Isn't the tax much higher (I was expecting like 120k take home)

I'm thinking parramatta area. 1000/week is furnished?
