Just wondering whether it is alright for me to carry some of my pirated cds, those that I burn by myself and bought over? Should be fine, right?

Just wondering whether all of the universities require the applicants to take IELTS or placement test before they accept them?

At the moment, I am due to accept the offer from Deakin.

Oh, thanks for the information.

Anyway, if I have previous X-Ray like maybe done in last month, can I use that? Or I have to go for a new one?

Actually, it doesn't matter. I just thought of finishing everything as soon as possible.

Can TS add me to the front page? I'll be a Deakin student soon. biggrin.gif

Once you applied for your visa, they'll let you know which clinic or medical centre to go for the checkup. Only authorized and recognized ones are available for the checkup.

Anyway, hopefully I can get everything done before I leave for Australia. I'm flying on 25 Dec but I still haven't paid for my fees, visa, etc. tongue.gif

Let's say my passport will be expired in 2010 but my course will end in 2011. Can I fly back to renew it in 2010 or I have to renew it before I go?

your passport can only be renewed 6 months before it expires. what you can do is when you do go back to Malaysia to renew your passport, just bring your new and old passport with you when you fly back to Australia. the immigration department will enter in your new passport details at passport control itself. though i'm not too sure if it is required for you to fill in form 929 even though your new passport details has been entered into the system or not

i will confirm this once i call the immigration department on this as i'm in this situation right now

Thanks for these. I'll wait for your confirmation.

So, I'll just fly with my current passport, right? Because it seems to be the only way.

But how about the visa? It'll be transferred automatically too?

That fast? I thought that they have to post your report to Canbera?

I renewed mine at the Malaysia Consulate here, took about 2 months time to get it back.

You mean you renewed in Aus? What about the student visa? Transferred automatically?

Alright then.

Another question.. let's say my student visa hasn't been approved in time but I already have to fly. Then, if I fly into Australia with my ETA first, will my student visa still valid when it's approved?
