Anyone who can answer my question regarding visa? Which is better student visa or subclass 600? i am associating it also with my choice of school. If i get a student visa, is it possible to extend it and enroll in different course (e.g certificate in aged care) just in case i don't find job immediately? or if i get subclass 600 (either multiple entry or single entry), can i extend this visa or convert it to student visa? thank you very much peeps.

I'm not giving up on this. This is the 4th time I'm posting this:

Anyone here going for BP this coming October 19 with MCIE/Wimmera Health?

Thanks!

Are you sure that your going to do your BP at ACN? Think about it first. That school will really fail students without mercy.

Student Visa is valid for 2 years and after 2 years of student visa the government will allow you to work for another 2 years, so thats 4 years in total. For subclass 600 for Filipinos you will get a multiple entry which is valid for one year.

Hello guys,

I just finished my bridging program at IHNA melbourne last August 2015. Then I re-applied to AHPRA and after 1 week I have the result. After that I start applying jobs online while im having my vacation here in the Philippines. And fortunately I have been given a job offer and will start in October. Just dont listen to negative things guys. Go get your dreams period. No question.

I like the positive spirit! :)

Just a quick question, did you have the student or tourist visa? How many years of experience did you have in the Ph? :)

Hi I submitted my application August 27. I already received my LOE last Sept 24. I tried to apply with IHNA Melbourne but both October and November intakes have booked out already. I already applied with ETEA and hopefully be able to join their October intake? Anyone who will start their bridging with ETEA this October? Cheers!
