Hi... I hope you don't mind me asking, how much money did you prepare for the showmoney? Does it have to be in the account for 3 months? Or 2 months stay in the account before application of visa would be enough? Thanks

Hi. To address your query, for the evidence of funds, I showed three things 1. Recent payslips x 3 months 2. Recent Bank statement x 3 months 3. Updated certificate of employment with my monthly salary stated on it.

As to the amount, TBH, I am a little more prepared. However, my good friend showed amounting 250K PHP, and he got approved as well.

Another friend of mine will be lodging this May and plans to show recent bank statement x 1 month. She claims she has friends only showed the same thing i.e. 1 month bank statement and worked out fine too. All the best for all of us.

Hello kyle_em, your reply is very much appreciated. I now feel a bit more confident in lodging my application next month.

Again, thank you for the detailed response! God bless us in all of our applications!

How long have you been waiting for IHNA's confirmation? If you have been waiting for a while, try to give them a call. Slots are filling up quite fast. I almost got moved to a later intake eventhough my friend and I paid the downpayment just a day apart. The staff are very accommodating.

You're welcome. I wish you good luck too! :)

It's been 8 days i think. I sent another email to the admission officer whom i sent my application with, but i got no response. í ½í¸”

May i ask for the number from which i could call with? Thank you

I'm planning to go to ACN June 2017 as well..still waiting for AFP result so I can email them, don't have an acceptance letter yet, cause I want to email my application with complete requirements. How about you are you enrolled already?

Yah, i have my acceptance letter already. Still have to pay the final fee this June. Do you have your visa already?

I just send the application form through email today, I don't have the result of the AFP check so I don't think they will give me an acceptance letter without it, hopefully by next week.

By the way, how do you plan to pay the tuition fee from here? so no visa for me yet, can't apply without acceptance letter from school right?

Do you have a visa already?

There is a toll free contact number in their website. Try calling that and request to be connected to your specific branch or to your officer.

Hi gangguro23, if everything goes well as planned maybe we'll be classmates in ACN on June, here's my email add [email protected], I hope we'd keep in touch, anyway we'd probably be classmates.

Hi guys,

I've sent my application to the AHPRA office last 18/4/2017. They sent me an auto generated mail last 26/4/2017 stating that they received my application but my credit card was not charged yet. My questions are as follows:

1. Is it okay if I sent the COGS a week before the AGOS-40?

2. The COGS will be valid until 16/06/2017. Would it be accepted? Or should I send them a new one?

3. When should I expect them to charge my credit card?

Thank you guys! May God bless you all. I would appreciate your answers.

Aj,

They sent me an auto generated email without any follow-up after a week. Have you received yours?

Hi there! I am planning to enroll for June intake in ACN. Just want to ask regarding the vaccinations. Do they need the BCG proof of vaccination and Mantoux test? Or is the Quantiferon TB enough? Thank you!

I just submitted my Mantoux Test result to them.
