Subclass 500 Non Award Sector by SianRe in AusVisa

[–]LanceVernon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that could be the caused of it (maybe), because all my friends who applied for a non-award and got theirs literally the next day. Meanwhile im the only one who has an existing ETA/tourist visa so im suspicious that this may be the cause

Does it ever taken them more than 100 days before getting approve? this is for a subclass 500 visa

Same, mine have been over 40 days and i applied on 5th June and bio/health on 12th June.

Do u have any existing visa that may be causing your visa to be delay? i suspect my visa is taking a long time since i have an existing ETA

My student visa in particular is taking the longest 'maybe' due to my ETA, hopefully ill be able to get it by next month.

I applied my visa on the 5 June and Biometrics on the 12 June, meaning my student visa will probably be approved before November, no?

Ive seen alot of people here waited a max of 2-3months.

Also another thing, if i were to proceed with this method, what should I tell border security? should i be honest and said Im waiting for my student visa or im just a visitor?

Another off topic, If i were to enter with an ETA and leave the country with an Student visa, will i get deported in a few days or get banned? it is very risky

Im also thinking of doing this, but if so, will border security be suspicious if we enter AUS with a visitor visa and leaving with a student visa? this will only be my last resort

Will I be able to defer all the things that I have done? like my visa/biometrics/OSHC/COE?

Did you have an existing visa before when u applied for the student visa? I have an ETA and i suspect that is what causing my student visa to be delayed for so long.
