tough luck, hopefully Canberra will have graphic designers in their eligible list.

After spending close to 3 years on NZ application and putting up with their tantrums for all this while I have ran out of steam to pursue another visa application

Jokes apart ,my occupation is currently on MODL/CSL list, but what I hear from boarders is that it is soon going to be revised, so I am keeping my fingers crossed.I am looking at 175 visa.I was also looking at SS but the fund requirement is slightly steep and my parents after seeing 'racist Australia' on news channels would not be willing to give me fund's affidavit

yes, that is the main problem im facing...funds!! i was making arrangements for funds as per SA visa, i think its SIR 475...but for ACT fund requirements are double!!!

so thats a big hurdle for me.

and for nZ...they have really gone mad....my friend got selectd but still havent received the ITA pack...no response from immigration NZ...their deadlines r crazy...im sure u knw that!!

well...lets hope fr the best!

all d best with your application!

I just applied for ACT myself, and have spoken with the people there on several occasions. They were insistent that we met the financial requirements, otherwise our application would not pass. Try and get exactly the amount the amount they require to give you application the best chance. Remember, the funds need to be in an account in your name for at least 3 months.

Hi MAt,

yes they have mentioned the eligibility for at least 20000 AUD but what confuses me is that they also mention that if you cannot arrange 20000 you should include a statemnt mentioning what other resources you have to survive for 1st 6 months in ACT.

Now my immigration agent is working on this thing and asking me to proceed with 10000 AUD and rest support from my parent's property and assets.

So im in a fix right now whether to proceed or not.

But thanks for your message!!
