Hello everyone,
I have been following this blogs quite long time now. I need some advice if you guys can assist me. I have lodged RSMS for nomination and application on 6th Jan 2016. It seems like that would take another atleast 1 month to get the response from IMMI.
Now my question is my student visa is getting expired in this month and unfortunately I failed in 1 subject in my last semester. So, should I apply to extend my student visa? I understood that i would be automatically switch into Bridging visa and I can complete my study during my Bridging visa but i do not know what would be the decision of RSMS application. So just for safe side i wanted to complete my study so even if i get unfavorable decision from immigration then I could have option to apply for subclass 485 after completing study. But my lawyer said that if I apply for student visa now then there is high chances of rejecting student visa application because I have allready applied for RSMS so can officer can reject my student visa application on the basis of non GTE ( Genuine Temporary Entrant) case.
So friends, please advice what should I do? Should I lodged student visa application or not?
please advice guys.
thanks
