Hello guys, I have some issues with this visa hopefully anyone can help me figure it out.
I arrived Australia on July 20 2012, and then studied an English course despite already got IELTS mark that meet the requirement. Finishing English course, I studied 2 years in Associate degree in Business, getting credit exemptions (all 16 subjects) and transferred to one year in Bachelor of Logistics and supply chain management. I also got IELTS (overall 6.5, General module) after finishing Bachelor course. My first visa was granted on July 2012. I finished high school in my country and immediately moved to Australia.
However recently I got the refusal for acquiring Temporary Graduate visa subclass 485 as the immigration department does not accept my Associate degree. I would like to ask why they refuse? I'm sure I got credit exemption from Associate degree, because if not I could not graduate Bachelor degree within one year. And according to my research from difference websites, as long as the articulating course (in this case is Associate degree) contributes to the eligible course (my Bachelor), I am eligible to acquire TR visa.
