I won't speak for Jim911 but your earlier post states unequivocally that any international student who isn't rich is "desperate to migrate to Australia". That sounds like a bit of an overgeneralisation; surely that can't be the case. Furthermore I don't think any "ordinary" international student in uni or on the street would appreciate being thought of as being desperate to remain in Australia.

Well I have and I don't see it the same way, and you haven't clarified why exactly you find Vietnamese people in Richmond "horrible" etc. Your posts sound very racist, and I'm not sure if you're aware of it at all or simply don't care.

And what is stressful or shocking about a place "teeming with Vietnamese people"?

I agree with rammygirl; your written English is really good, and is actually better than some native English speakers'. At least in doing the right thing, you can sleep well at night after your application has been approved and you won't have to worry that you'll be found out one day. All the best, and may your application be approved soon.

The two things are separate, aren't they? Although they can both arise out of the same set of circumstances, a warning is not a charge, much less a conviction. Surely the question above could be answered truthfully in the negative?

Hey Sutu, What I can tell you is that the Adelaide office processed my application, but the CO changed so the CO that notified me of my grant was different from the CO that contacted me for additional information, for example.

Hi everyone, I got my grant today as well. I'm really grateful for this site, as it's been a treasure trove of information.
