I had a UK visit visa refusal back in 2016, and now I’m planning to apply to a university in Melbourne for a Masters, preferably Deakin or RMIT. However, I was told by my agent that because of the visa refusal, I am not able to apply to universities in Melbourne. The reason for my previous visa refusal was the failure to show the source of funds, which led them to believe we intended to stay permanently. Additionally, I was 17 at the time and was applied for as a dependent on my parents' application. All our visas were rejected.
