      Get stamped from your country foriegn ministry then Malaysian embassy I think not Malaysia higher education

      Zai Hameed replied 8 years, 4 months ago

      No. As my VAL was rejected, immigration requires my certificate to be stamped by Malaysia Higher education.

    With my personal experiences for past 2 times, I won’t recommend anyone to go Malaysia for higher studies. Reason: Malaysian Immigration Department and their unknown reasons for student visa rejection. Seriously, it usually depends on the mood of the official dealing with the visa. If their mood if bad, beware, your documents will have some…[Read more]

      i dont know what ur experience was but i have seen q lot of people get their VAL in just 2 weeks and have no problem at all cause they had all the right documents.if u wont provide them with right documents ur visa will get rejected so i recomend people to provide the right data instead of complainng like u

      @Faraz anwar: Please stop judging before blaming me for complaining. You have no idea how much I have to go through to get this VAL. Secondly, me and a friend both finished degree from same college, did medical from same hospital and applied for VAL together. Her one was approved a month ago. But they refuse to approve mine. And I believe it’s my…[Read more]

      @Ahmed Hadad. Thank you for your concern. My VAL was rejected at 35%, without any reason given. I have been trying repeatedly to solve whatever issue it was. My university appealed for my VAL and after waiting for over a month, my VAL appeal was rejected today. Still no reason given. Nor my university or EMGS has any clue why it’s rejected. Only…[Read more]

        They they approval of val is at the discretion of immigration office only which means it’s confidential and immigration will not let anyone know.

          Tell us what’s in the remarks section. Did you have any problems prior or while getting to 35%? Also, how long did it take you to get there? Were you in Malaysia before?

          • Profile picture of Zai Hameed
            Zai Hameed replied 8 years, 4 months ago

            No, I got to 35% in about a week or more. But at 35% it got rejected. Later my college appealed and it was processing. But at 60% appeal was rejected by immigration.
            Yes, I visit Malaysia often and as a Maldivian I get on arrival visa. Never faced any issue.
            However, for my bachelors – it took over an year for VAL approval and I decided to quit…[Read more]

    Zai Hameed posted an update 8 years, 4 months ago

    My VAL was rejected at 35%. After several attempts to know the reason, I was not given any. But my university appealed for VAL again- and after 3 weeks of patient waiting, today I was notified that my VAL appeal have been rejected at 60%.
    Still no reason given.
    Malaysia immigration have been one hard place for me to understand! If you reject a…

    Still no process since it turned 50% (after it was once rejected & my college appealed). It’s been about 15 days.. My uni intake begins sep 2017. It’s will immigration. Any idea or advice on what to do, to get my VAL approved sooner??

    Zai Hameed posted an update 8 years, 4 months ago

    My VAL was rejected at 35%. University appealed for it and now it states 50% (VAL is processing at immigration). I am worried because it was once rejected. It’s now 10 days, no change to percentage. What shall I do? How many more days should I expect to get a process in this..?

      Don’t worry about that if you states 50% that’s good, sometimes the immigration department take time

      How long it took you to reach 50% from 40%?

      • Profile picture of Zai Hameed
        Zai Hameed replied 8 years, 4 months ago

        From 35%, after university appealed, it took a week to change to 50%

    I have a past student visa from a university I quit in 2012. In 2017, I couldn’t get my VAL approved because of it. Any idea how I can cancel my past VAL approval?

    If VAL have been rejected, what’s the next step to do, with the institution & EMGS refusing to tell me the reason for rejection. In September intake begins, can I even join my univeristy by then??

    • Profile picture of Kashif Khan
      Kashif Khan replied 8 years, 4 months ago

      I can think of three major reasons for MY immigration refusing VAL to a student.

      (1) They feel that the student is not genuine student. Instead they wish to enter Malaysia to work etc.
      (2) The immigration department finds the student a security risk to Malaysia based on the check run their border security force.

      (3) Offer letter, academic…[Read more]

    5 days since my VAL have been rejected. Constantly trying to contact my university to assist me appeal again. They say they can’t give any reason for rejection. Called EMGS personally to know why my VAL was rejected, they even say they can’t give me any reason. EMGS can’t help, univeristy is not helping. On September intake starts, and am hopeless…[Read more]

      Ehy your application is rejected?

      • Profile picture of Zai Hameed
        Zai Hameed replied 8 years, 5 months ago

        No reason is given. It just states that VAL is rejected and this is at sole discretion of the immigration.
