Hello! Magkano po kaya ang safe na dalhin na money pag dating? May work naman na ako pag punta pero most likely aabutin ng 1 month bago ako makastart dahil may aayusin pa sa AHPRA.
Gaano katagal ba bago sumahod doon? or depende iyon sa employer?
Bale hindi naman po ako married, pero pag dating doon, mag stay muna ako sa partner ko. Yung accom niya sagot ng company nila so wala na problema sa bayad.
Ok na po ba yung 1,500-2000 AUD? or pede pa ito babaan haha. Thank you! ๐
The more money you bring, the better. If you're live a frugal lifestyle (hindi ma-shopping or madalas kumain sa labas), that AUD 1500-2000 should get you by for maybe 1-2 months (if you're not paying any rent). If you are setting up your own place, kakainin ng rental bond ang pocket money mo, as that's usually 2-4 weeks worth of rent. I.e. if you will rent a place for AUD 300/week, ideally you would have AUD 1200 for your 4-week rental bond, plus AUD 600 for 2 weeks rent, so AUD 1800 agad yun. If you can only stay at your partner's place for a month or so, better bring more money, and then wait until you are getting regular salary so you have better cashflow when it's time to find your own place.
In Australia, the salary is usually paid every fortnight (the same day every 14 days), but it could be monthly too, depending on your employer. Most companies' payroll would be Wednesday or Thursday (that's why a lot of stores have late trading hours on Thursdays kasi sahod na).
Once you sign your job offer/contract, HR will ask you for your TFN and bank details (apply for your TFN as soon as you arrive, because that can take a few days as well, and they will have to send your TFN details via snail mail). The sooner you get your TFN and banking details sorted out, the sooner you can get on the payroll. If you delay submitting your details and you miss the payroll cut-off date, you might not get paid until the next payroll cycle.
