Tuloy ko pa ba Australian dream ko or tama po kaya sya ?
Personally, I think if there's even the smallest part of you that wonders/wants it, you should try, if you have money to spare. And for #4, since you are entrepreneurs, I'd worry first if eligible ba for PR. Are either of you skilled in an occupation that's in the list https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/visas/working-in-australia/skill-occupation-list If yes, check niyo eligibility for skills assessment. Are either of you (primary applicant) under 45?
After you've established na may chance kayo based on the eligibility criteria, there are a few other factors to consider. Such as, do you have the budget for the process? Would you be willing to work in Australia? What are your long-term priorities? Show money is generally not required but some states (for a 190 visa for example) require it. The process also has multiple stages, so it's generally quite lengthy, so if there's a best time to apply for you, now would be it.
Most, if not all, of us who intend to migrate do so for the long-haul benefits. For me, starting over will take a few years yes but I'd rather have that short-term struggle than cope forever in the PH with the traffic, graveyard shifts (na super common in IT dito since we're always adjusting to US HQs), non-livable wage, lack of social spaces, and a lot of other things. We know none of these things will change na. But it depends per person. Iba-iba tayo.
I'd discourage you from going the Student Visa route. Marami ka nang commitments and it's not only expensive, but temporary with no guarantees of PR after.
