Not really...

mabilis lang ito and it won't take up too much of your time; this is nothing to worry about.

ang concern dapat will be on getting a job once here. 🙂

Agree with @psychoboy. Madali lang gawin ang lahat. Ang mahirap iyung makahanap ng work.

i enjoyed reading this site...sinimulan ko talaga from the very start... let me restate lang lahat ng nakuha kong information about the things to do (in order)

Pa-roaming ang Philippine cp no. and buy a prepaid sim to have an australian no.

2.(Optional) NSW Photo Card (to serve as your official ID in NSW, ayt?)

get your Tax file No. (online)
Open a Bank Account (based on reviews here, NAB is the best since walang additional fees and minimum charge)...with regards the higher interest rates, and transfers online, and credit cards, di ko masyadong naintindihan pa...can anyone explain this further please?
Get MEDICARE (which needs the Bank details from no. 3)
(optional) centerlink
(optional) private health (kung may work and maka-afford na ng monthly payments)

did i miss anything??...

tanong ko lang, sa mga State Sponsored, if i remember it right, we have to inform the state that sponsored us of our arrival...san po magagawa yun?... has anyone here done it na??...can you share HOW po and WHERE?... many thanks...

icebreaker1928

@staycool ginawa ko yan sir...madali lang, thru email lang yan.

staycool

sir @icebreaker1928 , anong email add?...and ano sinabi nyo sa email?..na nasa Sydney na kayo?..yun lang?..hehehe

hello guys, alam kong somewhere nasagot na to pero di ko makita kung saan eh. Here is my question, our agent here in Singapore informed us na pagdating daw namin sa ausie, we will be entitled for at least 880 aud per month (because we have two kids). pero don naman sa website ng australian immgration, its says that we may wait for 104 weeks before we avail the benefits. although it says "may", meron bang clear explanation regarding don? we're planning to move by dec this year (kasi we need to na eh). Appreciate ur response. God Bless

nakalimutan ko na sir yung email e, pero nakalagay yun sa sponsorship grant mo...

nag email lang ako ng current address ko, phone number at company kung san ako nagwowork... tapos nagreply, thank you ... yun lang hehehe...

staycool

@icebreaker1928 ganun ba?...i should look at my grant letter again for any information regarding that...pero in case sir, baka makita nyo po yung email add...kse diba every quarter kayo magrereport ng status nyo dun?...i think nabasa ko yun before kaso i forgot where na eh...

Filamokio
