Things to do first "After" arriving in Australia

Cassey

@PMPdreamer Kahit sino, pwedeng magrent ng granny flat. Yun lang yung tawag nila rito, 🙂

Cassey

Just an unsolicited advice sa mga magbiBIG MOVE, before you go to Au padentist na especially sa mga may kids dahil ubod ng mahal rito, hehe Filling lang is around $200 and up. Tooth Extraction is the same.

@Cassey thanks po

@Cassey Thanks sa Advice...

hi newbie here.. ano ba course na in demand sa work now sa babae sa au?

Cassey

@PMPdreamer @UbePandesal You’re both welcome, 🙂 Goodluck sa BM. Worth it din na kumuha ng Ambulance cover. Dito sa Vic $89 lang for the whole family and for the whole year na rin. Mahal kasi ang call out nasa $1k.

Seriously very important information thanks for sharing.

@Cassey

di covered ng medicare and dental needs?

Cassey

@kubera Hindi siya covered ng Medicare pero kapag child depende kung may Centerlink kayo. Kung titignan, malayo pa ring mura ang pagpapadentist sa atin so kung magagawa sa Phils it’s way better.

Sorry I can't find a proper forum to ask this, but maybe you have info on how much is the estimated budget for each skilled migrant upon arriving in Aus. What's your style in looking for permanent house and all? We're planning to migrate this year. 🙂

@PinkMagnolia IMO aim for around:

$350-400/wk for rent (goes higher the closer you are to your city's CBD)

$50-90/mo for power, water and internet each (these are very high and conservative estimates)

$50-60/wk to fund your transport card (aka go/opal/myki)

Stick to prepaid plans in the meantime and don't blow the data on Facebook/Youtube ($10/mo for 1 GB is enough for unlimited calls/text and Google Maps)

Expect to spend an average of around $12-15 per meal when eating out

hi all, I have a question. If you moved to Australia, applies for centerlink, tapos you decided to return sa dubai, for example, tapos iwanan mo muna family mo sa Oz. Will it have impact sa Centerlink? thanks sa reply.

Hi! New migrant here. Just arrived last Saturday lang with my wife and 3-year old son. My clarifications below:

1.) Sa mga nabasa ko TFN daw ang uunahin, pero nung pinuntahan ko yung site kailangan ipakita ang Medicare card as one of the secondary documents (my passport as primary) given the 100 pts rule to prove your identity. Please confirm kung kailangan tlga unahin sa Medicare.

2.) Went to Medicare office malapit sa place nmin (West Sydney), I was only given 2 Medicare enrolment forms (I assume for my wife and myself). Question: Paano yung sa 3-year old son ko? I had clarified, enough na daw yun. So yung son ko as "Additional People to be included in my Medicare Card"?

3.) Pede ba ma register Medicare at the same time Centrelink?

Salamat ng madami sa mga mkakasagot. Cheers!

@Megger I have a similar situation.

Would appreciate answers on this 😃

Megger

@gared , hows things na? Sa medicare isang form lang you can enter na up to 5 members sa family. tapos yong centerlink at medicare isang building lang, so sabay na lakad na lang. 2 cards ang hiningi namin at nakalist na dun lahat ng family member..

Megger

@mdnelle , walang sumasagot eh. d malinaw.

mdnelle

@Megger I asked a friend who's PR now in WA and he advised me to wait until the BM to process Medicare application (to avoid complications with the address) - since I'm worried as well sa delivery ng card.

Wala naman ata implications if i-delay un application until the Big Move. Thoughts anyone? 😃
