PR Granted - Money needed to prepare before moving to Melbourne Australia

zoom

Hi Everyone,

How much money do you need to prepare to at least secure yourself and family for 3 month worth of job hunting in AU, if you have a PR visa? Lets say sa Melbourne, how much money on hand meron ka once you land in AU.

Thanks!

Depende yan kung saan location mu balak tumira, sa central district, w/in 5km ng cbd or w/in 10km or outer suburbs. Prepare for rental cost of $300-500/week, +rental bond of 1month worth. Food for $100-150/week. Transpo (depende kung saan ka) but prepare at least 50/week. Kuryente, probably 100-150month. Water bill (depende sa rental agreement). Entertainment 100-200 (+ticket costs) a night (dine out, movie/theatre).

Be aware na karamihan ng mga employer nag iinterview lang ng face to face. There are some who can do it over the phone but only a handful that I know.

yup, for couple $10k is enough. even i think for family of 3. First 2 months nio expect na masyadong magastos kc u have to buy lots of things...agreed sa figures given by Davidx23, but u can cut it down since expected na as newly arrive migrants u r careful sa budget. u can cut out entertainment fully, ung kuryente naman kapag shared accomodation kasama na xa sa rent. for 2 bedroom apartment dito sa melbourne, u can get a decent house for $300/week. ung sa food naman, hindi na din masyadong tipid ang $100/week including basic kitchen stuff and toiletries. kaya yan! do the move! 🙂)

Ask ko lang po for couple ba $10k lang ang allowed na perang dalhin? Kasya na ba un sa oz?

Thanks!

stolich18

stolich18

@stolich18 pack lunch.. its by choice.. wala naman kanin/ulam sa resto so microwave ko na lang sa pantry ang lunch ko.. hehe. i often eat sa harap ng computer and they dont mind at all...

@faye yep mahal sa sydney.. but 10k is not bad for a couple since may accomod na kayo. Pero kung wala kang kilala.. mabilis lang ang 10k i think bec of the rent. Pero dont get discouraged that you need more and more money to prepare... its the diligence and will to survive..

faye

@2rmobile thank u!!!

Puwede po ba matanong kung magkano dapat ang iniipon pag single at sa Sydney madedestino? 🙂 I'm seeing $10k as an adequate budget for couples so, is it safe to estimate $5k is good enough for a single guy in Australia? hehe

Kailangan nya na ng car... petrol pa lang mauubus na budget nya 😃.. iba pa yung pasyal.. may bayad ang bawat entrance 😃 cguro doblehan nya na... 😃 pero ipriority muna nya ang paghanap ng work. Pag may work na sya mas marami na sya makilala na girls. Kasi sa office madami naman friendly dun. Goodluck
