Hello guys,
Sorry po kung duplicate na itong post na ito. Nag search po kasi ako pero wala ako makitang ibang magandang information.
Ito po yung mga tanong ko.

1) Magkano po yung dala nyo?
2) Para sa ilang tao?
3) Para sa ilang buwan po?

Para lang po may idea ako. Wala po kasi ako idea pa sa purchasing power ng AUD.

Thanks!

    Hi..sabi ng friend ko, nung pumunta siya AU..15kaud daw baon niya for 3 months, although hindi daw niya nagamit kasi may work na siya after 2 weeks. Single siya..Pero interested rin ako sa magiging sagot dito.

    May isang nabasa po ako 10,000 yung dala nya. Tatlo po sila at for 6 months daw nila budget.
    Naisip ko pag sa States, kasya ito at may sukli pa pero wala ako idea talaga sa AUD.

    Pero ayun nga po, yun lang ang alam ko hehehehe! Looking forward for the response of our PinoyAu peeps.

    150 to 200 aud grocery per week for a family of 4. around 300 for utilities incl internet, phone, cable, gas and electricity. 400 to 500 per wk rent. basic exp yan may vary depending kung saan city. other exp depende na sa inyo.

    hehehe..actually..iyun kasi sabi sa akin. unit na pala ang 350k a week. akala ko room lang

    .

    so kapag compute ko..
    grocery - 200*4weeks = 800aud/month
    utilities - 300aud/month po ba ito?
    rent - 400 * 4 weeks = 1600aud/month
    Total = 2700aud or 3000aud/month?

    tama po ba ang computation?

    wala namang magiging eksena pag nagdeclare kayo ng more than 10Kaud...
    check nyo lang yun sa parang card na ibibigay sa inyo ng airline.

    pero magkakaroon ng eksena kapag may dala kayo more than 10K tapos hindi nyo dineclare at nahuli kayo.
    watch Border Security para may idea po kayo.
