Check domain.com.au or realestate.com.au

hanap po muna kayo ng suburb na gusto niyo then mag viewing kayo ng mga property na interested kayo. Pag po may nagustuhan na kayo tska kayo mag apply.

Take note lang po na hindi po madali mag hanap ng ma rerent na property. para din po kayo nag apply ng loan since ichecheck nila capability niyo na mag bayad and madami competition sa nag aapply din sa property na most likely na mapili niyo.

Meron naman din pong mga pinoy na tumutulong sa new migrants na nag paparent ng rooms. Pede na po yun habang nag hahanap ng work or ng mas permanent na place na mastayan.

Good luck po.

hello po.

what do you mean po na possible niyo mapasukan? meaning work po?

Do you have visa na po ba? if wala pa po check niyo po dito https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/visas/working-in-australia/skill-occupation-list

kung saan pong occupation kayo pasok at kung anong type of visa yung applicable sa inyo.

@Noodles12 Thanks po.

Are Filipinos in Sydney generally trustworthy? or are there anything I should be aware of when accepting help or dealing with fellow Filipinos? Because I have experience here in Singapore na may mga kababayan ang mapagsamantala and may mga undesirable attitude.

yung totoo? madaming pinoy na mapag samantala kahit saan ka naman pumunta. dito madami din ako nadinig na pinoy na pinagsamantalahan ung mga bagong dating. lalo na ung mga naka student visa na inaabuso at niloloko.

Tska hindi porket pinoy makasalubong mo sa daan dito eh beshy beshy na or babatiin ka. wala din pansinan mga pinoy dito lalo na yung matatagal na andito. alam niyo naman po siguro ang ugali ng pinoy. nadadala padin dito lalo na ung crab mentality.

pero madami din namang pinoy na handang tumulong sa kapwa pero yun nga pipiliin mo ung pag kakatiwalaan mo.

@flaming_vines not taxable as long as you are not considered an Australian resident for that FY. Once you are considered a resident, you need to declare any interests or gains though I read somewhere that ATO rarely audit individuals but it's better to be safe than sorry. They have the so-called AUSTRAC who monitors financial transactions and they can alert ATO or other gov't agencies if there is a red flag.

Hello po. Question po. Ano po meaning ng 'you are not considered Australian resident for that Fiscal Year'? Ibig sabihin po ba hindi ka pa nakatira sa australia, or nasa labas ka ng australia?

Sa case po kasi namin, nakakuha na kami ng tfn..pero nag declare ako ng no income ng fy 2018-19. nag stay kami ng 3 months sa act pero umuwi ulit kami sa pinas, then babalik kami May 2020.. pag nag transfer po ba kami ng pera, ma taxan sya?

Hi @Ozlaz, we exchange peso to aud sa bdo amounting sa allowable max value na pwede dalhin. Then yung remaining withdraw na lang sa NAB atm dito.(650aud nga lang max per transaction, 25K pesos lang kase max transaction kay bdo. pero depende pa din sa exchange rates yung mawithdraw mo, may transaction fee per withdrawal. so wag na din magbalance check kase may charge yata) Then pwede mo na i-adjust jan sa pinas yung max na pwede iwithdraw (e.g. 25K php x 3) if gusto niyo mas mabilis mawithdraw agad yung full amount. Kami kase everyday nagwithdraw. Thanks.

Happy new year all!
kumusta na sa mga naka big move sa 2019? okay naman po?
anyone living in Sydney here? Kumusta po job honting nyo? Meron bang ICT field dito?
I wonder how long it will take to look for a job.
Meron bang galing UAE (Dubai) dito na nag big move na? how's the adjustment?

tmasuncion

@geneaux 25,000 Pesos transcation per day noh?
so you're suggesting withdrawing the money via ATM? hindi pwede ma transfer online?

@tmasuncion said:

@tmasuncion yes equivalent to 25K pesos per transaction. Pwede increase ung limit sa bdo para mas mataas yung total amount na mawithdraw per day. Pero limited pa din sa 25K per transaction.

Option lang na ginawa namin is to withdraw via atm. Pwede din online transfer, need niyo lang to read yung procedures on how to do it. Mas simple kase yung via atm withdrawal kaya yun na lang ginawa namin. hehe.

Hi, From Sydney here. BM January 2019 so mag 1 year na kami dito. bilis ng panahon. it took me 3 weeks bago nagka job offer and I'm a software developer. Siguro iba iba naman experience ng gaano katagal makakuha ng job. yung iba takes months yung iba may work na bago pumunta dito.

Sagot sa tanong na "okay naman po?" - Okay naman, mahirap sa simula, madaming adjustments specially sa culture ng mga tao since iba iba nationalities ng mga makakasalamuha mo, andyan nadin ang homesick at boredom since napaka tahimik lalo na sa gabi. Pero if you are thinking about the future of your family. Okay na okay.

tmasuncion

@geneaux thanks sa inputs!

tmasuncion

@noodles12 ayos! and congrats in 3 weeks naka hanap ka ng work. you're right depende nga eh.
galing ka rin ba ng Dubai? kasi, iba iba din naman mga nationalities dito eh. kaso, majority mga indian. hehehe... cguro ma mimis ko mga friends ko dito sa Dubai. 8 years na kasi kami dito. may mga solid na kaibigian na na establish.

bbtot

@isa1826 Ok lang yan sis. Basta mag-BM ka kung kelan kayo ready. Kami halos sinagad namin yung 7 mos na binigay samin. Haha.

Happy new year!! Pag nagopen po ba ng NAB acct. sa online magkano ang kailangan na initial deposit? Or need ba ng may initial deposit? Since tama po ba na magaactivate lang un pag pinuntahan personal sa au.

Wala naman need initial deposit afaik. We usually open bank account while overseas to transfer money papunta Au while offshore. Kong di ka nmn mag transfer while offshore, tsaka ka na open pag dating mo.

Third party booking? SkyScanner ba yan? Naku mahirap or hindi talaga ma-manage ang booking if third party kahit anong airlines pa yan. Kaya maganda talaga sa mismong Airline website na magbook, pwede pa mag-add ng additional baggage khit one day before the flight.

Sino po ang nakapag try mag avail ng extra kilo s mga new migrants? San po kaya magiinquire?

We did well we tried sa Qantas, booked the flight NOT directly to Qantas website so ayaw nila magbigay kasi sa 3rd party site nagbook. Cancelled our flights and booked to Singapore Airlines. MUCH MUCH better ang bilis kausap at maayos . Qantas... walang kwenta. And ang ganda pa ng plane ng Singapore Airlines at masarap pa food.

Hello my wife and I just got our visa grants couple of weeks ago and we are aiming for the big move this march or april..

Just want to ask if it's wise to sell our properties before we finally settle down there in AU? Is there any cons of maintaining them while residing abroad say tax wise? Thank you.
