I see. Thanks.
I read somewhere that dependents above 18+, I have to pay a 2nd installment for them if the dependent cannot demonstrate a functional English.
The alternative way is to have the dependent enrolled in IELTS and have a grade not lower than 4.5 or, provide a certification of English.... from the institution he/she attended.
In the case of my mother who is 67 years old and an elementary undergraduate, but can understand/converse in English, can we still send her IELTS to take the test?

Our initial plan is to have my wife apply for 189 and tag me as her dependent (due to me not having enough work experience).
Are there work restrictions for dependents? Like a dependent cannot apply for work for a specified period of time?
All I can see in DIAC are only criterias to qualify as a dependent-partner.

Thanks again!

Anybody here who has any idea on how much benefits we could get? Checking the human services calculator, it seems that we'll get roughly 900 aud per fortnight (family tax etc)...

You know what? Our initial plan is as same as yours, except for the selling of the house/car part..
Could be happier if we could go there as 1 pact. Eventually we decided to entrust our 3 kids' welfare to our mothers until we are financially settled, hopefully in 1 year time.
Sana lang malagpasan namin ang emotional stress na maidudulot ng pagiging malayo sa mga bata.
Good luck on your plan. All the best!

In the end we decided na we go as a family, anyway we have a bit of assets (house, car) and savings (stocks, savings) din naman kahit pano and the supposed benefits from centrelink that we might get since we have 3 kids, also may makuha pa pala kami sa separation pay as well as sa pag ibig (thanks to this forum where I learned that!)... Also, life is an adventure, so go na kami!

natuwa lang ako sa post mo kasi eversince mahook up ako dito sa pinoyau, wala pa akong nababasa na magmimigrate / nagmigrate na family of 5, kaya nung umpisa parang atrasado ako kung ipupursue pa ba hehehehe..
well...since nasa step 1 pa lang naman kami (gathering educ/employment docs), anong malay namin baka kailangan ulit namin bumalik sa drawing board and assess the Pros and Cons (version 2).
Life is an adventure indeed.

Anyway, regarding your daughter, wag kayong mag-alala about her English. Actually ang mga bata dito, after ilang months lang mas magaling na mag-english than their parents. hehehe ang goal ng mga parents dito normally, turuan magtagalog mga anak nila kase nakakalimutan na nila eventually. Un ang challenge dito. Kaya ung anak ko, tinatagalog ko, 2 years old pa lang sya. hehehe Kahit tinatagalog ko andami nya nang nappickup na english words. May law ngapala ang Au na by 6 years old dapat enrolled na ang bata and pumapasok na sa school.

Option 1: kami muna, habol nalang si baby (2yrs old sya by the time lilipat kami)
+: flexible accommodation and no schedule constraint, kahit pauli ulit ang ulam ok lng.
-: nde kami makaka claim ng benefits, kelanganan magremit para sa budget ni baby sa pinas.
Option 2: buong pamilya
+: magkakasama kami, can claim benefits
-: pressure maghanap ng work, baka mahirap makakuha ng slot sa childcare, added cost ng childcare although my rebate naman
