Hello everyone! Ask lang po sana ako pano computation ng tax sa Australia. I am from Abu Dhabi at wala dito tax and will be moving to SA this July. If earning 65k annually ano po computation ng tax? How much would be the weekly take home pay? WIll the company automatically deduct the tax weekly or fortnightly? Sorry i dont have any idea on any of this. I will be coming with my family(Wife and 2 kids) so i need to have an idea whats an ideal salary in SA for a family of 4. Salamat po sa sasagot.

Hello Guys! My wife is 6 weeks pregnant and wala pa kami sa OZ. okay lang naman noh?
no need for any documents. Totoo ba na maging citizen yung baby kapag doon ipanganak?

Hello, we are on the same boat. Sana may nakakaalam kung may need gawin. Salamat sa inyo. Congrats pala!

just saw this. might worth reading... https://expatforum.com/expats/australia-expat-forum-expats-living-australia/369585-wife-pregnant-after-google-page-ranking-grant.html

congrats to you too @tesu ... yeah, I came across a similar discussion and spoke with a few PR friends who are already in Australia and gave birth there. Most of them are saying the following things:

1. If Born there, then the baby will acquire citizenship at birth.
2. Hospitable bills will be covered by the government/medicare or in other words giving birth is for free as long as it is in the a public system. (Not sure about this yet and hopefully someone can confirm.)
3. fly to australia as soon as possible as it's not safe and healthy for the baby. they say 4 to 5 months is allowed to fly.

Hello.. I gave birth in Canberra. Flew there when I was 35 to 36 weeks pregnant. Gave birth at a public hospital, Cs. We paid nothing. All covered by medicare. Mas maganda pa yun hospital kesa sa St lukes. All my pre natal check ups are free. My son is citizen na.

wow! this is good news. I'm a bit worried talaga sa bills. all though may insurance naman asawa ko dito sa uae , but i don't know if it will be enough.

by the way, wala pa kaming work dalawa. libre pa din ba?

Yes, that time wala kaming work ng husband ko, just went there to give birth then umuwi muna kami dito sa pinas to sell our properties and para palakihin muna si baby ng konti. Wala kasi kaming makakasama pa doon na pwede mag alaga. We will go back to Australia on May this year.

Tax is usually deducted during payday. Meron din Superannuation. Most of the time pag salary negotiation ang asking amount is plus Super like "65k + super"

I only have experience with Bupa and Medibank. I switched to Medibank from Bupa due to discount from my work(about 15%).

It will really depend on your requirements and lifestyle. If you just want basic cover you can get the cheapest one and limited extras. At first, we opted for a growing family requirement that includes pregnancy, etc. After a few years, we changed our plan and remove the pregnancy and added some orthodontic services (to cover braces for my kid). Take note of the wait times (usually a year) when switching plan/provider.

Got our grant last Feb 13 .... hindi pa rin nagsisink in until now sa akin
Anyways, we plan our big move in Adelaide earliest would be June or July. We have until Feb 2021 pa naman to make the initial entry.

Meron bang makapagprovide ng checklist ng mga things to do/bring/etc.

Thanks in advance!

Things to bring:

• Pulvoron
• Peach mango pie
• Tabo hirap mag hugas pwet walang bidet. hahahaha

Joke lang po. Visa grant letter lang para sa immigration sa pinas, pag dating dito passport lang titignan.

Sir ask ko lang sa pinas immigration kung may interview pa ba on the granted PR visa or no more question na.? thanks in advance.

Mag update. Pero nun na check ko sa VEVO account ok naman na. Goodluck sa entry. Enjoy the moment!

auyeah

For those who are having their big move soon, ito yung mga items na sana nagdala kami ng marami kasi medyo mahal dito or out of stock or mahirap hanapin:
1. Face masks
2. Alcohol
3. Hand sanitizer
4. Tabo (meron naman pero hirap hanapin and around 5 dollars)
5. Portable Bidet (hindi uso ang bidet)
6. Tissue (meron naman sana ito kaso nagpanic buying na sila kaya always out of stock na sa groceries)

Feel free to add sa list if may naisip din kayo

Hi po, Just wondering,

1.if mahirap ba maghanap ng job as IT sa Melbourne? And usually gano katagal po?

2.how much po ang need na pocket money? Kasi po 26 years old lang ako and single so wala pa masyado savings napunta lahat sa migration.

3. San po ang mura na suburb sa melbourne na okay pa rin ang commute? Di naman po choosy pero okay lang to share. Kahit room for rent lang.

4. Saan po pwedeng sites maghanap ng rent? yung kapwa pinoy po sana ang gusto kong kashare para hindi masyado nakakahomesick since magisa lang po ako magBBM.

Salamat po sa answers

@Noodles12 @lecia Thanks! oo sobrang excited. actually more on excitement eh. yung una lang ako parang takot. but now, para gusto ko ng umalis dito sa UAE. I will surely miss my friends here though.

na excite lang ako kasi timing ang lahat ni Lord. buntis si mrs. kasi plano namin iwan muna cya dito sa uae. ngayon na buntis sya, granted sya ng 1 year leave sa company nya. so sobrang sayo ko na makasama ko sya at soon to be baby namin. tapos, nag offer pa pinsan ko na sa kanila muna kami mag stay until i get a job. fair enough! doon muna kami para kahit papano maka save ng konti.

yung nakaka takot lang ngayon is yung corona! lol

Sana hindi tayo matravel ban ung Pilipinas I read sa DHA na pag ang country is included sa travel ban, they will hold the visa grant until travel restrictions are lifted.

_sebodemacho

Best of luck sa mga mag BM!
