PR card or any local id card

Does AU issue any PR card once you stay there for good (e.g. National ID card)?
If there's none, does new migrants need to always carry their passport around? TIA!

    Medicare card ang usually hinihingi nila dito. Dko lang sure kung ano ang pagkakaiba ng Medicare card ng mga PR at ng 457 visa holders (baka ung kulay).

    Ang primary ID na madalas hingin dito ay yung driver's license. Andun na kasi nakalagay ang home address mo, ang birth date at photo ID na rin.

    You don't need to bring your passport every time you go out.

    Since nakalagay yung address sa DL, hindi ba advisable na kumuha agad upon arrival if you're going to stay temporarily at let's say a friend or relative's place before you find your own rental?

    Thanks @clickbuddy2009 and @lock_code2004!

    I checked yun proof of age photo card, for 18yo and above lang pala yun. So sa mga kids mo yun medicare lang tlaga ang valid au id for them bukod sa stamped passport?

    Iba pa ba yun concession card?
