@Cassey I posted to state our individual status here in Australia but nobody had responded. Happy anniversary to us here May 2016 batch! Happy mothers day to all thread members (as applicable) as well! Yes, we had all settled and graduated here. CONGRATS TO ALL! <:-P

Cassey

@admt2016 Yung kawork ko rin, walang private insurance so far so good naman. At least yung gagastusin mo sanang pera for check up, maiaallot for the baby na.

Cassey

Hi Cassey, waitng pa kami ng visa. Kasi nanganak ako so nadelay ang medical namin. We just completed our requirements and hopefully to get the visa soon.

Cassey

@kholoudmanlucu Hi, oo nga pala. Naalala ko na, nakausap rin kita rito before. Parating na yan, in God's grace. O:-) Happy mom's day! Lahat kami nagdarasal para sa inyong pamilya.

@Cassey thanks. May isang mate pa pala tayo Si @kholoudmanlucu waiting pa sa visa grant nila. Happy to hear that most of us went and settled well. Excited na kami sa fiscal year change haha

@elleb1 nauna na c hubby sa Sydney nung January plang. Sunod ako hopefully this June. We are hoping makakuha na ng permanent job

kholoudmanlucu

@Cassey Thanks. Medyo matagal na din kami nag aantay. Pero hopefully this month magrant na kami kasi nkumpleto na namin last month yung requirements namin. Nadelay din kami dahil dun sa Saudi Police Clearance which is not possible na makuha pero statutory declaration na lang ang pinasubmit sa amin.

Cassey

@jedh_g May i know why you are excited? Hehe Is it for the tax refund?

Cassey

@kholoudmanlucu Okay lang yan, may dahilan naman kung bakit tumagal ng ganyan. Mas okay na yan na may inaantay kesa wala. Magagrant na kayo for sure kasi nagcomply naman kayo sa hinihingi nila.

jedh_g

@Cassey you got it right mate plus my job contract progression into permanent status

admt2016

Ano meron sa tax refund? Naririnig ko na to pero hindi ko pa natanong sa sister in law ko na accountant, siya din kase magaayos ng tax namin. @Cassey @jedh_g

Cassey

@jedh_g Good on you, Blessings are pouring.

Cassey

@admt2016 Tax returns cover the financial year from July 1 to June30. May makukuha kang part sa binayad mo na tax for the financial year depende sa income mo at depende rin sa kung ano yung mga ikiclaim mo like yung work uniform pag ikaw bumibili, laundry, petrol pag may work trainings ka, etc. Usually, yung employers nagsisend sila ng tinatawag na group certificate sa employees mga around June. May tinatawag na tax treshold, pag yung income mo is below $18,200 for the financial year, makukuha mo if not all most of the tax that you have paid. Pag more than $18,200 naman ang income mo then may computation sila. Yung sa amin is pinapagawa na lang namin sa accountant hehe We pay $50 for it.

admt2016

Ah ok. Hehe. Sister in law ko accountant namin, libre! Hehe. Di ko pa rin masaydo magets un tax refund. Ask ko nga din hipag ko about that. Malaki ba un? Makakatulong ba sa pangdown ng bahay? Lol @Cassey

Cassey

@admt2016 How i wish pwede siyang mkatulong pangdown hehehe Dko rin maexplain maigi kasi pinapagawa lang namin yung amin, haha Depende sa income niyo this financial yr eh kung magkano makukuha niyo. Tapos meron ding tinatawag na medicare levy na babayaran kaso dko rin maexplain, hahaha Tanong mo na lang sa sis in law mo, hehe Last yr, my hubby got $2800 and yung 1st year namin dito as student visa he got around $7,000.. Just an idea of how much one might get.

admt2016

Aba pede na pantulong mkogdown ng bahay. Hehe. Kelan nrrcv yan tax refund anong month? Hehe naging interesado kasi pwedeng pangdagdag sa bahay kahit papano hehe. @Cassey

kholoudmanlucu

@Cassey Thanks for your encouragement.

Cassey

@admt2016 Yung lodging ng tax claims starts on July 1 until October 31. Expect to have the money in your bank in 5 business days.

admt2016

Cassey

@admt2016 You're welcome, Kami mahaba haba pa ang bubunuin para sa bahay hehehe Napakamahal eh,

MissOZdreamer

@Cassey hello. How much po usually ang cost ng house jan pag bumili? Thanks

admt2016

Medyo may kamahalan kse dyan sa melb. Hipag ko dyan kse 1hr away sa city nakakuha ng bahay. Dto sa adl kase medyo mura mura pa, un ntira sana nmin ipon galing singapore un an ipangddown kung papalarin. @Cassey

Cassey

@MissOZdreamer Depende sa location, sa Melb yung tinitignan namin is around $500,000. Meron din namang nasa $300k malayo nga lang sa city at hindi pa masyadong developed yung place.

Cassey

@admt2016 That's good nga kung makakakuha kayo ng bahay. Yan din yung next goal namin ni hubby kaso madami dami pang iipunin, hehehe Oo nga mahal sa Melb. Sabi nung kawork ko mas okay raw kung at least 20% yung idadown para lesser fees.

MissOZdreamer

@Cassey thanks sa info usuallyila g percent ang downpayment? Minimum of 20% din ba like dito sa pinas? Dapat ba permanent ang job and not contractual? Thanks ulit

jedh_g

Sad news mates, wala na slot available for passport renewals here in Perth. Either Canberra or Sydney consular office lang pwede mag personal appearance to apply. See you soon sa inyo hehe...

Cassey

@MissOZdreamer Walang anuman. Minimum is 10%. I'm not too sure kung ano yung tinitignan ng lenders when it comes to financial stability.

Cassey

@jedh_g Hehe Pasyal daw ng family kaya ka naubusan ng slot, hehe Just to let you know may tinatawag na price matching ang jetstar ibebeat nila by 10% yung cheaper price.

chehrd

Happy Anniversary po sa inyo

dito po ako mag-post ng query ko ha, coz i feel dami na may experience sa team na to..
we just arrived in Melby last Sat. we opened a bank account na, we went to centrelink and medicare..
tama po ba understanding ko na:
1. medicare-to wait for the card, once we have it, go to GP para sa vaccination
2. centrelink-they provided us the CRN and PW to log-in..we will wait for the number sa medicare and vaccination tapos apply online sa family tax.
3. TFN-filed online, will wait for it to be sent sa post. we were given a transaction reference number


tama po ba?
did i miss something po?
