    Hello everyone! Im new in this forum. my family is currently based in dubai and we have heard na ok daw to migrate sa SA. I have some questions, i hope u can enlighten me.

    Kmusta po ang cost of living jan? Mahal ba ang rent ng house, food expenses, transpo? Usually po ba ang rent is for the entire house or uso din ang sharing jan?

    Madali lng ba hanap and mkpasok ng nursery ang mga kids? Kmusta nmn po ang bayad :) ok nmn po ba ang mga school?

    We're still contemplating if we will push through our migration plan. Kakatakot din pala pag walang kakilala sa pupuntahang lugar

    @Mommykulet Hi there!
    Entire house 2-3 bedroom $350 to $450 per week depending on location. Food expense every per meal around $10. Transpo $3.19 bus ticket (valid for 2 hrs) kahit gaano kalayo. Groceries for one person per week would be less than $50 (sakin kasi good for two weeks na yan :P ). House sharing is really common depending on how many bedrooms (5-7) may cost you from $90 to $150 per week most of the time utilities are included.

    Highly recommended na ikaw muna pumunta then once may job kana saka mo kunin ang family para mas cheaper ang everday cost. But its your decision :)

    Hope this helps.

    Hi ren! Thank you very much for the reply. Akala ko walang papansin sa post ko eh :D
    Ung rent na binagit mo is good for 1month na?

    Ay meron ba may idea dito kung ok ung visa na subclass 489? Mas madali daw kasi ang requirement nito para smen kesa mgapply kme subClass 190.

    Sensya na, wala kasi akong ibang matanungan eh.
