By the way, I created a separate Discussion regarding this topic, I noticed na medyo marami din pala may mga similar questions regarding State Sponsorhip:

Kailangan kasi nila ang address mo para madeliver nila via mail ung TFN mo..
For Medicare, sabi nung nag-apply kmi, nakalink daw ung system nila sa Immigration, pati yung entry date mo.. So palagay ko hindi din pwede yun.. mabilis lang naman ito wala pang 5 mins sa pag-apply so hindi sya malaking hassle..

Hi TotoyOZresident and Ren,
Thank you for the information which you posted here. We appreciate all of them.
My family and I are bound for Adelaide on April 2013. We got our visa 475 approved mid of this year. We hope to meet up with you at the church once we arrive. Kindly share the April event when near so our family can sked meeting with you.
1. Does anyone in the group have children ages 8-12 boy and girl? Our kids are adjusting to leaving their friends and cousins here in PH so they are hoping to have new set of friends from there.
2. Would you happen to know of a 2BR place/house - fully furnished which we can rent for a family of 4?
3. Is there a good school, preferrably Catholic school, that you can refer to us that has principles on Diversity, has Filipino kids?
God bless you!
Cheers,
Faith

Yup yun sa kanila around $80 family of 5 sila, couple and 3 kids. Buong family na yup. Sa may Parramatta NSW ata yun private health provider nila. Although nakalimutan ko na yun iba details, baka din subsidized yun kanila ng company kaya mababa considering 5 sila sa family. Yun samin baka ganun amount lang kasi 3 lang naman kami. Kasama na hospitalisation, and dental ata. Pero baka next year na ako kumuha, kapag regular na ako sa trabaho. Kasi iwas ako sa monthly na mga binabayaran. Hindi naman kami sakitin sa observation ko. Meron din naman Medicare if meron magkasakit.

Hi @icebreaker1928: Sagutin ko ha? Yung private health insurance ko is AusHealth (IMAN Australian Health). Eto kasi ginamit ng mga nauna sakin sa Oz at mga yung andun na. Ginaya ko lang din. It's $76/month basic cover. May website to, if you want to check it out. Kasi baka iba needs niyo. Ako kasi, wala ako dependents, mag-isa lang ako.

may 457 visa po ako kaya di ko alam kung ano ang mga kelangan gawin pag arrived po?
Joined: Jun 28, 2011
Below is a list of 5 important things that you should do as soon as possible after arriving in Australia for "457 visa only".
1. Apply for a Tax File Number (TFN)
Do this first. To receive an income in Australia, you need a Tax File Number (TFN).
2. Open a bank account
In Australia, most income including salary or wages and government benefits are paid directly into a bank account.
3. Enroll Your Children in School (if you have children)
Under Australian law, children must attend school until they are 15 years old.
4. Apply for a Driver's Licence
5. Ask your employer on how to apply for membership of Long Service Leave Authority
Goodluck..

What is Long Service Leave?
Long service leave is additional leave given to the employee who has worked in the same industry for 10 or more years.
Is Long Service Leave the same as superannuation?
There is no connection between Long Service Leave Scheme and the C+BUS Scheme, nor with Industry Redundance Schemes.
How does the Scheme Work?
The employer will record the service and wages for each employee and remit the Long Service Leave Levy to the Authority. When an employee has accumulated an entitlement they may make a claim and the Authority, each scheme has its own eligibility criteria please refer to the Industry you are registered under.
This is only for ACT:

Additional information of employee benefit...
cheers.
