    Napansin ko lang na di gaano nababanggit na dapat iconsider din sa babaunin na amount yung cost ng pag-furnish ng rental unit. Karamihan ng flats and houses na pinaparent dito ay unfurnished. Kung single or couple, pwede naman paunti-unti ang pagbili ng mga gamit para di mabigla sa gastos. Pero kung may kasamang kids mas kailangan na makumpleto agad ang mga gamit para kumportable sila.

    Para magka-idea sa costs, pwede kayo tumingin sa sites ng Ikea and Fantastic Furniture. Pwede rin tumingin sa The Good Guys for appliances. Makakabili rin naman ng secondhand sa FB Marketplace.

    totoo, nung nag BM kami hindi namin na consider to. inisip namin na onti onti nalang pag nag sweldo pero hindi ganun ang nangyare.

    Dito naubos yung funds namin. lol Na alala ko since ako palang noon nung first week ko sa townhouse na na rent namin wala akong ka gamit gamit, sa sahig ako natutulog(buti carpeted mga kwarto). Bumili lang ako ng unan sa kmart then bumili ng kawali at 2 pcs na plato para makakain. 1 week puro tuna(pronounce as CHUNA lol) at itlog kinakain ko. hahaha

    Nung dumating mag ina ko bumili lang muna ng inflatable na kama tapos yung maleta namin ang ginagawang table para makakain. So we decided na need na bumili ng mga kelangan, tska kami bumili ng kama, ref, washing machine, dining set, sofa, tv etc. Pikit mata nalang muna at kaskas sa card. haha

    naka 1 year na kami nakabawi bawi naman nadin sa mga nagastos at sumikip na ang bahay sa mga gamit na napundar kaya we are looking for a bigger space na. hehe

    Sa mga mag BM na may anak na mag school iconsider nyo din sa gastos yung uniform may kamahalan ang uniform kahit free tuition sa public school. Uniform kasi is pang ibat ibang season(summer, winter etc)

    Hello Noodles 12,
    Good sharing salamat po.. BM po kami mid 2020 going southeast suburbs Melb. Yun pong sa townhouse rental sa simula how did it go po? Pa share po panu ... need po ba talaga may work para maka rent? Kahit na may substantial funds sa account need pa rin may work po? Appreciate po inputs pano i handle looking for rental space kahit small apartment lang po for wife and kid... salamat po uli.

    In my experience medyo mahirap talaga mag apply ng property kung wala ka work. Sobra dami ko inapplyan na property noon and parati sa iba nabibigay ung property. Minsan sa Gumtree pag sinasabihan din ako ng landlords na need nila yung regular na sa work. Hindi mo din naman sila masisi.

    Nung pag dating ko kasi dito syempre wala pa ako work pero may malaki laking funds ako sa bank account kaya mag sustain ng ilang months na rent pero ayun nga madami padin refusal. Pero naka swerte ako ng isang townhouse. So I think depende nalang talaga sa landlord kasi sila naman ang nag aapprove.

    I suggest mag join ka sa mga filo groups sa FB like Pinoy AU Sydney. I'm sure meron nyan for Melbourne and mag post ka na nag hahanap ka ng temporary room or place. Kasi ganyan din ginawa ko for 1 month may Pinoy na nag pa rent ng room and dun ako nag stay hangang makahanap ng permanent place at work. Tska mas maigi na wag niyo na muna isama mga kids habang wala pang permanent place at mga gamit. Trust me mahirap mag commute commute at magastos. Once ma settle mo na ang place tska mo sila dalhin dito.

    I am not sure regarding those who have not made first entry but for Au PRs you will still need to apply for NZeTA (New Zealand Electronic Travel Authority). Download the NZeTA app on your phone, enter your details and apply.

    From 7News Sydney:

    Coronavirus: The Australian Border Force has issued a statement on border control measures and travel restrictions to Australia.

    Full Statement: Travel Restrictions – effective immediately:
    • The Australian Government has announced that as of 1 February 2020, all travellers arriving from any part of mainland China, regardless of nationality, will be subject to enhanced border control measures to ensure the health, safety and well-being of the Australian community.
    • Australia will deny entry to anyone who has left or transited mainland China from 1 February, with the exception of:
    o Australian citizens
    o permanent residents
    o immediate family members of Australian citizens and permanent residents including spouses, minor dependents and legal guardians
    • Limited exemptions also exist for airline and maritime crew, where they have taken appropriate precautionary measures.
    • These enhanced public safety measures will apply to those seeking to enter Australia as well as those seeking to transit through Australia en route to another country.

    International Travellers:
    • If you have been in mainland China from 1 Feb 2020, and you are not an Australian citizen, permanent resident, or an immediate family member (spouse, minor dependent or legal guardian) of an Australian citizen or permanent resident, do not travel to Australia at this time.
    o If you attempt to travel to Australia, either directly or indirectly, your airline will not allow you to board the flight.
    o If you do arrive in Australia and it is determined you have been in mainland China from 1 Feb 2020, your visa will be cancelled and you will be placed in an alternative place of detention for a quarantine period.
    o Please do not attempt to travel to Australia unless you are an Australian citizen, a permanent resident or an immediate family member (spouse, minor dependent or legal guardian), until these measures are lifted.

    Temporary visa holders:
    • Temporary visa holders who are ineligible for entry into Australia under these measures will have their visa cancelled.
    • Arrangements will be made to reinstate visas as appropriate following the lifting of these enhanced border control measures.
    • As the Prime Minister announced, these measures are temporary.

    Information for Australian citizens, permanent residents and their immediate family members:

    • Australian citizens, permanent residents and their immediate family (spouses, minor dependents or legal guardians only) are able to enter Australia.
    • If they have been in mainland China they will be required to self-isolate for 14 days from the time they left mainland China.
    • These measures are temporary and will be reviewed in 14 days.
    • The Australian Government Department of Health is working across agencies and with states and territories to implement measures to manage the risk of 2019-nCoV.

    see "things to note"

    If you are an Australian permanent resident you must hold an NZeTA (New Zealand Electronic Travel Authority) before you travel.

    Nope. Just the cash... and you must declare if carrying an equivalent of AUD 10,000 or more, counting and converting other currencies.

    How’s the Ncov being managed in Australia? We’ll be temporarily staying in a suburb in Sydney na highly populated by Chinese. Unfortunately, we cannot cancel our booking because it’s non refundable :(

    Saang suburb po kayo mag stay?

    In my observation here(Sydney), parang no big deal yung corona virus. No panic, bihira naka mask, parang wala wala lang.

    Not sure sa mga suburbs na madami chinese like Burwood, Campsie etc.

    Yes! Totoo. Napansin ko din to. Malakas din maghoard sila ng mga hand sanitisers. I went to Priceline Box Hill kanina, bawal daw maghoard and only 2-3 bottles lang per customer allowed. Somehow, na-appreciate ko din naman kasi maraming international students/investors na Chinese satin. Siguro umuwi nung holidays at bago bago pa NCOV, di pa masyado nagrerestrict ang Australian border. Precautionary measures kumbaga.

    Mark 11:24 Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.
