yup, super volatile lang ngayon. But hopefully, Aussie politicians will swing the other way around & will let more people in...arrival cap review again on the 24th.

All the best @bluebubble!
Guys, pwede ba mawaive ang quarantine fee if unemployed ka? does it apply to the new migrants? I came across this document from South Australia, so hndi ko lng sure if it really applies.
"Financial hardship
You may be eligible for a fee waiver under the grounds of financial hardship. You must be an Australian
citizen or a Permanent resident to apply for this waiver.
Eligibility is assessed against criteria including, but not exclusive to:
An individual being unable to meet current financial obligations (e.g. home loan, immediate living
expenses), including due to the quarantine period itself
Unemployment or on Jobkeeper/Jobseeker or another relevant Centrelink service or an
Australian studying overseas
Loss of a business entity, home or possessions due to COVID 19 or a natural disaster.

Nag order kami ng Aus sim nung anjan pa kami sa sg, to be activated pagdating sa aus. Pero di naman gumana nung dumating kami Aus. Merong mga free optus sim sa airport, nakalagay lang sa mga baskets. Kumuha lang kami tas prepaid sya top-up na lang (by apps)..Then eventually pina-port in lang namin sa postpaid since nagamit na namin na number un para sa TFN, Medicare etc. Port-in lang, kay hubby sa telstra postpaid tas sakin optus pa din prepaid to postpaid, same numbers.
Meron akong nabasa isa ding member na ang ginawa is nag order sa Circles tas pinadeliver sa hotel. Hope this helps
