    I guess it depends on your senario, if with kids then its going to be difficult because you dont have centrelink and medicare benefits. If single or couple, and your field is in demand here then RSMS is not a bad idea.

    Have a look in seek.com.au how indemand are your skills set.

    Sorry I never used the word dredful to describe that 2yrs and counting. But then again maybe its just me. :)
    I dont know about other people though. ;)

    ynnozki, If I may, the whole SA is considered regional. and if you go thru the 489 path, you are allowed to work and live anywhere in SA but its a provisional visa for 4 yrs , meaning you wont be able to get the benefits of 190 or PR status. After 1 year naman pwede ka mag apply for a PR, when u gained enough points. Hope this helps.

    Hi guys, I'm adelaide boy. It's nice to be back in the loop. A sign of aging has led my password forgotten. Sorry about that. Hahaha.

    Panawagan lang sa mga bago, or padating or sa naghahanap ng tirahan. We have 1 bedroom available for $75/week (bills excluded siempre), male only. It's a shared house with me and Indian as your housemates, wag choosy ha? lol. Its location is just across the bus stop 21 along Prospect Road, Kilburn, 15 mins bus travel to the city. The house is kinda old but CLEAN. Yup malinis mga pre, kasi may weekly schedule for cleaning.

    The room is ready to rock and roll on the 1st week of November. Just drop me a line if interested. email: [email protected]

    Wetwiw! Thanks sa enlightenment @raiden14! Yup im aware sa restrictions ng 489, it will lead to 887 din after 2yrs and mas mura at mas madali na requirements...thanks!

    From Philippines to AU I think it depends on how much you want to transfer to AU, talk to your bank in Pinas. I remember just withdrawing it thru my BDO debit card at ATM here in SA.

    I prefer big banks like Commonwealth and ANZ since madami sila ATM wherever in Australia.
