Ito lang po ang possible na implications na naiisip ko for now:
Private Health Insurance (If you and/or your spouse are 31 yrs old and above): http://www.pinoyau.info/discussion/794/private-health-insurance-in-australia/p1. Dito po they count from Visa grant.
Citizenship-meeting the residency requirement for Australian Citizenship (if this is an important factor for you and your family). Dito naman po, they count the residency, from 1st arrival. pls refer to this: http://www.citizenship.gov.au/applying/how_to_apply/migrant_perm_res/
