  1. Hi all We have recently got Pr via 186 We have one child currently and are expecting our 2nd in Feb 2020 Does anyone have any experience of receiving the paided parental leave or if we are entitled I can't find a definite answer on centerlink website
  2. Hi, A friends of ours got sponsored by a graphic design company in Melbourne, Hi, A friend of ours got sponsored by a design agency in Melbourne a few years back and have recently got pr from the same company. 457 could be a option
  3. Most ads on Domain or Real estate state if it pet friendly, if your cats are housetrained I would leave out the fact you have 2.
  4. Having close friends and 2 family members working in various roles within the NHS, They all speak of the same issues huge cuts and a lack of staff. One is a sister of a ward has been in the NHS for 25 years told us at Christmas its gone past breaking point.
  5. It works differently to the UK but if you find a property you like I would chase the agent non stop till you get the answer you want, They tend to be laided back in getting back to you.
  6. Have you been to Bundaberg ? its a very small city full of stereotypical bogans I spent 5 months there in 2012 doing my whv and in my opinion its a shocker of a place. out of interest what job/work have you been offered ?
  7. Yep we will have ambo cover and private health wasn't included in the sponsorship , Our experience in the past was unless you pay big bucks you get very little for your money.

    Hi guys : )

    We have just been granted our Visa grant it being a 457 but we had to prove our defacto, We used bank account, travel documents/holidays, various dated photos from facebook, joint insurance documents and stat decs from friends. We didn't have any bills or rental agreements in joint names, If your a genuine couple you have no worrys at all Mike
  9. Hi all, We have just been granted our 457 visa, I have one question does Medicare suffice as adequate health cover or do we have to have health cover? We will be under the joint $180,000 mark We was on a 457 visa 2013 to 2015 but then we returned to the UK to have our daughter and during the duration of the visa we never had private health insurance Cheers Mike
  10. We came back from Melbourne when my partner was 26 weeks and we had no issues
  11. Hi We did Melbourne to Adelaide then Adelaide to Robe, Port fairy for 2 nights each and returned up The great ocean road stopping in all the usual places overnight took 10 days in total in a Maui 6 berth van in the first weeks of Jan 2015. Price wise most campsites was $80 inc power a night, fuel was $400ish and the van was $1800 from memory . We opted out of the extra insurance and was also a little concerned after hearing the storys of false damages etc etc but when we returned it they was slack to say the least I wouldn't worry to much. If they are doing the costal roads I would allow a min of 2 weeks
  12. Hi I'm sure your going to love Melbourne, you have to check out a Afl game at The G if you decide to move to Melbourne/Vic you need a team to "barrack" for i suggest Geelong. The City and most inner surburbs have a different vibe about them depends on what you like really, The Great ocean road is a must. If you follow Visit Melbourne on Facebook they is loads of info and advice on there. As the other poster said Brookfield isn't really Melbourne and Melton isn't the best of places. Have you looked into visas? ive been told the sparkies need to re qualify to work in Aus Good luck
  13. Congrats guys! We lived in South Yarra 3years ago till last June great location plenty of apartments to be had. We fly back out with our daughter in March
  14. Hi all, We are moving back to Melbourne in Feb/March and have had a quote of 2195 gbp for 430 cubic feet door to door shiping of our goods from Anglo Pacific in a shared container.
