Thank you so much for your reply Quoll. Is that per child? X Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hi there, sorry if this is a repeat (which I'm sure it is) but I've used the search function and can't find anything. My husband may have the opportunity of a job and 457 visa sponsorship in Toowoomba QLD and I've been trying to find information about school fees but I can't find anything definite, could anyone help? Many thanks in advance x

Thats really helpful thank you

Oooh I'm interested in this also. Literally the only piece of furniture I want to bring with me is my great grannies linen box.

Thanks for your help everyone. I feel so much clearer on things now moving forward x

Sorry everyone. It seems if I want to include a link in my post or any copied and pasted quotes I need admins approval (being a newb) and its not being approved at the moment. Im not ignoring anyone and I really appreciate your replies x

Yeah I've tried to post a link but it requires admin approval first but according to the Live in Victoria website we need to have 80000 AUS dollars in the bank. It states: "You must have adequate financial resources to support yourself and your dependants (if you have any) when you migrate to Victoria, or while you look for suitable employment. The Onshore Applicants table and Offshore Applicants table show the financial resources you must have access to, to support your nomination application. We do not require evidence of these financial resources." The "We do not require evidence of these financial resources." part unnerves me. So technically I could have considerably less than that because no one will check? :-/

Ahhh! So it could be inclusive of moving fees etc? :cute:

Oh I'm not naive on moving costs but I have to have moving costs AND 40grand just sat in the bank that I won't be able to use until we land.

Hi everyone. So my husband, 6 children and I are hoping to move to Victoria. My husband is a Vehicle Painter which is listed on the CSOL so we were hoping to get state sponsorship from Victoria and apply for a 190 visa. We were so excited, hubby has 60 points so should be able to get a visa but then we found out we need £40000 savings ON TOP of all the money needed for visas, moving costs etc. I'm devastated. It will take us damn near a decade to save that kind of money. The only state I could find that apparently (according to a forum chat on google so not entirely reliable) doesn't require savings was NSW but they Vehicle painters aren't on their list for state sponsorship :'-( I had vague hopes that perhaps Vehicle Painting might make the SOL again (long shot I'm sure) and we could just apply for a 189 and that would be that but not so. Feeling a little hopeless today. Not sure how to move forward. My uncle who lives in Mooroolbark is 82, I so want to get to Australia and meet and get to know him before time runs out. I need a lottery win!
