Exclamation Too old to come over?
Hi

We are a very YOUNG couple in our mid fifties who have been considering Austrialia as a good place to retire to in a couple of years.

We both mountain bike and golf and would love to be near a beach. Don't like the very hot weather. so where do we start, indeed CAN WE start?

Any assistance would be much appreciated!!

Look forward to hearing from anyone who has the time to help!

Carolg

We are in lateish fifties and are about to go to Oz later this year but on a Contributory Parent Visa.
I take it that if you have no children in Oz you will be going on the Investor Retirement Visa

See this page on the dimia web site

Investor Retirement (Subclass 405)

Good Luck an if you need further info please ask
