Did you sort this out?

We stayed here http://www.brisbanegateway.com.au/ . Was nice had everything we needed and they do short term rates which are cheaper then normal holiday rate http://www.brisbanegateway.com.au/short-term-accommodation.html but it is on the south side of Brisbane and a bit far from North lakes.

This may answer you question. Part A of the vehicle registration transfer application (F3520) (PDF, 158KB). A completed new customer application form (F3503) (PDF, 938KB) if you are a new customer and it is your first time doing business with us (for example, interstate or overseas driver licence holder). An original copy of a current Queensland safety certificate (unless youdo not need to get a safety certificate). Your original licence or other evidence of identity—if the vehicle is to be registered in 2 names, both people must provide suitable evidence of identity. Evidence of the Queensland address (PDF) of where the vehicle is garaged—this can be your driver licence, property rates notice or either a gas, phone or electricity bill. If you buy new then the garage does the paper work. If you can get a Queensland licence it is much easier to register a car. We used our short term accommodation to get our licences and register the car to then switched it on line when we got our long term rental, maybe one of the people you are staying with will let you use their address.

Hi Katherine This is an old post not sure if you will get answer. If you have Facebook this is the Dyslexic group on the Gold Coast you may get a answer from them. https://www.facebook.com/groups/gcdyslexia/ I know that Robina state school is dyslexic friendly https://robinass.eq.edu.au/Pages/default.aspx and Silkwood private school http://www.silkwood.qld.edu.au/ there maybe others. Nigel.

Hi The Gold Coast http://www.visitgoldcoast.com/things-to-do/is a big area it would help if you could supply more information as to what you are looking for in a good suburb, do you want new houses or older , how many bed rooms , water views, play grounds, parks, what type of schools do you need . We live in Oxenford near the theme parks, in a three bed two level house nice quite area, Helensvale mall http://www.westfield.com.au/helensvale/ 15 min drive away, all major supermarkets an easy drive, short drive onto the motorway, Movie World , Dream World and Wet and Wild water park all in the area. 15 to 20 minutes to Gold coast beaches, Southport and Surfers Paradise or go the other way into the hinterland and rain forests. The drive to and from Brisbane can be a real pain one road that can become a parking lot very quickly, also found when I was looking for work living in the Gold Coast worked against me when applying for jobs near Brisbane. Anyway happy to try to answer any questions you have. Do you have Facebook as there are a couple of Gold Coast expat groups on there. Nigel

Got this from http://www.deir.qld.gov.au/workplace/licensingregistrations/licences/dontneed/index.htm#.U-CvGOOSxbK Licences no longer required Several types of licences previously issued by Workplace Health and Safety Queensland are now discontinued. These are: building maintenance unit bulkloader or shiploader internal combustion locomotive refrigeration plant trencher crane chaser dragline straddle carrier cable way explosive power tool front-end loader/backhoe front-end loader skid steer loader excavator dozer bridge or gantry crane with 3 or less powered operations road roller scraper grader Although these licences are no longer required, persons conducting a business or undertaking still have a duty to provide information, training, instruction and/or supervision necessary to ensure the health and safety of all persons. But you do need a High Risk Work ticket to operate a Fork Lift, Crane, ect. I think your biggest problem would be lack of experience (if you do not have any) operating any plant as most jobs require you to have some for safety reasons and to meet the productivity that's wanted. Have seen a few guys with experience looking for work on Facebook and Gum tree.

Nehajha you would be better of posting this in the http://www.lifeinvictoria.com/ forum or on here in a new thread.

Congratulations

Maybe it is because you do not have any Australian experience, where as other applicants do and you will not get a call if you do not meet the job requirements. Two months is not a long time looking for a job and it can take a lot longer than this. Also you may want to find some one to look over you resume there are plenty around (look on Google or if on Facebook join a local page where you are and ask) that will do it some may give you free pointers as to what if any thing may need to be changed.

What make of tools you got? if they are not sold here you may have problems getting parts for them. A good commercial mower is going to cost you upwards of $1500. all your tools would have to be spotless i.e. no mud grass or seeds to pass customs. getting them serviced would be easy just a matter of finding a good shop. I think most landscapers use reel mowers in Perth if I remember rightly.

Hi We live in on Oxenford on the Saltwater estate, nice quite some nice houses around depends what you want, as above would choose Pac pines over Coomera or Upper Coomera. You also have Maudsland which has some nice areas. Sorry can not help with schools mine go to a small private school.

Mr Hockey added that he wanted to encourage businesses to employ people who were "restarting" their careers at the age of 50 or 60, particularly those switching from jobs in manual labour. Would like to know how he is going to do this. I am 51 and cannot find a job. So how is someone who is 60-70 going to get one?

Hi Just giving you post a bump,sorry cannot give advise about schools as I live in Oxenford not Upper Coomera. Hopefully someone will be along to answer your question.

Link does not work

Got any pictures?

Hi Jim. Take a look at http://www.brisbanegateway.com.au/index.html in Rochedale. They have two and three bed cabins for short term rent http://www.brisbanegateway.com.au/short-term-accommodation.html. It is right next to the M1 and M3 motorways so easy drive to Brisbane or to the Gold Coast. Make sure you get the short term rate as it is much cheaper than the holiday rate. Nigel

Is there anyone on here who has kids at Varsity College and is willing to give a honest account of the school, can do it by PM if necessary as I know not everyone wants to write on a open forum. We have looked at the schools website and my school site and searched this site and are looking for more up to date information. Thanks Nigel

Hi Do you have list of what you are selling and prices Thanks Nigel.

Hi Do you have a list of what you are selling and prices. We will be there in a couple of weeks. thanks Nigel.

Yes that sounds like the same place. Not sure if it is the same apartment. how did you find getting a long term rental? Was it hard, lots of competition.

Hi Is Scarborough a safe area, we are looking at a short term rental apartment on Landsborough Ave for when we first arrive. Thanks Nigel.

Ok this I do not understand?

Which is the best car rental company to use. Have looked at Apex, they seem to have the best deals ect, is there any others that I should check. We will have alot of bags so will need something large.
