After 7 happy years here we will be returning to UK in New year was not an easy decision Becoming grandparents was our turning point as they are in UK in fact all our family is what has amazed me is how negative our English friends are towards our move back we all have our reasons and it's not a cheap easy decision to make i am very excited and scared at the same time but I remember having the same feelings when we started our journey to Oz this time will be harder as we have to sell our house here and OH has to find employment but I know it's the right decision for us and we are looking forward to the new phase of our life with our family

There is absolutly nothing wrong with Canberra it is a lovely clean quiet city more like a large country town I lived there for over 2 years, it is very different to the larger cities like Melbourne (where I now live) and Sydney only youcan make the decision good luck.
-
I totally agree I live in Wyndham Vale and love it, Werribee is an older town and certainly has its good and bad points as does most areas even the ones that are classed on here as wonderful places to live!!!!
-
Hi lottie your 457 can take anything from 4 weeks once a CO has been appointed to upto 3 months, I think it depends on which area you go to and there particular processing times,good luck with your move to Melbourne we love it here, after spending 2 years in Canberra there is so much to do, which area are you hoping to settle in?
-
If you have Private medical and need regular dental/ optical and go to a members choice practice you can get back at least 70% and in some cases there is no gap so can get free especially spectacles. hope this helps
