Thanks for you help guys, much appreciated

Hi all! I have opened a westpac account and I am wanting to transfer monies using my online UK halifax bank account. I have gone on to the "pay a person" but it asks you for details such as sort code. Does anyone know what info need to put in instead, as obviously i dont have an aussie sort code? if I leave it blank will the money go through okay? I cant believe halifax charge you nearly ten quid for every transaction. Any help would be appreciated! Laura

Hi there, My meeting with AHPRA (to complete nurse registration) has been arranged only ten days after my arrival to Australia. AHPRA have asked I bring along with me, "Evidence of identity's residential address in Australia (e.g bank statement, utility bill, lease agreement). If no permanent address available please provide a Western Australia statutory declaration form declaring the current residential address". My problem is up to the 6th of December I will be staying at a B&B and there after its possible I will either be staying at a house share or friends. Has any one used the Western Australia statutory declarations form for this issue and was it difficult?, where do I obtain this form? Any other advice would be appreciated. Thank you Laura

Hi there, I'm moving to perth 28th November 2013 and I've not had much luck yet finding a temporary accommodation (2-3months). I'm a staff nurse and will shortly be commencing work at a hospital in Nedlands, so ideally would like somewhere near there as I will be relying on public transport initially:unsure: I'm happy to house share and figure this will be the best place to meet people and make new friends. I'm stopping at a lovely b&b to start with and will be needing something from the 6th December. Hope you'll be able to help, laura x
