Hi guys, We are moving to Darwin 18th May and have been getting quotes from numerous companies to ship about 60 cubic feet over. The quotes have been very variable...From £500-£800 depending on the company. The cheapest has been from Clark & Rose, has anyone used them and what have you experiences been like? We are worried that if we go with the cheapest one that they are cheap for a reason, but they are part of BAR & FIDI so surely they have to be ok? .... What's everyone's thoughts? Thanks

Does anyone know if we have been granted a 489 skilled state sponsored visa if we are allowed to enter Australia in a different state and visit family for a few weeks before heading to the state that sponsored us? Have tried to find a contact number to get advised on immi.gov website with no luck!! Also it mentions on our visa that we can work/live in regional Australia, does this mean we don't have to stay in the state that sponsored us? Any help would be appreciated

State Nomination for Northern Territory subclass 190.
SamnRabb replied to Aus prince's topic in Working and Skilled Visas
We are also in the same boat as a lot of others, 190 declined, we have been offered 489 , so going for it as we have no other option! Hope all goes well with your applications. We are just about to lodge app with DIAC so fingers crossed from here.. Sam -
We applied for 190, got declined but offered us 489. I wrote a small essay in my own words (after researching NT) and although they didn't grant 190, they did offer 489. Try giving them more about why you want to live there, about schools in the area, raising a family, and what you can bring to NT Sam

SamnRabb replied to Laurajwirral's topic in Visa Chat
We were offered the same Laura, we are going for it as its our only option. Ideally we would've liked to have had the option to go elsewhere in case we don't like it but hey beggers cant be choosers Sam -

SamnRabb replied to Laurajwirral's topic in Visa Chat
We have been offered the same. Had the 190 declined but offered us the 489. This was mainly as we don't have any links to NT. (No family/friends/job offers etc) We are going for it as its our only option! Glad to hear about the Medicare cards though, did you take out other health insurance as well? Sam -
Hi guys, thanks for all the info above, we are thinking of moving to Darwin also and the above info has been really helpful. What's the cost of electric and gas and things like broadband and phone in Darwin? Is this also as expensive?

Hi everyone, We are currently in the process of applying for state sponsorship for Northern Territory, has anyone got any ideas about the cost of living in Darwin and the surrounding areas? -
