    Did I miss something? Where did Livvy (the OP) say she was withdrawing from PIO?   

    Like me you never leave POMS IN OZ once you have been here trust me I have been coming back for donkey years just hoping I find that little something that gets me of the couch and on the plane and maybe some happiness while I can enjoy it.  She will be back and we will all still be herexx

  2. Hello Livvy

    I wish you lived next door to me I have been alone I think since I got here in 1989. I have been on here over the years but still here has I am frightened to try. My hubby passed away 2014 he battled for 4 year but sadly lost the fight. I have the one son 42 who is like Queensland wonderful one day weird the next. Yes I have neighbours to say hello to but that is it. I come from BOLTON an only child and all family have passed away so when I heard you mention Southport it registered with me I have spent many a happy days trip there much nicer than Blackpool quieter. I watch Escape to the Country all the time and Escape to the Continent all look very appealing but money is the problem. I to have a little saved a British Pension and a Aussy one but like you I would have to rent. I feel life is moving on quickler than me I have just had my 70th Birthday which was a real wake up call that I am running out of time. I am on here again the bad penny returns still not making any decision I live in Victoria near Geelong.

    I can reassure you my two dogs who had a six hour delay were in a far better state than I was after the flight. 

    I agree with you they are better cared for than us in Economy having done this 4 times Australia to the UK none of my dog's suffered. People have to realise that there pets are family would you leave a family member behind because they had to do some travelling, lets fact it babies on planes don't do to good but you wouldn't leave them behind would you. For us to be told we are being cruel is to be honest I find a disgusting comment and quite hurtful I love my little dog and would NEVER do anything that would hurt her or anyone but I think I could make an exception to these people and just walk on the other side of the road for your ignorance.

    Hi everyone,

    I will be inheriting some money from my grandma in the uk shortly (just waiting for her house to sell). 

    Can anyone tell me how this works with transferring it over?  I think I read that we are not taxed on inheritance here, so what do I need to get to show that is where it's come from?

    What fx companies are people using now adays?

     

    Anything else I should know?

    When my Dad passed away the Solicitor in the UK did all that for me I just had to tell her the Bank details. If you are like me a pensioner you have to take the whole paperwork to Centrelink and I mean everything. It doesn't change your pension unless it is a huge amount over the asset test.

    Hi Nijalo

     

    I have just done it. Flew back Monday and the dogs arrived Wednesday. Like you I am 54 and single but no children and I have an elderly mother here which informed my decision.  My financial situation is secure so I am not concerned about pensions so can't help there but I can offer the following advice around costs and logistics. 

    The cost for 2 dogs from Sydney was $4400. I used Jetpets. Shipping was $3500  plus $1000 for insurance. That was for 11 cubic metres which equals 1 queen bed , bedside tables, chest of drawers 1 sofa,  1 large  coffee table. 35 boxes of kitchen stuff and books, clothes and a ridiculously large shoe collection. So basically a 1 bed apartment of stuff. I used Chess. Everything was packed for me I didn't have to lift a finger. Which when you are a single female is a huge help.

    The whole process took 8 weeks from getting  quotes to moving  but I could have done it in 6.

    One of the reasons I am secure financially is the result of a very good exchange rate post Brexit. The proceeds from my house sale will go a lot further here.  Frankly I was gobsmacked by the amount I got. If you are transferring a reasonable amount  you will get a better rate than the tourist rates.  

    When collecting the dogs i met a couple and a lady a bit older than me both doing the same thing . It was a long wait and we got chatting and the exchange rate was a factor for all of us. If you do decide to move now is a great time to go and you certainly won't be the only fifty plus doing it.

    Good luck SG.

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Hello. May I just ask you which company you exchanged your money with and how to go about it please without you having to get to personal on this site.

    So this is a question for those who have already made the move. Just wondering if you had your time again, what would you do differently?

    Not looking for 'never have moved' sort of thing (and please if we can not have a Australia vs. UK heated debate), more of a 'wish I had taken x, y and z' or 'left the... behind' or done something in advance of the move.

    We've 6 month exactly today until we arrive so grateful for those with experience & thanks for any insights.

    STAYED PUT

    If you got sick from eating sausages then it would be because they were not properly cooked.  Any processed meat can make you ill if it is not heated right through.

    2. Hi All. After some basic, early advice. I'm an Australian citizen and have one parent still in the UK. I have a brother over there but my sister passed away a few months ago. My mum comes here pretty much every Christmas for 3 months and as I am more capable and willing to care for her than my brother is, it makes sense to try and get her here. She's 68 and owns her own home though does have some minor medical issues, mainly blood pressure and some arthritis, nothing too major. The different visas are quite confusing and was hoping someone could give me some advice.
      Thanks in advance, Steve.
       

    3. I agree with Quoll. But I can't imagine any self respecting 68 year old agreeing to move to Australia if they didn't want to go! I'm sixty four and have my visa, but it has been a very difficult decision to make the move - and I have my husband moving with me! I think it's lovely that you want to look after your mum, but it needs a lot of careful thought and planning as I'm sure you realise.
       
      The visa Quoll mentioned is the 143 and this is the one I have. We had to wait two years or so but I believe it is currently taking about 30 months or longer. You could also apply for the two year temporary visa with the same waiting time but half the cost, which can be replaced with a permenant visa after two years on payment of a further fee. The benefit of this is that you can stagger the overall cost.
       
      Your mum could apply for an onshore visa, i.e. While she is in Australia, and I believe it's possible to get a bridging visa to stay in Australia while waiting for this to come through. I don't know too much about onshore visas, but if you go to the parents thread you'll find any amount of information there. Also if you post a question there, someone will always get back.
       
      There is also the 103 offshore visa which your mum could apply for - costs very little, so that's an attraction, but the waiting time is at least ten years ...
       
      For the 143 visa your mum would have to pass a police check and a medical. She would also need a sponsor (probably you) who promises to support her if necessary for up to two years. You have to deposit a bond with the bank of Australia of (currently) $14,000, which is returned after ten years residence in Australia. interest is paid on the fourteen thousand in the meantime.
       
      The cost of lodging the visa (known as the first VAC- visa application payment) is a couple of thousand dollars. When your mum gets to the front of the queue and passes the medicals etc. she has to pay the second VAC. It was $43,200 last year but it may have gone up a bit since then.
       
      It seems like a formidable challenge, a pipe dream even, at the outset, but it can be done. One step at a time, and good luck to all concerned.

        From my years on the forum, this is by far the biggest age group who regret the move and many seem to be bullied into it by children in Oz. I suspect this is because culture shock increases with age - I know I find that and Oz is a big a culture shock as any of the other 12 countries I have lived. Visiting doesn't matter, as that's holiday mode, suddenly finding yourself having to make friends and learn every aspect of life again is damned hard. I know now at 47, after 13 countries there is no way on the planet I will move to 14.

         

         

         

        The sad part is that due to the costs, many I have met who are retired then find a move back to where they are comfortable is financially impossible

         

  13. Hi Mel

    Enquiry Regarding UK State Pension

    With the compliments of British Age Pensioner AllianceIf you have made only a few years contributions, or you have a long time to go before retirement date, then you should first consult our guidelines pension-guidelines.htm Voluntary contributions can improve your eligibility or increase the amount of pension, but remember that it is not a savings scheme. You do not get a refund if you die before pension age.

    The good news is that you do not have to be a British citizen. If you worked in UK for a few years it may be worth your while enquiring about your rights.

    Click on this link, enquiry-form.pdf, to bring up a form supplied by BAPA to assist you in enquiring about your eligibility for a British pension. Print it, fill it, and post it. Include it with a covering letter asking them to send you the appropriate application form.

    Fill out the form to the best of your ability, add any additional information on the reverse and post it to:

    International Pension Centre,

    Tyneview Park,

    Whitley Road,

    Benton

    Newcastle upon Tyne,NE98 1BA,UK

    It would be better not to start the process with an email, because they do not get the same attention as a letter. But you may wish to use email as a follow up measure.

    E-mail address: tvp.ipccsst@thepensionservice.gsi.gov.uk

    Note: The e-mail address appears to change frequently.

    You can download the official application form from the Pension Service website at http://www.thepensionservice.gov.uk/pdf/br1/br1apr09.pdf,

    but it would be better to use our form to ask them about your rights.

    Nurses... we need you Down Under [h=2]Australia - how to get here[/h]There are 3 ways you can live and work in Australia, with many visa options:

     

     

    1. Permanent Migration - as a Skilled Migrant
    2. Temporary Migration - for those who wish to improve their skills or experience
    3. Working Holiday - for those Registered Nurses 18-30 years old

     

    We have a recruitment partner in Australia, Iqualis - they are introduced further down the page.

    [h=2]Why Australia?[/h]nurse_with_surf_board_in_australia.jpgAustralia has a lot going for it, the climate - the fantastic blue skies, the sunshine, the cold beer, the excellent wine and food, and the white sandy beaches. Life doesn’t get much better!

    We are a cultural melting pot - since 1945 more than six million people from across the world have come to Australia to live. Today, more than 20 per cent of Australians are foreign born and more than 40 per cent are of mixed cultural origin No matter what your background you will feel welcome here.

    Australia is the sixth largest country in the world. It's about the same size as the 48 mainland states of the USA and 50 per cent larger than Europe, but has the lowest population density in the world - only two people per square kilometre.

    Australia’s coastline stretches almost 50,000 kilometres and is linked by over 10,000 beaches, more than any other country in the world. More than 85 per cent of Australians live within 50 kilometres of the coast, making it an integral part of our laid-back lifestyle.

There are excellent career opportunities with permanent and temporary work available in Australia. You can be in or outside Australia when you apply for a visa to work as a nurse.

    [h=2]Permanent and Temporary Visa Options for Nurses[/h]

    [h=3]Skilled Migration[/h]nurse-on-ward.jpgNurses may be able to migrate to Australia as skilled migrants.

    Since 1 July 2012 new independent and sponsored skilled visas are available. The Australian visa system, however, is complex and you should seek professional help.

    [h=3]Working Holidays[/h]If you are between 18 and 30, you may be able to come to Australia temporarily for a working holiday.

    For Nurses, this visa allows you to stay for 12 months and work as a nurse with any one employer for a maximum of six months, provided your work remains incidental to your holidays. Again, you should seek professional advice before applying for these visas or for a job on one of these visas.

    [h=2]Improving your Skills[/h]Nurses who do not have the qualifications to work as a nurse in Australia can do a bridging program to improve their skills. There are some temporary visa options available for you to do this.

    [h=3]Training and Research Visa[/h]For nurses to undertake a supervised, workplace-based training program in Australia. This option is good for training programs of three months or longer.

    [h=2]Nurses Sponsored by an Employer[/h]

    [h=3]Temporary Employment Visa (subclass 457)[/h]This is usually used for Registered Nurses to work in Australia for an approved business sponsor, for up to four years. Your accompanying family members can work and study in Australia.

    [h=3]Employer Nomination Scheme[/h]Overseas nurses under 50 years of age, with qualifications and work experience as a registered nurse, may be eligible for a permanent visa under this scheme. As the name suggests you require employer nomination for this visa.

    [h=3]Regional Sponsored Migration Scheme[/h]Overseas nurses younger than 50 years with qualifications equivalent to an Australian diploma level qualification (two years full-time study) or higher may be eligible for a permanent visa. Under this scheme, nurses will be sponsored by an Australian employer to work and live in regional Australia. The visa conditions include a mandatory 2 year contract with your employer.

    [h=3]Registering as a Nurse with the AHPRA - important[/h]In the same way that you are required to register with the NMC to work as a Nurse in the UK, in Australia you are required to get AHPRA (Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency) registration. Information and guidance on registration for overseas Nurses can be found on the AHPRA website.

    [h=3]English Language Requirements[/h]Nurses must now demonstrate a proficiency in English before their skills assessment or visa can be granted. In other words, you must demonstrate that you meet the English language threshold. This means that you must already have your English language test results before you lodge your application visa.

    Proof of English language proficiency is required by taking either the International English Language Testing System (IELTS) or the Occupational English Test (OET).

    Please download the Nursing & Midwifery "English Language Skills" guidance from the AHPRA website

    [h=3]Which English Language Test Should I Sit?[/h]Generally, you will be required to sit the International English Language Testing System (IELTS) test to assess your English language ability. Occupational English Test (OET) results may also be provided as evidence of your English language ability - a .

    [h=3]What is IELTS?[/h]IELTS is a test designed to assess an applicant’s English language ability. A minimum score of 7 is required in each of the four components (listening, reading, writing and speaking).

    IELTS examinations are available worldwide. Information on fees, available test dates and application forms are available on the IELTS website.

    See: www.ielts.org

    [h=3]What is OET?[/h]The Occupational English Test (OET) is a language test for overseas qualified health professionals. The Test assesses English language proficiency as it is used in medical and health professions. The OET is administered by the OET Centre seven times a year and in over 40 locations around the world. An overall pass with grades A or B is required in each of the four components (listening, reading, writing and speaking).

    The Test measures the language competency of health professionals who are seeking registration and the ability to practise in an English-speaking context. It is designed to ensure that language competency is assessed in a relevant professional context.

    [h=2]Why use a Registered Migration Agent?[/h]migration-agent.jpgWe advise using a Registered Migration Agent. You cannot work as a Registered Nurse in Australia without first registering with one of the National Boards. Previously Nurses were registered in individual states.

    We will shortly be adding the details of a number of migration agents that work with Iqualis.

    a Registered Migration Agent can assist you in the Australian nursing registration process, as well as provide professional advice and assistance in your visa application – even if you have had no previous work experience.

    Migration can be costly and time consuming; a Registered Migration Agent will ensure that the process meets legislative requirements at the time of application and can walk you through the process from start to finish.

    YOU need 4 things:

     

     

    1. Australian Registration
    2. Australian VISA
       

    3. Australian job
       

    4. Settlement into Australia

     

    [h=3]Australian Employment[/h]Registering your details with Iqualis means that they can match your details with available jobs. Being AHPRA registered means that you avoid the 4-6 weeks delay in the AHPRA registration process. This puts you in a stronger position to apply for jobs.

  21. Only just read this post and I am wondering why only Dads have problems. My son and his fiancée have fallen out with me they only live a n hour away but last year was my second Christmas on my own. I am an only one but sadly both my parents have passed away we certainly had our family problems mainly me liking being at the local Palais dancing and having fun so much I would miss the last bus at 10-30. But still couldn't for one second when living in the UK not being in there lives. It doesn't seem to take much for them to abandon you I am still trying to figure out what I did wrong (I think the problem is I just exist) :cute:
