Is this expensive can we get this cover as a family or is it separate Sent using Poms in Oz mobile app

Husband's new job are providing him with a car so we won't need to ship it over. Also he's not too sure if he's got a job to come back to either at the end of the year. I'm just hoping that he chooses to go out for the year so we can experience the lifestyle etc but only he can make that decision. Sent using Poms in Oz mobile app

So if we rent we pay obviously the rent which includes rates and then utility bills any other extras we need to think of Sent using Poms in Oz mobile app

So we may struggle for a bit until I get a job. Hopefully husband's new company will pay the accommodation for 6 months (we've been cheeky and asked) which if they say yes will be a big help. Sent using Poms in Oz mobile app

Is it expensive to use public transport in Melbourne. How much is it for buses or trans. Can you buy a weekly/ monthly ticket if so does it work out cheaper Sent using Poms in Oz mobile app

Is it easy to get a job in Melbourne. Ideally I would be looking at an admin job with hours around school hours. I would be coming on a 457 visa with a 2 year limit. Any advice welcome x Sent using Poms in Oz mobile app

We have been on the tax calculator aus and just have one question to ask. It may be stupid but I'll ask anyway. We're looking to come out on the new 457 visa for a year paid for by my husband's work. When looking at the wage calculator site you get the option to tick resident or non resident. Which do we tick. Told you it was a stupid question [emoji87] Sent using Poms in Oz mobile app

Thanks collie. The $85k includes superannuation. We would be coming on the new 457 visa that allows us to stay for 2yrs. We're not too sure what area yet just waiting on confirmation. Sent using Poms in Oz mobile app

My husband has been offered a secondment for 12 months in Melbourne with a salary of 85.000 dollars. Will this be enough for us ( we have an 8 yr old son) to live on. I will hopefully be looking to get a job. We have been told we will get a serviced property for the first 3 months and then we would have to rent for the other 9 months. Any advice would be helpful as we know it is rather expensive in Australia. Sent using Poms in Oz mobile app

We are coming out on a 12 month secondment and we were wondering if someone could let us know what fees we are likely to pay for a child in primary school. We would be looking at state schools. Sent using Poms in Oz mobile app

My husband has been offered a 12 month secondment. I was wondering on the new visa would I be able to come out and work on it, or do I have to apply for my own visa Sent using Poms in Oz mobile app
