Thanks for the link.. I had no idea it was that expensive to send my kids to school.. This could be a game changer for me the costs involved seem to be spiralling out of control Sent from my iPhone using PomsinOz

I could tell that it was quite a distance! I just love being near the coast! I will def take a look into those areas thanks. Castle Hill seems to be popular for young families too, I'm no snob but looking to reside in a safe area for my girls [emoji106] Sent from my iPhone using PomsinOz

Well, I think it's safe to say that you have just saved me £££'s with the health insurance, I will be taking this to my agent at the migration company. Thank you! I will come just under that income bracket so I can avoid that additional levy charge. The Northern beaches district looks ideal for my family and I but maybe to pricey initially so we are also checking out the Castle Hill district which also ticks the right boxes as I have two young daughters coming up to school age.. My partner is qualified in child care and is hoping to secure a part time position when we arrive, I have got a senior position with a company situated in, Silverwater who have sponsored me to come over. Thank you so much for the advice [emoji106] Sent from my iPhone using PomsinOz

Sounds Awesome and well done! I truly hope our move to Sydney goes just as well [emoji106] Sent from my iPhone using PomsinOz

That's extortionate dental prices! I will need some kind of insurance in place to support my 457 visa so I guess I need to take out the bare minimum and add on dental as an extra. I've never heard of, Happyhousesitters but I will def look into that. I've got a lot of work to do but all going to plan we should be over in Sydney around Sep/Oct time ? Thanks again Sent from my iPhone using PomsinOz

Thanks for the advice.. That's concerning regarding the rented accommodation as I was planning to do exactly that and Holiday homes for a month are very costly, What would you recommend? I've looked into Medicare, I thought this was private health insurance?? Kind Regards Tony Sent from my iPhone using PomsinOz
