pfe12 Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Hi, i seem to be struggling to find holiday insurance as I am on a 457 visa, the insurance companies don't class me as an Australian resident? Has anyone had the same issue or know of a company where this is not an issue? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottsam Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Have you tried world nomads.com.au....I used them for my husband. He arrived in Oz before us but we had a holiday to Hawaii booked. I phoned these people and used them although I did not need to make a claim. Phone them and ask for advice first though! (I believe that in a medical emergency he would have been sent back to England rather than Oz though.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottsam Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 It's a total pain in the arse being on a 457 isn't it! A lot of things like this you don't find out till you're actually in Oz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
