Also just throwing it out there.....does anyone know what the average cost of moving to oz Thanks in advance Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alaska 507 Posted January 20, 2014 For the PR visa we are looking at it is just over $7000 for the visa application for the 4 of us (2 adults, 2 young children). Medicals and police checks are on top. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bonnie Durmic 10 Posted January 20, 2014 Hi It will depend on the visa - you dont say if its PR or 457 or other TR. The DIBP Pricing Table (complicated to say the least) is here: https://www.immi.gov.au/fees-charges/visa-pricing-table.htm Then you have skill assessments, english tests, medicals, police checks, translations (if and as applicable) If you hire an Agent our fees are extra to the above but considering the costs and that the government and other agency fees are non-refundable, its an expenditure worth considering. We charge: - 457 Nomination & Visa Combo $AUD1500 (whether single or family) or $AUD1000 just for the visa - 186/187 Nomination & Visa Combo $3500 (again single or family) or $AUD2250 just for the visa - 189/190 is $AUD500 for the EOI only and $AUD2500 for the visa & EOI - Family sponsored is $AUD3000 and we have current 10% discount special. Other agents I'm sure can advise their fees but I post here to give you an idea of the costs.

Guest Posted January 20, 2014 (edited) o god! a fortune! lol. we're going to take £15k with us. And think that's pushing it. i would say £6k as visas gone up. this include's ielts (done twice) skills assesment, skills points advice, paying for visa and police check and medicals.

Guest Ryan the wizard of oz Posted January 21, 2014 PR is (Permanent Residency) and the visa in particular is the 189 skilled independent Visa, however if it was a 190 State sponsorship Visa it would be exactly the same cost as the Australian government charge the same amount of $3520 for the main applicant, $1760 for any dependent over 18yrs of age & $880 for dependents under 18.
