Radik Mukayev Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 Dear friends, We are family of four with two kids 9 and 13. We are holding visa 489 for four years and we are moving to Darwin , NT on June. Does anyone know if we are exempt of paying international tuition fees or not. Could not find any information about it. TIA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milliem Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 Hi You do not need to pay state school tuition fees on a 489. I found this on the NT government web site. The 489 is not listed here but has replaced the 475. I assume the fee exemption still applies. The best idea is to contact them for clarification Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radik Mukayev Posted March 21, 2015 Author Share Posted March 21, 2015 Thank you Milliem, I have got the answer from NTG. "There are no fees for your children to attend primary and secondary schools in the Northern Territory.

jpadda001 Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 As I have research on internet 489 visa holders do not have to pay school fee in govt schools in NT. free education provided by NT govt and they also issue 150 dollars voucher annually to spend on uniform and books.
