migrate to australia - advice please

Post new topic

pica

Hi guys,

I want to migrate Australia and I wanted to know if anyone could give me some advice.

My husband and my 2 children (they are under 3years old) are new zealand citizen, so i assume they dont need to apply for visa to live and work in australia. I'm not a nz citizen so i need to apply for temporary residence to allow me live and work in australia.

I need advice on how to access health care, child care and other social security benefit.

cheers.

Hi there

As I am not a migration agent I can't give advice, so please take this information as general information that I have learned over the last year.

Well depending on your age and that you meet the entry requirements there is a Special Category visa (SCV) which is a temporary visa electronically granted to New Zealand citizens, this is not a permanent residency visa, but a visa to help may you stay in Australia.

I have added this article to my blog today and hope it can help you and others :)http://www.ozarrivals.com.au/find-your-visa/
