bring in AUD5000 will give you peace of mind....alone

How long do you think you can survive with AUD5000 for a single dude, rent room, no lavish lifestyle just venturing out by myself looking to settle down and find job in let's say, Perth?

Tip: Learn how to drink and socialise with the Aussie They will feel that you are part of their family instead of a foreigner

Could last awhile.. eat mee goreng and egg everyday, 20aud a week. Rent a room for about 400 a month. Take bus to city? 15 bucks a week.

So I'd say 5k can stretch awhile.

This doesn't include u gonna buy cars, fuel, rego, insurance and stuff.
u definitely need a car here coz public transport is hopeless. Budget $2000 get a car, pay rego maybe couple hundred and fuel say $50/wk should be more than enuf.

Depends where you live and work as to whether u need a car.
If in inner Sydney or Melb, parking is super duper exxy n driving to work is a hindrance.
In Sydney inner city accommodation comes with no parking inc.
Best bet is to live near train interchanges if u r able to train it to work....

Well, i lived in Petersham and Chippendale for couple of years. 15 years ago the rent for 2 x 1 apt already 450/week.
I dunno how much is it today. Sydney train network pretty good and as you said depends on where you live.
Car will get you commute else where (besides work of course). Some office where you can't catch a train.
Anyway, it's up to their call to get a mop maybe?

This. I spent quite some time studying and lepak-ing after graduating there and honestly I have seldom faced any discrimination. In fact some of my closest friends are Oz peeps! Just gotta blend in, mix around and you'll find most of them to be the friendliest and most fun loving ppl around.

I heard they are still short of nurses. http://www.australia-migration.com/page/Op...s_for_Nurses/39

That is quite true. Oz govt has been subsidising local students in nursing courses for a few years now.
Only thing is if u r qualified in MY, u may have 2 b requalified again in Oz.
Salary for normal RN is also not high...
Advantage is stable income, ability to live almost where ever u want that has hospitals, generous super & benefits scheme.

Dear just for sharing, all is approximate amount as i'm too lazy to go through my bank statement. So just based on my memory

My skill assessment for CPA around AUD 450
Meds check up RM 290
English Exam (Ielts)  AUD 330/ RM 750
Pearson AUD 320 / RM650
Police clearance Aust: AUD 45
Malaysia cert good conduct: RM 20
Birth cert i get it translated at the Seremban High Court @ translator: 4 copies for RM 50 including certified (quite pricey for Seremban small town)
All my other documents is certified by my migration agent so it is free.
If it is not mistaken if you are in Msia only limited occupation can certified documents.
However, if you are in Aust quite a lot of occupation can certified for you.
Migration agent, Pharmacist, Doctor, Bank Manager, police officer, post officer or etc.
If you have friend you can get it for free too.

if possible, and if you have no special requirements or conditions... DIY, its much cheaper and faster than agents

Thank you for suggestion. Roughly what's the difference in terms of cost and time compared to agent?

Would it be a big gap?. Rough estimation cost & time will do. No need exact

Dont quite remember what are all the requirements but there is a checklist you can download from the website.

The application process is rather straightforward, they detailed the steps and have checklists for all the required documents.
