EA form definitely from employee...

there's a history in e-hasil for the BE form you submitted and paid but i think it only has a history of 2-3 years

some more you need to translate these forms

by the way... did you submit bank statements and payslips?

Maybe could make a call to LHDN ask for it. i'm sure they have a copy. If not, then put some cream on the face to make it thicker to ask from ex-company....that's what i did...

Statements no, I did submitted payslips.
For the e-hasil, the form itself has English in it. Let me try sending it to agent see if it's enough to prove.


This is when leaving my ex employer on a good term is really useful...which I did

I think you mean your BE form right. Coz I had to submit my BE forms, not the EA. BE you can ask LHDN for copies. E-filing is pretty aesome because they let you download it after submission.

Opportunity to work in Australia

https://www.border.gov.au/Trav/Work/Work/Sk...tions-lists/SOL

Sorry not an opportunity to work at all.
More like an opportunity to get a skilled migration visa and get the rights to work.

Like others say, the SOL does not truly indicate job availability at all.
Many new migrants find it xtremely difficult to find a job, despite it being in SOL.

Yes agree. Getting visa is like pre entrace ticket. Where you will get the job thats another mattet at all.

oic.. SOL will not guarantee a job
by that.. getting hired directly from australian employer has higher chance than SOL?

Getting PR is just the first hurdle, the real challenge is settling down in relative comfort.

getting hired directly from Ozzie company on working visa, still got chance. however, are u getting the right wages is another.
visa 457 company has to pay tax based on income $95000/annum. that's what the rule is. unless your skills is hardly get here.
my company so far employed 5 workers from china who're highly skilled.

Is A$70k p.a (include super), in your opinion; sufficient for a family of 3 to settle down comfortably there?
Disposable should be around $40k+ (i.e A$3.5/mth)

very subjective as different people have different levels of comfort

yes cause for a famlily of 3 you should be getting around additional 800 a month from center link in the form of FTB.

Another thing is our accent. You can have the qualification but many of them find it difficult to understand especially freshies.

i started with 65k/annum exclude super, a family of 4, getting centrelink support. hmm, comfortable ok just need to keep an eye on every cent u spend.
my case during that time in perth as below:-

rent (2x1 apartment) - $300/wk
electricity - $150/fortnight
groceries - $150/wk (got salmon/cod, pork, beef, fruits, veges, milk....almost everything. enuf for whole family for a week)
clothing - $100/mth
fuel - $50/wk
phone (2 mobile) - $120/mth
internet - $80/mth
water - none...i dunno why coz no bill and i chase agent, they have no idea too....

income after tax is $1250/wk after tax
Thank God that groceries and clothing is cheap here...

Depends very much on the city. on 70K per year, yr take home is $967 per week (exc. FTB and rental assistance).
In Syd even a 2br apartment in a cheap (ie rough and far from city) area is $400 per week...
Other cities u can get by with cheaper rent.
@Nemesis calc is quite conservative for the rest...fuel, phone, internet, water depends largely on how u use or how u buy.

well, that's not conservative as this is reality. With that salary and expenses for 1 year.

Whats the medical like when u get sick?

Meaning if the employee has annual salary more than 95k, company need to pay extra tax?

Medicare covers the cost of GPs.
Emergencies and public hospital (with long wait time) is covered.

Private health insurance (to cover non urgent surgery, optical, dental etc) is exxy. Approx $250 pm.

Come to think abt it this was not one of the costs listed above.
