Eg.

Rental --> $300 per week
Food --> $150 per week

Internet --> ??

Can someone please help me figure out how much would the electric, mobile and internet fees will sum up to? Really need help And if there's anything i miss out please tell me

Firstly, im not even complaining to you.

Secondly, you are Mr/Mrs Nobody to ask me to grow up and feed myself. U know nothing about me.

Thirdly, im here to seek a community to share thoughts together. Not here to receive cold replies. You can just ignore me if you do not wish to give info or reply me. Im not begging.

Wow u all receive u're visa so fast after medical checkup. I did mine on 31 of Dec, still waiting for news Hopefully nothing went wrong

Apply online will get reply through email once its done rite?

woot woot my visa took 5 working days from the day they sent in my medical report >.< so worried.

I check my status they said "Applicant Approved", but i check my email there's nothing from them. Am i suppose to receive an email from them and is the visa considered done?

Oh thx . There's a visa number on my status page and i guess that's the one u're referring too

I guess i'll have to wait patiently for the email, getting very excited to fly over now

How much cash should i carry along with me when my first arrival to Melbourne City? ( No Accomodation yet ).

Yea im going to stay in a hotel for 2 night to search for accomodation.

I actually thought of bringing more than AUD500 cause im not sure about the rental deposit over there. Open bank account CoE also can rite? Because my enrolment date is on the 18 feb but im planning to touch down on Melbourne on the 10 to search for accomodation, i dun think my student card is ready.

Im going to RMIT City Campus 2 months rental fee means around AUD2000, so i bring AUD3000 enough rite? I mean this money is to help me survive for one week if i happen to open my bank account later.
