1. Visa and Immigration Notes
<\/strong><\/h2>\n

As migration lawyers Brisbane professionals, it\u2019s no surprise this is our top priority<\/a>.\u00a0 All your other preparation is for nothing if your visa is denied, so make sure it\u2019s organised before you head for Australia.\u00a0 Migration lawyers in Brisbane can be hugely helpful with this process, to make sure all your ducks are in a row and to give yourself the best possible chance of a successful application.<\/p>\n

Make sure you have plenty of time left before your passport expires \u2013 it can be more difficult to renew when you\u2019re overseas and it\u2019s better to be safe than sorry.\u00a0 We recommend taking care of it before you go.<\/p>\n

2. Banking and Money<\/strong><\/h2>\n

You\u2019ll need an Australian bank account \u2013 take care of this before you arrive or as soon as possible afterwards.\u00a0 Further, keep an eye on exchange rates in the lead up to moving to Australia to find the best time to send money over.<\/p>\n

3. Travel and Health Insurance<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Travel and health insurance are a must!<\/p>\n

Even if you\u2019re eligible to apply for Medicare (Australia\u2019s universal health care program) under your visa, you\u2019ll still need health insurance cover until it\u2019s finalised.\u00a0 If you don\u2019t have it, you\u2019ll need it.\u00a0 Don\u2019t tempt fate!<\/p>\n

4. Accommodation<\/strong><\/h2>\n

This can be fun or stressful, depending on your situation and your personality!\u00a0 You might be looking for temporary accommodation until you find your feet in Australia, or for something more permanent.\u00a0 Either way, you need somewhere to stay when you first arrive.<\/p>\n

5. Work<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Moving is always an expensive endeavour and moving internationally even more so!\u00a0 Make sure your CV and references are up to date and ready to go before you arrive, so you can hit the ground running when you arrive in Australia.\u00a0 Remember \u2013 this depends on the conditions on your visa.\u00a0 Different visas have different rules around working, if you are unsure contact\u00a0 one of our migration lawyers in Brisbane<\/p>\n

When you arrive in Australia, you\u2019ll also need to apply for a Tax File Number (TFN).\u00a0 This connects you in to the Australian tax system and you\u2019ll need to give it to your employers.<\/p>\n

Moving is always an expensive endeavour, but moving internationally even more so.\u00a0 Get your CV up to date and ready to apply for local jobs and hit the ground running.\u00a0 (Remember, this depends on the conditions of your visa \u2013 different visas have different rules around working).<\/p>\n

6. Travel for You and Yours<\/strong><\/h2>\n

This is when it starts to feel very real!<\/p>\n

Organise flights for yourself and anyone else moving to Australia with you.\u00a0 Make sure any pets are booked in separately and meet the travel requirements for immunisation, health checks and quarantine.<\/p>\n

7. Make copies of everything<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Make sure you bring all your documentation with you to Australia \u2013 there are plenty of things you\u2019ll need it for and it makes everything much easier if you have everything on hand.\u00a0 Bonus points if you get your copies certified! The migration lawyers Brisbane specialists definitely agree with this.<\/p>\n
