[QUOTE="Eohit vakua, post: 102180, member: 3016"] Don't know if this information going to help someone or not. Just sharing my experience. [LIST] [*]So I left my489 Tas visa for 190 NSW visa and moved here. Transportation is expensive here. I got enrolled in college. If your college is eligible you might want to apply for concession OPAL card which cuts down your transportation price to almost half. [*]And acc to my experience when you got enrolled in any college, you are not eligible for HECS HELP but you are eligible for CSPs which is the subsidised fee which you have to pay upfront to college. Govt pays 60% of your fees and you just have to pay 30%. [*]You can't drive in NSW with international license after 3 months of getting PR. Within 3 months you have to apply for NSW license. For that you have to pass DKT then again you book for driving test. Then you would have NSW license. [*]If your workplace or college requires you to have any kind of vaccination, MEDICARE won't cover that. tHEY said you'll have to pay for that. [/LIST] That is all I have to share until now. Also people with PR I suggest you to share your experience and benefits which we can get. Thanks [/QUOTE]
