No one can tell you if your hubby will get positive assessment or not , I dont know if they have internal control officer on the list before he assess he should know that his job should be closely related to what he studied because anything different vetassess will give him negative outcome.

You can be the main applicant by assessing as a customer service manager make sure you align your job to match the anszco task.

Vetassess assessment is $ 880
PT E is 50k as per the last time i wrote
Ielts is 75k
No payment for EOI but some states require you to pay for the nomination, some states don't ask for POF so the best is to find out which states are available for customer service manager.
Medical is 45k as per the last time i did mine with iom
Police character 5k
yellow fever cert 1k
Visa fee please check through Google
Flight depending on the airline through IOM budget 1.2m and above for family of 3 it might be less.

Few pictures from grocery shopping been raining heavily here for couple of days now.

First picture is meat shop and the second is the shopping centre close to my place

Not really they have different kind of rice some are too soft and some are tasteless, as a new comer you will try various rice in the shop till you get the one that suits you .

After various sampling a friend introduced me to this which is far better especially when you want to make Jollof.

This is my opinion though.

dustydee:

Please which one is naija rice again? Do you mean local rice?

This is the rice I use especially for jollof cos the one in all this other stores like Coles and co are too soft for my liking.

Let me go and stream Toowoomba to see how the place looks like.

Finally am back after 2 years of ban from uncle justwise that's why I kept mute, I done learn sir.

So I got 489 visa from Queensland and I reside in Toowoomba with my family of 5. We arrived late last year and the journey wasn't bad after all.

Before leaving Naija I joined all the Facebook groups that are available and I was lucky to get help from them, we rented our house from Nigeria because we didn't want to share apartment and also we are coming with 3 kids .It wasn't easy as we applied for up to 10 units and got negative response due to staying offshore .

I was sad at first till God intervened through someone in my Toowoomba mum group, they agree to rent us the unit only if we could pay 3 months rent in advance including bond oh boy we jump to the offer asap and thanks to austransaction that made the payment easy.
Note to someone that might want to try this always request to pay for extra months if possible.

The kids started school the next day and the school only ask for their passport and our visa type, since it's public school we only pay for the uniforms and books.

My last son is 3 years so he goes to family day care which cost us 10$ per hour and he started kindergarten this January and we pay $210 per forth night ( private school).

Jobs I was lucky to get a factory job within 2 weeks of our arrival not easy but it pays the bill and I am doing a certificate 3 for individual support so I can port asap.

My hubby was lucky to get a full time job with one of the Insurance firm within 2 weeks as well.

Cost of living is not so bad compared to the city that's the beauty of staying in a region Rent 290 -310$ per week for 3 bedroom unit, food we spent 150 - 200 weekly because the kids like jekuje and family of 5, electricity is quarterly at your own use , we came almost at the end of winter and we paid 550$ this year was 420$ ,Gas quartely is 120$.

Transport in region is terrible you will need your own vehicle and also almost all jobs here will ask you to have our own car so it's important to make an arrangement for one especially those coming with kids.

Weve met people who are wonderful and willing to help and other type too with God on our side we are taking it one step at a time.

The sun here is way more than naija and Toowoomba is cold too in winter but not as cold as some places.

Alot of activities for kids from dance class, karate,soccer, all sort na your money go talk and you can drive to Brisbane to buy naija food stuff will only take you 2 hours.

Here we have only one african shop run by Sudanese not everything you can get but be sure of red oil,black eye beans , hair extensions,some hair products etc. They also have farmersmarket that opens only on Sundays from 6am to 12pm(mostly Chinko people owns it) majority of people buy food stuff from there its better than some shops .You can buy fresh okra, corn, unripe plantain, ewedu leaf, fresh efo, sometimes yam but not the type we know and other vegetables.

For our naija type of rice,Semo , iced fish,we buy them from Indian shops around .

Most of the big shops in the cities are here and life in Tbay is slow and steady. If you like nightlife forget it as this place is more of
family orientated.

We have little naija community here like 15 of us compare to the city.

Sorry no pictures yet as I am on 10mins break, please ignore any errors in a hurry will put down more things if I remember them.
