Safety, freedom and economic growth are a few of the many benefits of Australia. As South Africans we focus on employment and power, however, life has so much more to offer as an Australian permanent resident.
- Your New home
As an Australian permanent resident, you are not limited to where and how long you can live in the country. Considering it would take 27 years to visit a new beach every day in Australia, this will give you time to enjoy the lifestyle and explore the country.
- Family
Once you have made Australia home and you have a permanent status you are allowed to sponsor a family member to enter Australia. There are many different visa pathways to explore, but leave that to us. All you need to focus on is creating an incredible home, and doing what you love.
- Medicare
As an Australian permanent resident you have the option to enrol in a Medicare system with access to vast medical health coverage…for FREE. There are always T&Cs however subsidised services are affordable.
- Centrelink
Centrelink is a social welfare system applicable to all permanent residents and citizens. It’s an advanced online system in which you can claim grants for sickness, unemployment, studies and even childcare. It is easy and efficient.
- Home owner grant
Starting over in a new country with a new currency can be challenging. Australia offers a homeowners grant of AUD$10 000 to the first homeowners to purchase a property if its value is AUD$750 000 or less.
- Tertiary educational loans
Permanent residents have access to the Higher Education Loans Programs (HELP), to acquire a loan in a public institution. HELP allows students to “borrow” the finances they need to progress in their studies, only need to pay it back when they have reached an income threshold of AUD$46 620.
- Growing your family
As an Australian permanent resident, your children born in Australia are born Australian citizens. Beyond a powerful passport, your children can grow up in a safe environment with access to incredible social benefits.
Australia is improving lives through efficient governance. Their demand for labour is constantly increasing as the economy grows. These benefits could apply to you within an 18 – 24 month period, all we need is to see if you qualify.
