ACT Do They Impose School Fees on 457 visa
Have emailed the department bu I'm no sure what their response time is, was just wondering if anybody knew the answer whilst I was waiting?
I know that schools charge for this and that but I'm unsure as to whether the state charges too!
We are on a Temporary Business entry (Long Stay) visa (Subclass 457)
Thanks in advance

Depends on what state you are going to.
In WA its just small basic fee for materials that everyone pays. Unless of course you got to Private/Catholic Education.
However other states do have fees.

I believe The ACT does not impose school fees.
I friend of mine had a hard time getting his kids into a school there and when the 457 was up the kids were asked to leave, until they could prove they had another 457 or a valid right to stay.
I suggest you call up a school and confirm as this information is 18 months old. Most schools will beable to help as there are a lot of international people living there.
BTW Canberra is a fantastic place to bring up kids.
