Cost of Living
Hi All
I am starting to research and complete state sponsorship form for Victoria and wonder if any of you can advise on any sites that can calculate the cost of living in Australia as compared to the UK.
thank you
Dawn

Re: Cost of Living
Your single largest expense will be your rent, you can use www.domain.com.au to look at prices in the areas you would like to move to.

Re: Cost of Living
So something that costs £10 will cost AU$22 - AU$25 in most cases. There are exceptions to this but overall you should be roughly right.
This applies to earnings too, if you currently earn £40,000 you should expect to earn AU$88,000 - AU$100,000.
