1. Anywhere from 6-12 months usually. Skill assessment needs to be done first, between a few weeks and a few months normally.

2. The University of Western Australia is a good university, but it would not be quite in the league of Oxford or Cambridge.
Australia's top universities are in the Group of Eight: http://www.go8.edu.au

There's no consensus on the "most highly ranked" university in Australia, but it would probably come to a toss-up between the University of Sydney, University of Melbourne or the Australian National University. But the University of Western Australia is pretty good and your son should be ok there. He could always go elsewhere for his postgraduate degree.

3. You will have to make first entry to Australia usually within 12 months of the earliest of medicals and police checks. Some people get only 6 months from medicals. A vacation will do. Whole family must validate.

4. http://www.immi.gov.au/allforms/pdf/968i.pdf and http://www.citizenship.gov.au

5. Perth house prices are much more expensive than they used to be (resources boom).
