Thumbs up Migrant Baggage Allowance

Just booked out tickets to Sydney with Singapore Airlines and asked if they had a migrant baggage allowance scheme. They do, if you have been granted a 'permanent' visa. I explained that we have a Long stay temporary business visa (457) and that apprently does not qualify for the 40kg per person allowance.

We are gonna stuggle to keep everything under 20kg!

Does anyone know any different?
