The best place again in www.immi.gov.au
I read there the list of things you have to do when you arrive in Aus.
like medcare
TFN, centrelink registration, getting mobile etc etc...
Rent a house, cabel, internet connection, finding a job going shopping
Hope you can find it there or else there are guys who can provide you a list of information what to do....

Hey there,
Have a look at this - I don't think you can apply for one until your visa is validated, then you can either do it online or at any ATO Office. http://www.ato.com.au/individuals/keywordlist.asp?k=TFN
This is quite useful

Also go to Medicare office and register there, you just need to take your passport about 10 days after you arrive and ask to register.
If you search on mainly the Lifestyle & Culture forum there are lots of useful threads about what to do.
Hope this helps some
