Re: My dream has died

Most schools run after school care, which includes the school holidays. I don't know how much it costs though.

Re: My dream has died

I really admire you for going back when you don't want to, I don't think I would. (Well actually, I know I wouldn't :D)

Good luck to you Lynne, I hope everything turns out OK wherever you end up....

Re: My dream has died

That's rent and family assistance. I worked it out ages ago, and it came out based on $45k earnings that our rent would be nearly paid once every fortnight.

Re: My dream has died

You can get Family Tax Benefit A, and family tax benefit B if you are a single parent. Also Rent Assitance.

Re: My dream has died

It's means tested, so would depend on your wage and rent really. It's about $500 per fortnight on $45k (that's a wild educated guess :D)

Re: My dream has died

There's new developments both in the North and South with house and land packages for less than $200k :)

There's one advertisement, saying house and land from $198 per week. Haven't looked into...

Re: My dream has died

No snow here, if there was I wouldn't be here :D

If you have a PR 136 visa (or any other PR visa) then there is no waiting period for them.

Re: My dream has died

Jeff, my OH earns $56k per year and we can manage to pay our mortgage (we have $225k). I don't earn anything yet either.

The only difference I can see is that you would have to pay for childcare,...

Re: My dream has died

Well a few years ago (well more like 10 :D) I left my hubby because of something that happened, I was really stressed out and depressed and just needed some space. It wasn't that I didn't love him, I...

Re: My dream has died

But if you validate then at least you can sponor her for a spouse visa should her visa expire. So this way will give you all 5 years instead of the few months you have, :)

Re: My dream has died

Validate your visa with a holiday, that will give you and her some breathing space and hold the door open for a few years.

Go back to the UK, get another job and see how things work out over the...

Re: My dream has died

So sorry to hear that :(

Do you think she's got cold feet about the move, or do you think it's just all the stress of it? Either way, just give her a bit of space to clear her head, hopefully...
