The costs of migration can vary a lot and there are many factors to consider.
- From person to person and from family to family - there are always individual circumstances and factors that can play a role in the overall costs.
- Each migrant has his or her own standards and requirements. One migrant takes up residency in Sydney, the other in Adelaide - all of these factors greatly influence the cost of migration.
- Visa costs also vary a lot, and depends on the specific visa class - costs can be from AU$ 200 to as much as AU$ 64000 (for a parent contributory visa).
- In most cases, the total visa costs (including all government fees as well as ASA fees) are +- AU$ 5000 for a family unit.
When looking at migration costs, there are four major costs to consider:-
- The migration application costs
- The physical move to Australia (air fares, entries to validate the visa, shipping costs of household goods etc)
- Cost of settling in Australia (rent, buying cars etc)
- Other discretionary and misc costs
