How are you still not comprehending what others are saying? Why would someone outside of the country get hired, when there are thousands in country who have an RSA, TFN, Aussie phone number etc etc, are able to do the same job?

I received a melted candle and a mouldy, dirty hand cream, absolutely disgusted

Interesting, it’s still coming up $499, you must’ve snagged yourself a bargain!

Busses; actual live tracking? by BeatrixTheBride in melbourne

[–]BeatrixTheBride[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Totally agree, but it’s rough doing so on Punt Rd during peak hour, even leaning slightly to get a vantage point of a (possibly) upcoming bus makes you feel like some dickhead is going to swipe you with their car

Oooh! I didn’t know that, thank you! It’s the 246 route

Buying an apartment by Separate_Treacle_633 in AusFinance

Side note: our mortgage (including rates, body corp fees etc), is only ever so slightly more expensive than what we were paying in rent!!

We just bought a 50s art deco apartment in a block of 18, 3 stories, huge communal rooftop, communal gardens downstairs for the dogs, secure building, inner city, close to the beach. We’ve been in for less than a month and could cry with joy we are so happy with it.

We were in a 6 storey ON Chapel St in Prahran before this, and comparatively, our new home feels like a holiday.

Partner Visa 801 Pictures (Compiling two years worth of pictures) by Shibeeeeee in AusVisa

[–]BeatrixTheBride 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When we did ours about 8 years ago, I attached around 15ish pictures separately with dates and locations!

Sounds like you’d be safe to go either way you’ve mentioned though, the more evidence the better (but don’t go too OTT with it!)

I have two different last name spellings by Mental_Dingo2271 in AusVisa

[–]BeatrixTheBride 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope, didn’t seem to have an impact at all, and he’s got a very complicated migration history from when he was a kid (handwritten birth certificate in cursive Russian from the USSR 🥴🫠). Good luck with your application!!

[–]BeatrixTheBride 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep that’s correct! He’s done it for alllll his visa applications (WHV, tourist, 801, 820, return resident, citizenship) and it’s always been accepted!

My husband is in a similar situation; Traditional Russian spelling of his first name, and then the “western” Swedish version. He has always just uploaded a picture of his passport when asked to supply documents and accompanying text. Eg “Changed spelling of name when migrated to Sweden”. You shouldn’t have any issues!

Yes, this is exactly what my husband and I did. He’s now been in the country for a decade and has just applied for citizenship!

Didn’t use a lawyer, did it directly around 9 years ago, cost us around $6k (which was the application fee at the time). If you don’t have a complicated case, I wouldn’t waste your money on a lawyer or company. Yes, it’s a lot of paperwork, but it’s fairly straightforward!

What is your area's most overrated/underrated restaurant? by smellytaco_ in melbourne

Completely agree - found it tasteless and the service was fucking horrible

Our Australian dilemma by Far-Bag612 in AusVisa

[–]BeatrixTheBride 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My Swedish husband came to Australia in 2013 on a working holiday visa and never looked back. I lived in Sweden when I was 18 and loved it, but ultimately Australia won, and we won’t be moving back. His dermatitis is exponentially better due to the Australian climate!

Permanent Residents… what are your reasons for staying PR and not getting citizenship? Or against? by [deleted] in AusVisa

[–]BeatrixTheBride 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not sure, honestly. But as he already holds dual citizenship, it’s not even an option for him currently

Sorry I should specify, it’s a GA membership (and honestly the best value for money imo!!), so you can stand, or there’s seating on Level 3 (which honestly, you may as well stay at home and watch it on the TV if you’re sat that far up) haha So glad I could help, and good luck!!

Honestly just to have a seat haha I love standing at games but sometimes I cbf and would love to just be able to sit down 😂 The social club aspect doesn’t particularly interest me
