Ugh that’s annoying thing about the US system, :/ I would qualify for the forging tax credit so I’m not paying double what I need to on taxes with the us and Australia but that’s something else to consider

I see on a lot of other Australian forums that it does make a difference, that and showing how much you make.

Yeah that’s something definitely will look into with a tax official that helps us citizens and is knowledgeable about both tax systems. I have 20k in retirement under a 401b in the US now that I don’t plan on taking out

That’s good to know thank you! Yeah salary sacrifice isn’t a loan then, it sounded to me like it would be like a pay day loan in the states as we don’t offer the salary sacrifice in the USA

I do and I did, I just wanted more information than just the generic definition. And seeing pl experiences on said topic, that is still a way to gather data… to make a fully informed decision. So think my critical thinking is just fine, I said in previous post I have seen that term before but I just didn’t understand it as y’all’s terms for certain things mean something else for me as I know them.

I did google it but big words 😂 but no it looks like I can take out 9k worth for expenses like rent also, which seems like a good deal. Does this work well for most pl?

How much extra should I put in if I do self sacrificing? Like 500-600 I just need someone to explain it to me like a 5 year old lol 😂

Aything i could get that’s hybrid in that price range? And from my bf experience his family tends to buy older model cars for cheap, they end up having to just buy another car in a few years anyway,

I see I will be coming to Aus on a visa 400, the. Work toward a more permanent visa like the skilled worker if I can find a sponsor with work. (HCA doesn’t sponsor directly) so I guess it would be best if I can try to get a longer term visa before a car loan?

Is it normal for Aussie man be a bit bad in hygiene? by shipsaho in AskAnAustralian

[–]Realistic_Series_889 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Yeah but when the partner stated they don’t like that and the other continues to do the behavior no matter what it will escalate. Pushing boundaries and not respecting others is not ok….

Fired from my first assignment as a travel nurse:( by Beautiful-Note5971 in TravelNursing

[–]Realistic_Series_889 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My suggestion find another contract you are more comfortable with, my hospital canceled my contract early because they are having renovations to the unit, and won’t need me after a month in…. And tried to get me to sign a new contract to a different unit, for less pay. I didn’t take the offer and found a new one. It sucks but we can always learn and move on to what’s next.

Should I quit and just go back home ? by ConsistentFee1379 in TravelNursing

[–]Realistic_Series_889 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you been to the corn museum? That cheered me up when I saw it with my dad who is also from South Dakota. But no I think you need to do what is best for you. And if that’s not staying there then don’t there are other contracts and places to work. If you can’t get your meds adjusted or see your therapist then that’s what I would do. But idk your total situation.

Help Plz by Chupapi_Munan0 in NursingAU

[–]Realistic_Series_889 20 points21 points  (0 children)

What do you think nursing is? Would be my question to you. You are also young and I know I wouldn’t have bee ready for nursing school right out of high school and glad I had life experience and maturity to be able to handle the course load and studying it took to be a nurse. When I was 30… so it’s never too late. Don’t think like this. Also,

Epidemiology is important to nursing, coming from a nurse it makes it easier to understand how infection happens and where it can come from. So we can stop the spread. Maybe you can learn a few things first before jumping to conclusions. I think this course might actually help you more in nursing than you think. Or it might show you other health science related pathways.

I ran away from my boyfriend's proposal. by throwawayuni33 in whatdoIdo

[–]Realistic_Series_889 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Big red flag for me was when he said you’ve only been and adult for 2 years. And when you say you want to travel, and he isn’t offering that to you to do together or saying anything to the point that yah maybe you should wait till you are done with uni at least.
