Migration to Australia

You have invested in Australia and now want to call Australia your home. Your decision to migrate is one of the most important decisions in your life and you deserve to have it handled properly. Yours and your family's futures are at stake - make sure you place it in the hands of professionals.

Healy Consultants is one of the few consultancy practices in Singapore that offers a holistic approach to your migration to Australia including personal, business, financial and investment needs required by the new migrant.

Too often migrants arrive and are left to fend for themselves. They rely on friends and relatives to show them the Australian scene and they take advice from friends and relatives. The result is that sometimes they end up with homes in suburbs they may not like, businesses they may not want to be in and schools for their children that may not be suitable. We know all about the problems you are likely to come across in Australia - we have been there ourselves. Healy Consultants is all about working with you to make sure you do not make the same mistakes we did.

Our migration to Australia services include:

• Assist you obtain your Australia visa and compliance with visa requirements;
• Relocating your funds to Australia and/or establishing an investment portfolio;
• Establishing and/or purchasing a business in Australia;
• Advising on international and Australia tax rules. Your choice of business structures may affect your residency status and the amount of tax you pay;
• Purchasing residential or commercial properties;
• Advice is provided by our Australian affiliate, comprising migration agents, financial advisors, accountants, real estate agents, relocation agents, business brokers and finance brokers. Our Australian migration agents must pass strict examinations and be registered with the Migration Agents Registration Authority (MARA) in Australia. The migration agent in our affiliate Perth Office is a qualified Chartered Accountant and Registered Company Auditor and is therefore uniquely placed to assist business migrants.

This unique combination of advisors has been initiated as a result of the very real issues and problems facing migrants such as:

• Lack of knowledge of the Australian business economy and environment;
• Emotional ups and downs experienced;
• Migrants targeted by agents who are more interested in earning their commission than looking after you;
• Unprofessional advice i.e. friends and relatives, etc;
• Difficulties in knowing where to obtain information - assuming you know what information you should have.

There have been many changes made to the rules of Australia Subclass 457 Visas (Standard Business Sponsorship) – which is for employers who would like to employ overseas workers to fill nominated skilled positions in Australia. The key aspects are:

• The Temporary Skilled Migration Income Threshold (TSMIT) is currently $47,480 per annum.
• Applicants from high-risk countries in trade occupations and chefs are required to undergo a formal skills assessment
• Increased language requirement for non-native born English speaking applicants in certain occupations

Healy Consultants would be happy to advice you further on your visa application and migration matters.
