[nadia and scott]

hi there everyone, just a quick post!! this is day 4 after arriving on new years day. We flew with emirates who were great, flight was not as bad as i thought it would be. We are staying in Secret Harbour till sunday then move up to Clarkson. Everything good so far, woke up this morning to thunder and lightning, now its glorious sunshine!! Viewed a property in Kinross yesterday - not impressed, it looked like a squalor. shame as the outside and neigbourhood looked lovely. Going to get passports stamped tomorrow as this needs to be done for transferring drivers licence. So much to organise and enjoy ourselves at the same time!! Kids are loving it as are we. so far so good!!

Hi there , the passport needs stamped if you want to get an australian drivers license. Went up to perth city today in and out in 5 mins job done, then off to have a cuddle off a koala bear!!! Medicare tomorrow!!

when you register for medicare you will get a paper print out temporary one. The staff will probably tell you that you can use this to get your licence but infortunately you can't, you need to wait for your actual card to come through.

Hi Nadia and Scott,

I'm arriving in Perth in February and will also looking at getting my drivers licence transferred. Please could you enlighten me as to what it means to 'get your passport stamped'?

Good luck with your new lives!

Thanks,
Paul

Hi paul, its really straight forward you need to have your visa sticker put in your passport, you can either do this at australia house in london or at 836 wellington street west perth 6005, it took 5 mins. The drivers license requires this and 2 forms of ID inclusive of medicare card and bank card. will let you know how that goes. Where are you locating to?
