Moving from Chennai (India) to Adelaide shortly. Request help...

Hi, I got my South Australian State Sponsored (subclass 489) visa approved last week. I'm planning to relocate to Adelaide shortly. As I don't know anyone in Adelaide I'm here to ask  help. Is there any help centers for people like me where I can talk (over phone) and get some help? Or any Indian who is kind enough to share their contact number to clarify my doubts would be really appreciated.

Awaiting your reply

Best you do an online search to see if there is an indian community, church etc in Adelaide. I feel sure you will find something. Just type in 'indian community Adelaide 'into google and see what comes up.

Google ' budget accommodation adelaide ' and you will find what you are looking for.

Welcome to the forum 

For jobs you could try www.seek.com.au
For cost of living etc www.numbeo.com  This will then give you an idea of how much you will need to get by until you find a job.

You should also read other posts on the Australia forum as there are many suggestions and ideas that may help you. Also you should Google search for Indian communities or clubs in Adelaide then contact them for assistance.

You will not get a job immediately on arrival. Unemployment is rising here.

For jobs try www.seek.com.au  or simply Google search for them.

Cost of living is high so money wise you will need enough to cover you for at least 6 months until you get work.

Hi Ravi, good to hear that you have received a positive reply, would be able to assist you more and guide you properly, send me ur email address I will write to you in brief.
