Set up a bank account before you leave:
https://www.commbank.com.au/moving-to-australia/banking.html
CommBank allows you to open an account up to three months before you arrive. You can open an Everyday Account with Student Options online in around 5 minutes and get your bank details straight away. This means you can:
Transfer money into your new account immediately (a fee may apply)
Check your balance online
No monthly account fees while you study
Although you can transfer money into your account before you arrive, until you have visited a branch and had your ID checked, you will not be able to withdraw money from the account. Keep this in mind for organizing things such as the bond for your new accommodation, or for paying your University fees.
What to do when you arrive:
Visit a CommBank branch as soon as possible after you arrive to order your debit card, which you can use in store and online. Your debit card will be sent to the Australian address that you give us.
What should you bring to your local branch?
- Your passport
- Your student ID or proof of enrolment (including start and end dates for your course)
- Your Tax Identification Number (TIN) for each country of foreign tax residency
- A copy of your welcome letter
Once you’ve been identified in branch you’ll have secure online banking through NetBank and banking app.
While you wait for your card to be delivered to your new address, you’ll be able to get cash out immediately using Cardless Cash.
My friend and myself had applied for work visa, and believe me the process was extremely smooth. All the details about the VISA and the processing fees were clearly discussed prior. The support system is truly efficient, all the doubt were answered in a very profession manner. I highly recommend Mr.Amit and the whole team of VISAINFO, for consultation regarding various visa applications.
Thanks for visa info team for helping me to get my PR
My wife and I are overjoyed to see the positive outcome for the sibling visa application which was indeed very complex in nature and had to applied again, after it was rejected the last time.
We wish her all the very best for her in all walks of her life.
Regards,
Mahesh and Sree
Trusting someone blindly and following their instructions can be challenging, but Simran's guidance and support made all the difference. Her guidance and instructions were spot-on throughout the 4-year journey filled with hurdles and challenges.
Simran deserves heartfelt appreciation for her guidance and support throughout the challenging four-year process. She proved to be a reliable and invaluable resource for me. My gratitude towards Simran is well-deserved, as her expertise played a significant role in helping me achieve this milestone.
I express my immense gratitude to Simran for her invaluable assistance. I am enjoying this well-deserved success, because of Simran.
Thanks again AMIT BAIJAL and FAISAL KHAN
