Infodesk for new Goan migrants

WELCOME TO AUSTRALIA!

Dear Friends,

GOA NSW takes great pleasure in welcoming you and your family to Australia.

Taking the bold decision to migrate from your country of birth, leaving family and friends behind, can be one of the toughest decisions one will ever make in a lifetime.

We as naturalized Australians, can completely understand the reasons for your decision, and we commend you for the proactive steps you have taken – for the improvement of your family circumstances and a to foster a better future for your loved ones.

We invite you to join our association, where you will be warmly welcomed and will have an opportunity to make new friends from the same cultural background.

As part of the various initiatives to support new migrants, the members of the executive committee have put together a “Migrant’s Support Guide”, to support you with essential information and insights on settling down in Australia.

This information will help you with the planning phase of your journey, and will provide you with local information regarding the key aspects of settling down, such as – planning your arrival, forex requirements, searching for accommodation, job search, web links to government agencies etc.

You can access this guide by following this LINK.
