Hi All,

We are an Indian couple living in Kuala lumpur Malaysia. I'm a working part-time as Technical Support and my husband working as an iOS developer here. We are planning to migrate to other country like Australia in future. So can someone please help me by providing the following information regarding Australian work, visa and living :

1. Which Visa my husband will probably get if company sponsors him (as a Software Developer with 6 years of Experience)?

2. Can I work on dependent Visa / Spouse visa in Australia? If can, is there any barrier for working hours or salary range?

3. How is the health care system in Australia for expats on Work visa ? I am aware about the government free healthcare for citizens and PR but I want to know for Expats does the Public hospitals charge like Private ? (cause in Malaysia its like that) :(

4. How is children's education ? Free?

5. How much is a decent salary for an Software developer with 6 years of experience? Which city in Australia has good IT?

I really appreciate your efforts for answering my queries. Many thanks! :)

Warm regards,
Priyanka.
