Dont leave financial matters to chance
Moving from the UK to Australia is expensive, and your financial plans need to take absolutely
everything into account, factoring in the costs of obtaining visas, as well as moving you, your
family and your belongings to the other side of the world.
It’s also important to understand what your finances will look like once you’re living in
Australia. Factors such as property and rental prices, as well as day-to-day living costs like food
and retail prices, the costs of public transport or running a car, can vary quite significantly
between different Australian locations; websites like Numbeo can be useful in researching
relative costs of living in various cities.
As a final point, remember to look into your tax liabilities in both Australia and the UK, if
applicable, as this may influence factors such as where you choose to hold savings and
investment accounts.
Keep your children involved
If you have children, be sure to involve them as fully as possible in planning and arranging every
step of your move. Children can be particularly sensitive to a house move – never mind a lifechanging
relocation to the other side of the world. Asking for (and, perhaps more importantly,
listening to) their opinions and preferences can be a great way to keep them feeling engaged
and positive throughout the process. That way, the move is something in which they are
actively participating, rather than something that’s being imposed upon them.
To help when moving with children, take a look at our list of children’s books about moving
house to help them understand what’s going on.
Decide what you need to take with you
Be practical – even ruthless – about what you need to take with you when you move. Moving
large items of furniture or dozens of boxes of ornaments, books, clothes, toys etc. from the UK
to Australia can be an expensive business, and in some cases it makes more sense to buy new
items in Australia once you get there. In the months and weeks prior to your move you should
make efforts to go through and, where appropriate, thin out your belongings. Decide what can
stay (for example, if you intend to let out your current property rather than selling up), what
can be sold, what can be donated to charity, and what you want to take with you.
