Your arrival and settlement to Australia will be very easy with our Settlement services

Whether or not you have ever visited Australia, the idea of beginning a new life in an unfamiliar place can be a little daunting. We aim to make your arrival and settlement as easy and comfortable as possible, ensuring you have all you need to begin this next stage of the relocation process.

What is settlement?

Settlement is the period of adjustment that occurs following a migrant or refugee's arrival in a new country, as they become established and independent in their new society.​

The Settlement Experience​

Settlement experiences will vary for each migrant, depending on factors such as their English language ability, whether they have visited Australia before, whether they have family and friends in Australia and whether or not they are joining the labour force.

For some people the period until they become able to operate independently may be relatively short (six to twelve months), while for others it may last a number of years. Most people will need some help to settle quickly and successfully.

As soon as you arrive, you will need somewhere to live, money to live on and information on services available to help you get started, such as schools, transport and health services. Shortly after you arrive, you will also need access to employment and education. You may also need access to English language classes and help to form individual and family social networks. We can help you to settle in Australia successfully.
