Cheaper Migration to Australia due to softer Australian Dollar

During 2014, the Australian Dollar has weakened against a number of currencies meaning that it is now cheaper to migrate here than it is has been since late 2010.  The Australian dollar is now 10 percent cheaper compared to a basket of other currencies than it was at the start of 2014.  It is currently trading at 89 US cents.  This means that when you convert foreign currency to the Australian Dollar, you automatically receive a discount of 10 percent based on the foreign exchange rates.

This discount will apply to all aspects of the expense of migrating to Australia.  The government charge for the visa, the migration agent’s fees, the cost of buying property in Australia and other living expenses when you are here.  If you want to migrate to Australia but had previously been concerned about the cost, it is good to keep in mind that it has become a lot cheaper recently.
