New Zealand Immigrant Milk Fund

Many immigrants have heard that holders of New Zealand passports can enjoy Australian benefits. Is it true?/You don't say. However, this is an issue that many people who go abroad are interested in. Let's take a look at the New Zealand Immigrant Milk Fund! The following is the relevant information I have compiled. Welcome to reading.

Can I enjoy Australian benefits with a New Zealand passport?

First of all, New Zealand passport holders will get a special visa (referred to as 444 visa) when they enter Australia, which allows you to enter and leave Australia freely with a New Zealand passport. Apply for this visa:

1. Hold a valid New Zealand passport.

2. Physical health requirements

3. No criminal record

On this basis, you only need to fill in a simple Australian entry card to enter Australia smoothly. Besides, you don't need to apply for this visa in advance. You only need to show your passport and other relevant documents when you enter Australia. If you encounter special circumstances, you can apply after entering Australia ~

Visa holders can work, study, live and travel freely in Australia! So besides being free to enter and leave Australia, what other benefits can you enjoy?

New Zealand passport holders can enjoy Australian children's "milk money", newborn subsidies, children's vaccination subsidies, children's nursery subsidies, medical subsidies for low-income families, free medical cards for family doctors and public hospitals. If New Zealand citizens over the age of 65 are eligible to apply for a pension in New Zealand, they can apply to the Australian government for a pension, or even to the Australian and New Zealand governments at the same time, but the total amount does not exceed the Australian government's pension standard. Also, New Zealand citizens studying in Australia also enjoy the same tuition treatment as Australian citizens, but they are not allowed to apply for student loans in Australia.

"Milk gold". It is a subsidy granted by the government to help families with children raise their children. The amount of milk money is linked to the family income and the number of children (the first child can receive a maximum of 209 1.84 Australian dollars, and other children can receive a maximum of 1046.25 Australian dollars). This benefit can be applied immediately after entering Australia.

Child care allowance. If you have a child attending a kindergarten recognized by the government, the person who takes care of the child can apply to the government for this subsidy, and the amount of this subsidy is also linked to the family income. Each child has a subsidy of about 24 hours per week (including off-campus time, holiday time and kindergarten stage).

Medicaid card. This card is specially provided for low-income families. With this card, you can enjoy ultra-low subsidized prices when purchasing some medicines.

Medical subsidies for low-income families. Card for low-income people to get cheaper prescription drugs, ultra-low prices from the government or some private organizations subsidies.

Maternity and parental leave allowance. It will be paid within 18 weeks after childbirth or adoption, and used to subsidize the loss caused by parents' inability to work after childbirth or adoption.
