I have a son who is hearing impaired. I wish to migrate to Australia for his education and future.?
I am a Malaysian Christian living in Singapore. Desperately seeking job and help to migrate to Australia to provide education and better future for my son who is hearing impaired. He has done a cochlear implant and currently studying in Singapore. I cannot afford to stay on in Singapore as the properties are too expensive for us to rent or buy. How and what can I do to be able to move to Australia. I have 12 years of working experience in service industry. 6 years in food catering and 3 years working experience as a dental nurse.

First you will need to apply for a job in Australia, and you can search through goggle on job search in http://www.careerone.com.au/sa-jobs/science, and there are many more just type in your job type. Then when once you have confirmed a job, apply for visa and get information on housing and so on. Listen computer today has made everything so simple, and you have information on your fingertips. Just the matter of getting the courage to get started.

If your son is classed as disabled you might have a problem - you will need to prove that he will not be a burden on society (not require any medical or social help etc). A friend of my fathers was refused entry from the UK because of a deaf child, despite bringing in over 500K with him, it wasn't enough for the authorities to prove he would be supported for the rest of his life..

There is a possibility you might be denied residency - there was a recent case in the news about a German doctor who had moved to Australia to work in a rural town. He has a child with Down Syndrome and his application for PR was not approved because they deemed the child a burden on the health care system. Health care is free in Australia to citizens and PRs. Because of the outrage it provoked, they were later allowed to stay. In any case, I can understand where you're coming from. You never know until you try. All the best.
