Certainly! When planning for your child’s studies in Australia, it’s important to consider the living expenses as required by the Australian Government for visa purposes, as well as realistic monthly costs for daily life.

As per the Australian Government (2025):
- Required Living Expenses: AUD 29,710 per year
This is the minimum amount you must show as proof of funds for a student visa.
- Monthly Estimate: Approximately AUD 2,476 per month (AUD 29,710 ÷ 12 months)

What does this cover?
This budget is meant to cover essential living costs such as:
- Accommodation (rent, utilities)
- Food and groceries
- Transportation
- Study materials
- Personal expenses
- Health insurance

Additional Costs to Consider:
- Tuition fees (varies by university and course)
- Initial setup costs (deposit, furniture, etc.)
- Travel and visa application fees
- Health insurance (Overseas Student Health Cover - OSHC)

Note: Actual living expenses may vary based on the city (e.g., Sydney and Melbourne are more expensive than regional towns), lifestyle, and accommodation choices.
