Hi its a service arranged by SA goverment, someone will meet you at the airport and take you to your accomadation, if you look at http://www.immigration.sa.gov.au choose skilled visa from the left hand menu then services it will give you all the details about this and other services like on arrival accomadation.

Hope this helps.

What's nice about it is that the Meeters and Greeters are usually expats...so can understand what you're going through and how overwhelming/exciting arriving in a new country can be.

Very handy when you first arrive - point you in the right direction for paperwork etc and take you to local shop for 'first shop' for essentials You also get a free UBD which is essential for getting around!!!!

Just wondering is this service offered free.

I guess it depends on who you talk to. A new friend of mine went through meet and greet and the people who looked after them were an old couple who helped them out no end. A really pleasent expereince.

However, another friend only lasted a week in the meet and greet accomodation and was glad to get out!

From what I've heard it can be pot luck.

There are 2 different services you can request - meet and greet where you get picked up from airport etc is free.

 

You can also request On Arrival Accomodation (OAA) which is basic housing for up to 12 weeks you can apply for which you would pay on average $160 a week for.
