I am not aware that companies pay schooling allowance and 2-3 months accommodation. Even top companies very big foreign companies with a sizeable FT pay only 1 month service apartment rent and ask you to find a place within a month.pppq99 wrote: ↑Sat, 25 Sep 2021 11:55 pmWe are a family of 4 (2 adults, little one who will be 1yo when we move next year, and a doggo).
Initial thoughts were:
- Health insurance for the family
- 2 or 3 months accomodation (swinging towards serviced apartment) while we search for a permanent place
- Airfares
- Shipping costs
Anything missing - also what (in GBP or SGD) should be the number to put down? Again, rough estimates for now Was also thinking about asking for some schooling cost contributions - as basically we wouldn't have to pay anything in London (well, bar the odd nursery day or two - I work from home largely).
Cheers!

That's sounds reasonable for a good starting point.ProvenPracticalFlexible wrote: ↑Mon, 27 Sep 2021 12:29 pmHere's some items you might wanna try, with some estimated costs:
