Hi Barbs1
There is one other difference too. Britain has an agreement with Australia over Medicare. so if your daughter has a British passport and is on a temporary visa then she will get Medicare. If she is on a South African one she won't with a temporary visa - I found this out from a South African friend here a few days ago.
If your daughter is coming in on a permanent visa then it shouldn't make any difference with Medicare since as a permanent resident she will be entitled to it.
Feel free to check this with an agent.
Regards,
Karen
