I thought that the US had a higher GNI per capita.

Those numbers would be about right with all the billionairs & millionairs here in the USA. Take them out of the equation & just compare the average working guys income & it is very different.

I think you have to have a parent of Australian decent to qualify for dual citizenship. Unless something has changed my daughter has dual with Australia & USA.

He just needs to gain Australian citizenship and retain his American one if US law allows it to be a dual

You can use median statistics for that.  Usually, though, median stats and mean stats are not all that much different for such national measures.

Either way i look at it, its going to be a long process. After my research, i think my best bet to start with, is to get the 12 month holiday/work visa. Which allows me to work up to 6 months at one job and then 6 months at another, then i can feel things out, and hopefully get something accomplished while in Australia. Should be an adventure!

Doesn't Australia also have some pretty restrictive firearm laws?

T

Not for service men and women or vets

but if you are a civilian get busted with a weapon from the 'prohibited list' and you have no gun safe to put them in and you have no exemption from cheif commisioner of Victorian police (this is for Victoria)
your looking at about 5 years in the slammer and a 24.5k fine on top of that (thats the maximum penalty)
also in Victoria, if you get the exemption, the police can come do random checks on the weapons to see if they are properly secured and you can not denie them into your home

but Victoria's weapons laws are very very tight (strictest in the country)
but in other states to my knowledge the laws are pretty reasonable, I'm not entirly sure about the laws there though due to i'm from Victoria, If you haven't caught on yet
