Welcome to AMES Australia

Who is AMES Australia?

AMES Australia is a government agency who has been helping refugees and migrants to settle into Australia for more than 70 years. We achieve this not only by working with you our clients but also with the community, business, and Government to develop sustainable and effective settlement solutions for the Victorian, South Australian & Tasmanian communities.

Trust that you are in safe hands and that we are here to support you and your families to settle in Australia.

Your Case Manager

You have been assigned a Case Manager who will contact you shortly after you arrive to your temporary accommodation. Your case manager will be able to provide advice and answers to many of your questions and support you in many ways.

If you require additional food or clothing, please contact your case manager.

You will be issued with a mobile phone with a SIM card (1 per family). Please note that it might take a couple of days for the SIM card to activate.
