    In Australia your son would be eligible for the National Disability Insurance Scheme which would supply government funding for all the services he requires. You would possibly also be eligible for your own disability support funding as his primary carer but I’m not sure on the criteria for that.

      That would be amazing. Sadly I’ve looked into immigration for Australia and New Zealand and they both have restrictions based on autism. They aren’t guaranteed disqualifier, but it is a risk, that if I found a job that was willing to sponsor me, I might not be able to go.

        I’m saddened to hear that, I’ve heard a few horror stories about emigrating here, it’s unfortunately restrictive. I hope you can find somewhere that will work for you and your son.
