Do you know what Visa you should apply for?

There are many different Visas when considering migration to Australia, and the right one depends on the following:

qualifications
work experience
how long you want to stay in Australia, and
what you want to do in Australia (visit, study, work, manage a business, or join your Australian children etc).

Australian Immigration laws and procedures are complex and subject to constant change. Applying for the incorrect Visa can be a timely and costly mistake.

Having the guidance and expert advice of a Registered Migration Agent, such as Apex Migration, in choosing the right Visa for your individual circumstances can save you time, money and heartache.

What Does a Registered Migration Agent Do?

Visa Advice and Eligibility Assessment

One of the primary roles of a Registered Migration Agent is to provide tailored advice on Visa options. With numerous Visa categories available, determining the right one can be challenging. Registered Migration Agents assess your situation, including your qualifications, work experience, family circumstances, and long-term goals, to identify the most suitable Visa options. They also evaluate your eligibility, ensuring that you meet all the necessary criteria before applying.

Assistance with Visa Applications

Once a suitable visa has been identified, the next step is the application process, here your Registered Migration Agent will assist with:

Document preparation: They help gather and organise the required documents, such as proof of identity, financial records, and employment history.
Application lodgement: They will submit your Visa application on your behalf, ensuring all forms are correctly filled out and submitted within the deadlines.
Communication with authorities: They act as a liaison between you and the Australian Government Department of Home Affairs, responding to any queries or requests for additional information.

Assistance with challenging applications

Registered Migration Agents have an in-depth understanding of the Australian Visa application processes and legislation and are well-versed in working through challenging applications, such as those involving character issues, health concerns, or previous visa refusals. They have the expertise to address these challenges, providing advice on how to strengthen your application or resolve potential obstacles.

Appeals and reviews

If your Visa application is refused, a Registered Migration Agent can guide you through the appeals process. They represent clients in the Administrative Review Tribunal (ART), where they present your case and argue for a favourable outcome. This service is crucial for those facing Visa cancellations or refusals, as the process can be legally complex and emotionally draining.

There are limits on the help that Apex Migration can provide as a Registered Migration Agent.

We cannot:

keep working with you if we discover there is a conflict of interest
