Embark on your migration journey with confidence

Australian migration agent fees can vary depending on the type of visa application, the complexity of the case, the agent's experience and reputation, and the level of service provided. Some will charge hourly rates for their services, particularly for tasks that go beyond standard application preparation, such as appeals or reviews. Others offer fixed fees upfront, so you know exactly how much to budget for their services. 

At Australian Migration Agents, we charge fixed rates for most cases. We’ll provide a quote after your first consultation once we have a better understanding of the services you require. We tailor our fees to your needs to ensure you get the advice and support you need for your specific situation.

Using a migration agent has many benefits that help make the visa process easier, less stressful, and quicker.

• Expertise - If your visa application is complex, a migration agent's expertise can be invaluable, as they can guide you through the intricacies of the immigration system.
• Save time - If you're unfamiliar with Australian immigration laws, regulations, and paperwork, a migration agent can save you time and reduce the risk of errors.
• Language assistance - If you're not proficient in English, a migration agent can help bridge the language gap and ensure that your application is accurate and well-prepared.
• Increased chance of success - Migration agents have a deep understanding of visa requirements and can help you present a stronger case, potentially increasing your chances of visa approval
• Appeals - If your application is rejected, having an immigration agent can be crucial when appealing or seeking a review of the decision.

Finding a good migration agent is crucial for a smooth and successful visa processing experience.

Firstly, ensure the agent you're considering is registered with the Migration Agents Registration Authority (MARA). MARA is the regulatory body that oversees migration agents in Australia. You can verify their registration on the MARA website.

Next, do some research - ask friends and family who have used migration firms in the past for recommendations and conduct some online searches. Once you have a shortlist of agents, schedule some consultations and use this opportunity to discuss your case, express any concerns, and ask questions about their experience, fees, and approach to handling applications. Some agents offer free consultations so you can see if you’re a good fit before progressing. 

In Australia, only registered migration agents and legal practitioners are authorised to provide immigration advice and assistance. That includes:

• Registered Australian migration agents who have undergone specific training and are registered with the MARA. They are authorised to provide immigration advice and assistance, prepare visa applications, and represent clients before the Department of Home Affairs.
• Legal practitioners who are registered with the relevant legal authorities in Australia. They are authorised to offer legal representation and services related to immigration matters.
• Exempt persons who can provide limited immigration advice and assistance, such as members of parliament or their staff (but only in their capacity as public officials and not for a fee), some government officials who may provide immigration-related information as part of their duties, and family members or friends who provide assistance without receiving any form of payment or fee.

There are many routes leading to permanent residency and from there, Australian citizenship. The specific requirements and eligibility criteria for a permanent residency visa can vary depending on your current visa subclass and your individual circumstances - one of our migration agents would be happy to discuss this with you during your consultation.
