History of migration in Canberra

The area now known as Canberra was inhabited by the indigenous peoples of the Ngunnawal, Ngunawal and Ngambri groups, thousands of years before European settlement, which began in the early 20th century, following the decision to establish Canberra as the capital of Australia in 1908.

Unlike other major cities in Australia, Canberra's migration history is less focused on waves of immigration for economic reasons and more on the growth of the federal government. The city's economy is primarily driven by Australian government-related industries, which continue to draw professionals and skilled workers from around the country and overseas.

Is it worth using a migration agent?

Obtaining immigration advice by engaging a migration agent can play a major role in the success and ease of the application process. While the main drawback of engaging agents is the associated cost, the benefits often outweigh this concern. A professional migration agent not only relieves the stress of navigating the complex process but also significantly lowers the risk of visa refusals, which has risen sharply in recent years. Mistakes, even minor ones, in your application can lead to rejection, loss of non-refundable government fees, and potentially complicate future visa applications​​. As such, it is advisable to obtain Australian visa advice from an immigration agent at the outset. 

A registered agent stays updated on all legislative changes, providing you with the most current advice. They can explore all visas available for you, reducing the stress and time involved in the application process. Moreover, an experienced migration agent can guide you through the process of document collection and immigration advice to support your application, improving the chance that you will obtain visa approval.

Whether migration services are required for you or a family member, engaging the support of our migration services will ease the process of navigating the complex immigration process. We strongly recommend getting in contact with an agent to assist with your application, visa extension services and all other immigration matters.

Our agents can support you in the accurate and quick submission of documents to the Australian Department of Home Affairs. With a thorough understanding of the meticulous documentation that is needed to satisfy a comprehensive range of visa requirements, our agents have helped countless families to achieve their migration goals. From student visas to permanent residency and parent visas, we guide you through the entire process lying ahead.

How do I choose a migration agent?

Choosing the right migration agent is crucial. It's not just about using any agent; it's about finding one that is experienced, reliable, and the best migration agent to suit your specific needs. The consequences of selecting the wrong agent include lost money due to errors, potential scams, and receiving misleading or incorrect advice that could derail your migration plans​​. Therefore, it's essential to do thorough research, understand the fees involved, and ensure the agent is registered with the Migration Agents Registration Authority (MARA) for your peace of mind and security.  Any Australian migration agent is required to follow the agents’ Code of Conduct, ensuring professionalism and integrity in all the efforts they undertake.

We appreciate that the process of migrating to Australia can be stressful. Resultantly, we ensure that all clients receive great service when engaging with any immigration services at our migration institution, as our specialist immigration consultants guide you through various migration solutions available to you.
