Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between an immigration lawyer and a migration agent?
Both are registered to provide immigration advice. A migration lawyer also holds a law degree and can represent you in court proceedings and AAT appeals. Our team includes both registered lawyers and migration agents.
My visa has been cancelled — what can I do?
Act immediately. You typically have 28 days to apply for merits review at the AAT. Contact us on (03) 9957 6899 as soon as possible — missing deadlines can result in deportation.
Can I apply for a visa if I have a criminal record?
Having a criminal record doesn't automatically disqualify you, but it must be disclosed. We assess your specific situation and advise on the best approach to maximise your chances of visa approval.
