Success!

There's no feeling like the joy of ringing a client to tell them their visa has been approved. This is especially so when their case was one of high risk or possible hurdles.

Today I finished reporting to a client whose permanent spouse visa was approved - an outcome that appeared to be against the odds but, thanks to some clever submissions and careful application of the Migration Regs, we were able to get her over the line.

What was so special about this case? My client had been unlawfully in Australia for almost a decade - so by all rights, one would think the only visa she'd be eligible for would be one that enables her to leave the country.

The Regs, however, allow for an onshore application despite even a ten year period of unlawfulness in compelling or compassionate circumstances. Of course, it took some arguing to prove those circumstances existed here.

This is why seeking proper advice about a migration application can be so vital - we can't always find the right answer, but when a solution is there, you can be sure we'll help you find your way!

I love this job.
