Our Services

We don't just help you with visas, we help with all the other difficult parts of the process.

Employer Sponsored Visas

This is the starting point for most businesses. You are tendering for work or have already won a contract to supply manpower or services in Australia and the question is ‘how do we get our critical staff to Australia’. For many this will be a short- term project lasting a few months,for others there may be longer term objectives. You may be acting alone or with the help of the Australian entity for who you will be providing the services.

Corporate Relocation

This will be relevant to businesses that take a longer- term view of their Australian engagement and believe that the time is right to establish a subsidiary business in Australia. This may occur when Australian business has grown to such an extent that it makes sense from a business perspective to have a permanent office and staff in Australia. Once established and actively trading, the Australian entity would sponsor all future employees seeking visas.

Business Visas

This will apply to you if you are an investor or the owner / shareholder of a business outside Australia and want to open a business or invest funds in Australia with a view to gaining Australian permanent residency. This differs from the Employer Sponsored and Corporate Relocation scenarios in the sense that this is not a contract or staff driven process; it is rather one of individual / entrepreneurial aspiration to start something new in Australia.
