Frequently Asked Questions

Learn More

What visas are available in Australia?

Australia offers a variety of visas depending on your stay purpose. These include work visas, family visas, student visas and humanitarian visas. Each visa has specific eligibility criteria and conditions. It’s important to choose the right visa for your situation and seeking advice from an immigration lawyer can help ensure your application is correctly prepared.
What should I do if my visa application is refused?

If your visa application is refused, you may have the right to appeal the decision through the Administrative Appeals Tribunal (AAT). It’s important to act quickly, as there are strict time limits for appealing. Consulting with an immigration lawyer can help you understand the reasons for the refusal and build a stronger case for your appeal.
How can I apply for Australian citizenship?

To apply for citizenship, you must meet several criteria, including residency requirements, demonstrating good character and passing a citizenship test. An immigration lawyer can assist you in ensuring that all requirements are met and guide you through the process.
Can I sponsor a family member to come to Australia?

Yes, you can sponsor a family member to come to Australia under certain visa categories, such as partner visas, parent visas and child visas. Each visa category has specific eligibility requirements for both the sponsor and the applicant. An immigration lawyer can assist you in understanding the requirements and preparing a strong application to increase the chances of a successful outcome.
