Although using a Migration Agent is not compulsory if you feel you are not confident
in lodging an application yourself or if your case is complex you should choose
to use a Migration Agent.
If you lodge an application yourself and do not include the correct information
there is a chance your application may be invalid or may be delayed or refused.
As the immigration regulations are complex and frequently changing, so in order
to lodge a proper and correct application you must the updated knowledge in the
field. The immigration rules and regulations are confusing and can change on a regular
basis, sometimes even weekly! From one day to the next, you cannot be sure which
regulations will apply to your case.
As a result, many applicants incorrectly assess themselves or apply under the wrong
visa class, invariably leading to substantial delays and ultimately refusal. Every
year, the applications of thousands of hopeful migrants are refused or delayed due
to errors or mistakes, many of which were avoidable. Hence the need for professional
advise and assistance during this difficult interface between you, the individual,
and Immigration Authorities is required.

by submitting a fully documented case on your behalf in the format requested by
the relevant official authority.
