Hi there,
we've just started to look at agencies to emigrate, has anyone got any recommendations or agencies to steer clear of?? If you could give me any suggestions with fees if possible it would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,

Lots of threads on this, do a search and all will be revealed.

We are using AMA (Active Migration Australia), would recomend them on our experience. Website: www.theozlife.com or email: [email protected] and tell her Paula & Heath recommended.

Agency fees for 136 MODL Skilled TRA and Visa application - was given two choices: 1st: $2000 in two installments - 2nd: $3600 in one installment.

you of course then have to fork out $500 TRA fee (if 136 skilled), DIMA fee $1935 (ish), the cost for medicals with xrays (we paid £512 for two), Police check is only £10.00 - then the incidentals of courier costs, fees for certifying documents (or solicitor charged £30 for up to 100 docs, signing witness statements and declarations, certifying true likeness to photos).

It may seem a lot - but the prospect of a new life is PRICELESS!!!!

I can highly recommend Concept Australia in London - they have offices in Manchester too.

They take their payments in 3 stages so its not all out in one lump sum.

Very helpful...

Hi I&S, I am being sponsored on a 457 and my new company use an organisation called Fragomen, www.fragomen.com.au. To date they have been very good and informative, based out of Sydney. However I'm unsure if they do personal applications, can't hurt to ask though

I waited up till midnight because I had to speak to them to ensure that they had received some information I emailed and the lady there dropped everything to speak to me, if you do want to email her, here is her address [email protected] ( Maija Morris, pronounced Mya )
