Agents can now certify all your docs, don't know if they will charge extra tho or whether it's all part of the service....

Re: Agents can certify..
Look what i found - answered my own question!!!
From 1 October 2006 the Migration Regulations 1994 ('the Regulations') will be amended to provide that registered migration agents, in Australia and outside Australia, may certify copies of original documents that relate to visa applications, provided that their registration is not currently suspended and they are not subject to a caution that is in effect.
