Agents Fees for PR application
Hi,
I am on a 457 visa that is due to expire in a few months, but my sponsoring company has offered to sponsor for PR subject to me signing a further 1 year tie in in my contract. They claim they need to do this as the cost of applying for PR (through Deloittes) is about $10,000... If this is the true fee, then I reckon they are being ripped off big time - but wanted to see if anyone else had an idea of the cost of using an agent to process the application... If I can find a reputable agent to do it cheaper I may be able to negociate down any contract tie in period, so I am keen to get some more info.. Any info/contacts would be great - especially so if the agent were based in Sydney.. Cheers Steve |

What do they get for their $10,000. Does that include contracts or anything else. If not then it's way too overpriced!!
Have a word with Alan and George about it by PM or e-mail. |

Try George Lombard... He's the nuts and based in Summer Hill Sounds like a good place to start - thanks Rodders... I think I may drop Alan Collett a line too... |

The fee is purely for doing the "admin" required to get PR...

I'd say they are taking the mick with that charge then. You'd be better off doing it all yourself! You could charge them half price ;) |

Yup, from a quick email it seems Deliottes are 2-3 times the price they should be...
