Default Unregistered Agents!!??

We have just found out that the agent doing all of our work for us is un-registered!! We are just about to have medicals done next week & police checks are completed. The monies have come out of our account for DIMIA. So we are guessing that so far so good!

Application was lodged end of January and monies came out 11th Feb.

Have we been duped or will our visas (if they come through) be legal and above board??

Really look forward to hearing from someone in the know.

Don't know but fingers crossed for you!

Think positive - so far so good . . . . .

Hope you get a real visa soon!

I'm not in 'the know' but I don't think it makes a difference if they are registered except for when it comes to complaining for poor service or making a claim against them. Our agent isn't registered either and she works for a fairly big (or at least they make out they are big) company.

Sounds like its going OK to me??????

Mara you dont have to be registered to them to be a good agent and as far as i know you have to be, or at least some one in your agency that holds the cert has to be australian, so lots of agents are not mara registered just the firm but people like to see acreditation like guild of master craftsmen etc etc.

best of luck to you
