Default Recommend an agent

Hi

Hopefully going to apply for a 139 visa! Can someone recommend an agent who has delivered an efficient (cheap) service when applying this route?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

Please please please do not belive on agents. I have many bad
experiences. They always look for some of money and can take u
into trobles.

If u want to find a agent look for a registered migration agents list on
www.immi.gov.au site.

These registerd agents are well experienced i guess and monitored by the
DIMA and they had to renew their registration after a period of time
and if their is a black mark or a complain for them they will naver get
the renewal.

These agents are listed on country wise and u can select your country to
find a agent.

Asela

We have used Overseas Emigration in Edinburgh and though we don't have our Visa yet, they have been very efficient and chased us for info when we have been a bit slow. I don't think any agents are cheap but we were around 3 grand. There are loads of people on here who can give you their experiences of agents but you need to make sure they are registered agents (I think they need to be MARA registered but i could have this wrong - I let the other half look into this!) Someone on Here will be able to correct me if I'm wrong.

Anyway here is the link to OE's website but do a search on here and see what other people say.

exactly right, that is so important that they are mara registered. Ian Harrop has one of the longer mara registrations.

My agent, John Nye, is very good and relatively well priced. I paid Just over £3k for my skills assessment and visa application. (excl medicals, police checks and english test).

Look in my signature for his email address.
He is mara registered.
Don't risk being denied a visa for the sake of a few hundred pounds. Cheap is not always best!!!

Good Luck

The majority of agents fees exclude additional costs like meds, pc,s Dimia's fee's etc. Check out what exactly the agency's fees cover before signing.

£3k seems a lot! But yes I must agree that sometimes it's better to pay that little bit more to achieve certain goals. I take it that it got you where you want to be so you must be very pleased
