Understand the advice and the scope

Migration fees are quoted case by case by AIA, in writing. Government fees are charged separately by the Australian Government.
Questions to ask AIA
- Which pathways are relevant to my circumstances?
- What evidence will be needed?
- Which services are included in the written quote?
- What government charges are separate?
- What conditions or ongoing responsibilities should I understand?
Your questions
Working with AIA
General information is a starting point. AIA can check the requirements for your circumstances.
Is AIA the recruitment contact?
Hire Australia handles registration, enquiries and recruitment. AIA is the immigration partner and provides migration advice.
Does an agent guarantee a visa outcome?
No. Home Affairs decides visa applications. AIA can advise on eligibility, evidence and the application process. In Australia, only registered migration agents and legal practitioners can lawfully charge for immigration assistance.
