Visa Assist: Free Visa Advice and Help
Visa Assist provides free visa advice and help with all your visa questions or problems. Our visa experts are registered lawyers in Australia.
Australia’s visa and migration laws are difficult to navigate. Migration lawyers are expensive and it can be hard to find a good migration expert who won’t overcharge you. That’s why Visa Assist is free for union members in NSW.
Visa Assist covers all types of visas in Australia, including:
- Pathways to permanent residency and PR visas
- Sponsored visas
- Graduate visa
- Regional visa
- Student visa
- Working holiday visa
- Work or skilled visa
- Sponsoring family members to come to Australia
- Visitor Visas
- Bridging Visas
- Visas for New Zealanders
- Review of Department of Immigration decisions
- Partner visas
- Visa renewals or extensions
The service is completely confidential and is provided to you over the phone or in person. Visa Assist also has interpreters if needed.
