Visa applications are detailed and the rules change often. Immigration lawyers and registered migration agents check eligibility, prepare evidence and lodge applications, and represent people when a visa is refused or cancelled. Lawyers can also take matters to court on questions of law, which migration agents cannot. Check that anyone giving immigration assistance is a practising lawyer or a registered migration agent.
Why immigration law matters
Australia's visa system is complex and changes often. Mistakes can be costly and hard to undo.
The Australian context
Migration is federal, under the Migration Act 1958, administered by the Department of Home Affairs, with review by the Administrative Review Tribunal.
Understand the next step
A practical guide to immigration & visas in Perth North
Choosing the right kind of assistance
Advice depends on the pathway, current status, location and application history. Disclose earlier refusals and cancellations. Home Affairs identifies registered migration agents, legal practitioners and certain exempt people as authorised providers of immigration assistance; confirm your adviser’s professional status.
Working with a firm in Perth North
Joondalup, Wanneroo and Stirling are grouped as Perth North. A property settlement after separation, a home conveyance and a deceased estate may involve the same address but require different legal work.
For immigration & visas, ask which parts of the work the firm handles itself and whether it has relevant WA experience. Let the lawyer know if a property, employer, other party or existing proceeding is outside Perth North. Your home address alone does not determine the applicable process.
How the engagement may progress
01
Gather identity documents, visa records, decision letters and application history. Confirm who will give the advice and their scope of work.
02
Ask which requirements and evidence need assessment, including translations or reports. No provider can guarantee the application outcome.
03
Agree who receives correspondence and tracks requests. Keep a complete copy of lodged material and understand what you approve before submission.
Fees and the scope of work
Separate professional fees from government charges, translations and other expenses. Preparing an application does not necessarily include a review or court proceeding.
Ask for a written scope identifying the work you are authorising, the person responsible and when costs will be reviewed. If you only want advice on one step, say so before the firm begins wider work.
Dates to raise at first contact
Provide expiry dates and the entire decision letter immediately. Review rights and dates depend on the particular decision and circumstances.
Questions to ask a immigration & visas adviser
How can I verify your professional status?
Does the scope include further-information requests or review work?

Good to know
Frequently asked questions
Lawyer or migration agent?
Both can prepare and lodge visa applications. For refusals, cancellations and court appeals, or where there are criminal or character issues, an immigration lawyer is usually the better choice.
What can I do if my visa is refused?
Many refusals can be reviewed by the Administrative Review Tribunal, but strict and short deadlines apply. Get advice as soon as you receive the decision.
How long do partner visas take?
Processing times vary and change often. A complete application with strong evidence avoids delays caused by requests for more information.
