A refusal or cancellation notice has strict deadlines. Contact us as soon as possible so we can explain your options before time runs out.
We are a Registered Migration Agent (MARN 2619548). We give advice and prepare and lodge applications on your behalf. We do not issue visas — every visa decision is made by the Department of Home Affairs.
Many decisions can be reviewed by the Administrative Review Tribunal (ART). Strict time limits apply from the date you are notified.
Sometimes a fresh, better-prepared application is the stronger path.
We help you understand the notice and prepare your response.
We look at whether a different visa may suit your situation.
Requirements, occupation lists, fees and processing times are set by the Australian Government and change often. We check the current rules for your case before anything is lodged.
Share the refusal or cancellation letter and the date you received it.
We read the reasons and check the deadline immediately.
We explain review, re-application or other pathways and their risks.
If you go ahead, we prepare and lodge the review or new application.
The exact list depends on your visa and circumstances. Common examples:
No. Nobody can. As a registered migration agent we give advice and prepare your application carefully, but every decision is made by the Department of Home Affairs.
It depends on the decision and is stated in your letter. Deadlines can be very short, so contact us straight away.
Every case is different. Book a consultation and we will explain your options honestly, including when a visa may not be the right fit.
