Other Services

English Language.

Applying for an Australian visa means that you will have to satisfy an English Language knowledge requirement. The level of English knowledge depends on what visa you are applying for and which country you are from. For applicants from non English speaking countries, this will mean that you will need to obtain a certain score in IELTS (International English Language Testing System).

Our firm offers applicants the opportunity to have their knowledge tested before deciding on whether they need further study or if their knowledge is of a level where they will be able to pass the test.

Job Search.

We understand that applying for a job whilst living overseas can be extremely difficult. It can be just as hard if you are currently in Australia on a student visa and wanting to apply for a skilled visa. We have access to a large database of companies who are constantly looking to fill positions with International Skilled workers. So please contact us and we’ll endeavour to find suitable employment for you.

Relocation Service.

Once you have been granted a visa we can assist you in finding housing, setting up bank accounts and other utilities.
