Clear advice to help you decide your next step
Whether you are exploring your visa options, planning for permanent residence, considering citizenship or looking to sponsor an employee, the right advice can help you make informed decisions.
​
An initial consultation with GPS Migration Australia gives you dedicated time with a Registered Migration Agent to discuss your circumstances, ask questions and understand the pathways that may be available.
​
We take the time to understand what you want to achieve and explain the relevant requirements in plain English. Our aim is to give you a clearer understanding of your options, the issues that need attention and your next steps.
What We Discuss
Individual Visa Applicants
​
Depending on your enquiry, your consultation may include:
​
-
reviewing your current visa status, immigration history and goals
-
assessing potential visa, sponsorship or citizenship pathways
-
explaining the main eligibility requirements and evidence you may need
-
identifying relevant visa conditions, deadlines and potential risks
-
discussing the application process, likely costs and timing considerations
-
answering your questions and outlining practical next steps.
If further research or document review is needed before we can confirm an option, we will explain what is required. If a pathway does not appear available in your circumstances, we will discuss why and whether there are alternatives worth considering.

Consultations for employers
​
For businesses considering overseas workers, an initial consultation can help clarify the sponsorship, nomination and visa stages, the role your business needs to fill and the requirements that may apply.
​
We can discuss your workforce needs, potential employer-sponsored pathways, relevant salary and recruitment requirements, and the responsibilities involved in becoming or remaining a sponsor.​
How to Prepare
​​A little preparation helps us make the most of your appointment. Depending on your enquiry, useful information may include:
​
-
a brief summary of your immigration history and any important dates
-
your CV, qualifications, English test results or skills assessment, if relevant
-
previous visa decisions or correspondence from the Department of Home Affairs
-
a relationship timeline, citizenship residence history, or details of the role your business wishes to sponsor.
You do not need a complete application ready before speaking with us. Start with the information you have and a short list of your main questions. We can help identify what else is needed.
​
Please let us know when enquiring if your visa is close to expiring or you have a deadline to respond to the Department.
​
What Happens Afterwards?
​
Your consultation helps you understand your options before deciding how to proceed. There is no obligation to engage GPS Migration Australia for further services.
​
If you would like ongoing support, we will explain the proposed scope of work, professional fees and anticipated additional costs. These will be confirmed in a written service agreement before further work begins.
​
Your Consultation Fee Credited Towards Further Support
​
If you engage GPS Migration Australia for full visa application or employer sponsorship support for the same matter, your consultation fee will be credited in full towards our professional fees. To qualify, you must sign your service agreement and pay the initial agreed payment within 30 days of your consultation.
​
The credit applies once per matter. It applies to our professional fees and cannot be used towards government charges, third-party expenses, standalone document reviews or additional consultations.
​
There is no obligation to engage us for further services. Your consultation gives you advice to help you make an informed decision about your next steps.
