We have used Migration Down Under to help us get our grandaughters citizenship. They were highly profession, fast, and helpful throughout the process. Now they are helping us with our daughters citizenship. Again, I cant recommend them enough. On Friday at 4:30 they asked me for some forms to be signed to submit. I sent them & thought to myself, oh well its Friday, so they'll be submitted Monday. Even though only 15 minutes left to submit...she did!

During the past four to five years, Alice Wang has been super professional in the process of assisting me in applying for both of my temporary working visa and PR visa. When I asked her about issues not related to those two visas, she was also very happy to answer my questions and provide advice. Julie was also a nice person. She called me and then sent me a detailed email yesterday to notify me of the finalisation of my PR visa application. Several other managers and directors working at Downunder left me with a great impression also. I can feel that Downunder has a healthy, warm, sweet atmosphere where staff members work with a happy mind and leave a happy mind to clients also.

To our pleasant surprise, the visa was processed and granted within an impressive six weeks, a significantly shorter timeframe than the usual processing period. I attribute this success to Migration Downunder's expertise and their commitment to providing a highly professional service.I wholeheartedly recommend Migration Downunder to anyone in need of reliable migration assistance.
