I am writing to thank you for the outstanding work you did for me. You were superbly efficient and professional. Words cannot give my appreciation justice.My experience was excellent with the service provided.Initially I had my video consultation with Julie who was very professional , very knowledgeable and exceptionally polite. Later I interacted with Alice who assisted me with the same level of care and professionalism. Both individuals were extremely professional and approachable, which made the process of my visa application seamless and pleasant.I would love to recommend this service to anyone looking for expert assistance and excellent service.Once again my heartful thanks and appreciation for you and everyone else worked on my case.

I have been recommended by a friend to see Julie Williams to assist with my sister’s declined tourist visa. She immediately knew what to do and advised not to appeal but to re-lodge a new application but through the sponsored route. Silvana Lavic was assigned to my case and she was very professional, kind, and respectful. She really understood our situation and took the time to explain the process. Really happy with our outcome as my sister’s toursit visa has now been approved and she can spend Christmas with us! Thank you to Julie, Silvana and the whole team at Migration Down Under.

I've heard so many good things about Migration Downunder as some of my colleagues were also former clients. When I was referred to this migration agency to process my 482 visa through a labour agreement, I never hesitated to hire their service. The entire process was surprisingly smooth. Everything was very organized given that they are all well-verse with migration processes. Katrin & Christine were very proactive, knowledgeable, and always focused on helping me achieve my goals. All instructions were very clear and easy to understand on my end which resulted to the approval of my 482 visa application in less than a month. Highly recommended!

She demonstrated patience and professionalism throughout the process, guiding me step-by-step with the documents.

I reached out for help on a local Facebook page after the tourist visa application for two boys I’m sponsoring and hosting was rejected. Julie, aware that this was a charity case, generously offered free legal advice, and her team dedicated many hours to support our cause. I was completely unprepared for the level of evidence needed—Julie provided me with a two-page, itemised list of necessary documents, which took two months to gather. Her team drafted, ordered and submitted the second application 10 days ago. Thanks to the incredible support from Julie and the many many emails with Silvana, the boys received their visas on Friday. I am so grateful and cannot thank or recommend Julie and her team enough!

Excellent work from Philippines to Australia. I found Julie and migration downunder with their youtube channel. Very informative. Silvana at Migration Downunder processed my wife's 309 visa and at the time, I thought the fee was high (comparable with competitors) However the amount of work needed and the effort they put in, was well worth it. I'm known to cut corners but Silvana was always in contact to get photos and paperwork, always in constant contact with us, always updating the immi. It really was a HUGE amount of work and professionalism shown by MD. Their streamlined processes make it very convenient. It was a choice between MD and another visa provider, however at the start I reached out by email to ask a few questions to prepare for the visa and Julie (the principal) answered them no problem, where the other company wanted a consulting fee just for answering a few questions by email. So migration downunder was the clear choice. They were patient for a few months of back and forward emails then i engaged their services.. Start to finish (lodgement to approval) was just under 10 months process (this included delays in Ph with obtaining documents) Every document or photo or evidence Silvana asked for, was lodged immediately to immi, on the day i provided it to MD. There was no chasing them up. They always confimed lodment and any documents i had missed. I was notified by email at 10pm of the approval as silvana was checking her email, she sent the good news, she did not wait until she was in the office or wait until Monday morning to open her emails. This might sound trivial however all these small things all add up and make a big difference in the experience. Even after the approval, silvana advised we would need a CFO.. I had no idea about this but if we did not get that small amount of information, just one peice of the puzzle missing, 1 minor detail left out, that would be the best part of $2000+ 💸 lost in flights. I have no doubt I could not have achieved this result on my own. I had previously applied for a tourist visa for my partner and was turned down.. on a tourist visa!! MD asked me to leave this review after their completed work and I was shocked there is 380 reviews all 5 star.. but I can see why and they deserve it. Thanks a lot and I will be using them for more work in the future
