WelcomeIf you are new to Poms In Oz and migrating to Australia or currently living in Australia feel free to say hi to all the other either in or moving to Oz.
Hi everyone,
Can anyone give me any info on the above agent. My husband and I have decided to go through them and I just wondered if anyone has used this company and if they have any comments? much appreciated.
hes had some good reviews on here do a search for his name
..
we are using ian harrop & associates and have found them very good maybe a liitle dearer but very professional.
he & his wife are australian and that may help.
he will also tell you on the phone if you meet the criteria before he takes any money from you and will arrange a meeting.
good luck and ihope this helps with your decision.
There are two services they offer: one where you go into the offices etc. Or alternatively where you do things via post and phone, which is the one we went with.
The lady's name was Sue and she was great, went over all the details on the phone, completed the paperwork, sent it to us with post it notes all over it, saying sign here, and then we sent it back to her and she did whatever she had to.
She was great, even phoning us late at night to tell us that we had been requested to supply the next bit of the visa which meant things were going fine.
We used them last year and the whole process was effortless,they helped every step of the way.Would highly recommend them to anyone .
Made the daunting process seem so easy.

Yep LouP we are going out on a skiled 136 visa on my trade as a mechanical fitter.
We thought the visa would be the hard part but once the tra was completed the rest was a doddle.
Off to Oz for hol in 2 weeks to validate visas, as the house wont sell (7 months on market)
Thought selling house would be the easy bit ,how wrong we were.

I am really confused here? I went with my sister in laws recommendation and emailed him. The problem I found was he said that my husband had to have a degree or finish his CIMA. Visa bureau gave him enough points on a diploma. This is at CIMA Professional level. I am now wondering how much these agents actually know and how come is there so many conflictions. This is what the assesment had brought up.
