I suggest you contact the Australian Migration Agent and Immigration Lawyer Association. You can ask your questions online and all your payments are protected by PaySafe in case you are not happy with their performance. I recently hear a lot of good feedback about their agents and lawyers.

Academic is harder than General. DIBP will accept the both. 

Thank you for the great post!

You should get quotes from a lot of agents and also ask them directly if they have an experience with handling ACS applications in the past.

Thank you!

I get really confused by looking at all the comments. I wonder whether the new legislation has been applied or not- time frame wise. I would like to apply for citizenship but I have been holding PR for only one year. If the old rule is still applicable, I am still able to apply for the citizenship now.  Is there anyone who can clarify that??

Thank you for sharing this link. It will be very helpful for me studying IELTS! Need 7 in each section

It is good that the visa application charges have not been increased A LOT... however, I am wondering how many times Australian Immigration would change the fee every year!
