Why Choose An Immigration Consultant

Although the Government remains committed to providing direct access for immigration application to government services, many people decide to employ an immigration specialist to assist them in the application process.

Bilimoria & Associate treats every application that is lodged with due care and follows up with the Immigration department and updates the client when heard from the respective Immigration department on the application.

Bilimoria & Associate are up-to-date with the changes happening with the Immigration policy and are advised and trained to ensure that all applications meet the criteria before lodgment of an application. During the preparation of an application, we advise the client on the changes of any Immigration policy that could affect your application. Your consultant knows how to respond to the changes by Immigration department and has the required skills to address those issues in a manner which will maximise a client’s success rate depending on the client meeting the existing new policy.

The reasons are as follows:

Time:

The immigration process usually takes several months and many people are often too busy to spend a lot of time going back and forth dealing directly with bureaucracy of immigration, procedures and processes. Bilimoria & Associate will help in preparing and handle the day to day details of the application for a smooth process.

Expertise:

An immigration application requires a high level of knowledge and understanding of immigration legislation and while the immigration service provides comprehensive information on laws and policies, many people feel more confident if a specialist handles their application. Bilimoria & Associate is well known for their expertise in document preparation for a successful outcome.

Uniqueness:

Every potential immigrant is different and has a unique set of circumstances that must be taken into account. Each applicant has his own set of important questions to ask and a need to receive competent answers to those questions. The reality is that immigration service officers are simply too busy dealing with thousands of applications to provide advice on each and every individual case.

The successful preparation of an immigration application requires a comprehensive knowledge of immigration law, policy interpretation and decision precedents. Simple descriptions of policy, whether issued by Immigration department or provided by immigration professionals cannot communicate the complexity of how an individual case may interact with Policy.

Professional Advise:

A client may lodge his or her own application without the assistance of a professional consultant. Persons considering doing so should, however, be aware that there are risks involved. Under Government Policy it is the obligation of the applicant to meet all of the requirements of policy, including providing full details of all relevant matters, whether previously requested or not. Your consultant has the experience to identify the information which will best support your application.

It is the responsibility of your consultant to identify the information required and to exclude that which could compromise the application. Applications which do not meet the required level are declined. Immigration department is not an advisory body and neither does it have any obligation to help applicants. Its role is to decide cases on the basis of information given to it, and according to Policy and the Law.

There are strict requirements on the age of some documents at date of lodgement; many qualifications that applicants believe to be acceptable do not have the equivalence to an assessment body and skilled experience and interpretation is required. In some Immigration offices, a high percentage of applications that have been lodged by individuals who believed they were qualified, have in fact been declined. Statistics from the Residence Appeal Authority show that nearly 50% of declined decisions are overturned on appeal.

If an applicant believes his or her case may be strong or clear cut, that is all the more reason to obtain professional advice to ensure the outcome that is deserved. The cost of failure is too high. Thus it is important to choose a professional Immigration consultant who can help towards processing your application and cut time and cost of failure on your application.
