Hello all, after a fair bit of research, emails and phone calls, we have decided to use Go Matilda as our agent in helping us to get our visa. i was just wondering if anyone has used these before or know anyone who has just before we part with any money - for peace of mind really. Thanks x

yeah they did mention that, It is hard to properly get information out of them until you pay to go on their books, both agents i spoke to openly told me that. I think we are going to go with Concept Australia which is one of the agents i spoke too, the other was a MARA agent named James Gordon x

Hey, well I have spoken with a couple of MARA agents and they have all suggested the same thing.....start the ball rolling now. So we are sitting down this week to decide the agent we want to go with as I think it's too complex to do as a family on our own when we have no idea what we on about! Thank for your help. We have also been advised a parent visa is too expensive so the route for us is a skilled migration visa with my partner as the lead applicant x

Funnily enough i have just contacted both of those! Thank you. Maybe the best thing for us now would be just to save, get in contact with someone for an idea of the visa we need. I have been told visa applications can take around 18 months, but hopefully an agent can shed some light on this. Thanks for your help x

Hi Everyone, I was wondering if anyone could shed some light on the visa me and my family might require and if anyone has had a similar experience. Me and my parter have been together since 2009 and we are getting married on 23rd August 2014, we have a one year old daughter and have lived together since January 2010. My partner lived in Adelaide for 6 years and was married (and now divorced) to an australian citizen, he has a 5 and a half year old daughter living in Adelaide. He had his residency accepted but cancelled it and moved to England after the breakdown of his marriage. My parter is a qualified self employed bricklayer and has been since he was 18 (he is now 31) He also did this job for the 6 years he lived in Adelaide. We would like to return to Australia as a family in 2017. We have a family of Australian citizens willing to sponsor us as my partner remains good friends and is still in contact with the friends he made in Adelaide while living there. We are unsure of what the most cost effective visa would be to enable us to to move to Australia as a family. I have contacted a few agents via the MARA website but so far they have proved unhelpful and i am still none the wiser. Look forward to hearing from you. Ashleigh
