Our History
As one of the original private migration agencies in the UK and Ireland, the Migration Bureau has been leading the way for over 15 years and is proud to be one of the pioneers of the modern day migration consulting industry.
Changing Face of Immigration
The number of new migrants to Australia, New Zealand and Canada has been constantly increasing for many years as skilled workers, qualified professionals, business persons and families from around the world look for a better quality of life.
Growing Need for Visa Consultants
Competition for a limited number of places is constantly increasing. With this in mind, the immigration authorities must make a preference to those with well prepared applications and this is the reason why many applicants use the services of an immigration consultant.
The immigration consulting industry has been formally recognised by the various governments through the creation of professional industry bodies;
- Migration Agents Registration Authority (MARA)
- Migration Institute of Australia (MIA)
- New Zealand - Immigration Advisers Authority (IAA)
- Canadian Society of Immigration Consultants (CSIC)
- Office of the Overseas Immigration Commissioner (OISC)
Australia, Canada & New Zealand Immigration Policy
According to current immigration policy, the following numbers of visas are granted annually (approximates):
Australia: 170,000
New Zealand: 50,000
Canada: 265,000
Using an agent like the Migration Bureau is now the accepted method of applying for a visa (some 60% of applicants are processed with an agent), and the best way for you to maximise the chances of your application succeeding.
MIGRATION NEWS ARCHIVES
