Your interests are our prime concern. When it comes to the
welfare of our clients, the Migration Bureau does not compromise. Our
commitment to offering you an effective, professional migration
consulting service is paramount and covered by this comprehensive, Five Point Service Guarantee*;
LIKELIHOOD OF SUCCESS
We will only take on your case if, at the outset, there appears to be
at least a reasonable likelihood of success. You will receive a frank
and clear written assessment of your eligibility for residence before we
agree to act for you. One of our consultants will also explain the
different entry criteria, regulations, processing time-frames and stages
of the application process so that you are clear about your way
forward.
NO RISK OF PENALTY
We
understand that your personal circumstances may change during the
immigration process. Therefore, if you must cancel for any reason, you
may do so at any time without the risk of penalty or further charge from
the Migration Bureau other than a small one-off file closure/document
return fee. In this event, you will only be responsible for the costs
incurred up to the time of file closure.
Self-represent at any time
Although
strongly not recommended, you may also terminate our services at any
time during the immigration process and, if you feel confident enough to
do so, handle any remaining aspects of your visa application yourself
(i.e. self represent). In this case, you will only be responsible for
the costs up to the date of termination, but of course our company can
no longer take any responsibility for the outcome of your case. (With
the exception of the Budget Visa Service and small file closure/document
return fee).
NOTE: All "on hold" files are subject to a monthly
file management fee to ensure that your file remains open and accessible
to our consultants. In addition, for regulatory reasons, any work
necessary to protect your client interests due to immigration changes or
changes in status situations that arise may be charged for.
"PAY AS YOU GO" POLICY
Unlike
others in the industry, the Migration Bureau does not charge up front
fixed fees. Instead, we charge on a time-recording basis, meaning that
you pay on a progressive basis, as and when work is completed on your
application. With the exception of initial immigration evaluation fees,
initial deposit payments and Budget Visa Service fees).
This way,
you can monitor the progress of your case while ensuring that the costs
are more conveniently spread over the entire application process.
FEE PROTECTION
We
are committed to maintaining the quality and effectiveness of our visa
processing service. In the very unlikely event that you find a valid
error or mistake with any aspect of our service, simply advise us and we
will put the matter right wherever realistically possible at no further
cost to you in terms of our consulting fee. (See terms and conditions
for conditions and exclusions).
PERFORMANCE WARRANTY
For
your added protection and security, the quality of our migration
advisory service is independently backed by a professional indemnity
insurance policy placed with an "A rated" international insurance house,
providing you with complete peace of mind.
*Notes:
i)
Our Five Point Service Guarantee covers most aspects of our
professional service and the visa application case outcomes that we have
direct control over. Our Service Guarantee DOES NOT cover:
- Misleading or incorrect information provided by clients.
- Failure by clients to comply with the official immigration
regulations, to complete the full application process, or to provide
the required documentation or evidence.
- Failure by clients to comply with the conditions of their
visa which are under their control, such as obtaining a qualifying job
offer, passing an English language test, passing a skills assessment,
obtaining professional registration etc.
- Changes in a client's personal situation or status, after
becoming a visa processing client of the Migration Bureau, which render
them ineligible.
- Negative outcomes where clients were forewarned of the possible risks.
- Unexpected changes in government immigration policy.
- Situations where an application was prepared and lodged in
good faith, based on the prevailing immigration regulations at the
time, and the Minister of Immigration or Immigration Authorities later
choose to return an application for any reason, with or without a refund
of the original application fee.
- Disputed decisions by immigration officials that have a reasonable likelihood of success upon re-lodgement, review or appeal.
- Any third party costs incurred by clients in their attempt
to meet the prevailing immigration policy, such as English language
testing fees, medical fees, legal, accounting or other professional
fees, document or translation preparation charges, or travel costs to
attend job or sponsorship interviews etc.
No refunds will be given in any of the above situations, however we
may be able to offer other solutions if any of these situations occur.
