Frequently Asked Questions

I am currently in Australia. Can I receive support from a Registered Migration Agent who speaks Turkish? +
Yes. Adam (Gürkan) Koçoğlu is a Registered Migration Agent (MARN 2418576) based in Perth, Western Australia, and provides support to onshore applicants in both English and Turkish. Consultations can be held in person at our Perth CBD office, or via Zoom or telephone from anywhere in Australia.
Can I apply for a different visa while I am in Australia (an onshore application)? +
In many cases, applicants who hold a valid visa while in Australia may lodge an onshore application for a different visa subclass. However, eligibility depends on the conditions attached to your current visa, the criteria for the chosen subclass, and your individual circumstances. For example, a "No Further Stay" condition (Condition 8503) on your visa may restrict your ability to apply onshore. Your eligibility should be assessed in detail by our Registered Migration Agent before lodgement.
Can I apply for a partner visa while I am in Australia? +
For applicants who are in Australia, the onshore partner visa pathway is Subclass 820/801. Eligibility is assessed on factors such as the nature of the relationship, the supporting evidence provided, and your visa status at the time of application. If you do not hold a valid visa at the time of lodgement, Schedule 3 criteria may apply. As this can directly affect the outcome of your application, it is important that your circumstances are assessed in advance by our Registered Migration Agent.
My visa is about to expire. Can I remain in Australia lawfully during an onshore application? +
When you lodge a valid onshore application while your current visa is still in effect, a Bridging Visa generally comes into effect, allowing you to remain in Australia lawfully while your application is being processed. The type of Bridging Visa and the work and travel rights it grants vary according to your circumstances. Lodging your application before your current visa expires is very important to protecting your lawful status.
How do the conditions on my current visa (work hours, Condition 8503, etc.) affect my onshore options? +
The conditions on your current visa can affect both your rights while in Australia and your onshore application options. For example, a "No Further Stay" condition (Condition 8503) may restrict certain types of applications, while student visa work-hour conditions may affect your employment. Before making any application, it is important to have your visa conditions reviewed by our Registered Migration Agent to avoid non-compliance and potential refusal risks.
My visa application was refused. Can I seek a review while I am in Australia? +
Many visa decisions are eligible for review by the Administrative Review Tribunal (ART). Review applications are subject to strict time limits, and it is critical that these deadlines are not missed. In addition, where an applicant's visa has been refused while they are in Australia, the types of onshore applications they may lodge can be restricted under the Migration Act 1958. We recommend that your situation and available options be assessed by our Registered Migration Agent without delay.
Can I apply for a skilled visa while I am in Australia? +
Certain skilled visa subclasses can be lodged onshore by applicants who are in Australia. Eligibility depends on a range of factors, including a positive skills assessment, English language proficiency, age, your occupation, and the criteria for the chosen subclass. The state-specific migration pathways of Perth and Western Australia may also offer additional options worth exploring. Your eligibility is assessed by our Registered Migration Agent.
How does Australian Migration Co work with clients who are in Australia? +
We offer in-person consultations at our Perth CBD office and serve clients across Australia via Zoom or telephone. From eligibility assessment through to document preparation and application management, we provide support throughout the entire process in both English and Turkish. Under the supervision of Registered Migration Agent Adam (Gürkan) Koçoğlu (MARN 2418576), your file is managed professionally from start to finish.
