At CECA, we offer different kinds of migration services for students, working professionals and tourists. For that there are different kinds of Visas available each with very specific requirements. Check which one would be best suited for your purpose.
Skilled Visa
This type of Visa is issued to those people who are believed to have some exceptional talent or skill which in turn can contribute to the Australian economy, to fulfill the country’s own shortage of skilled resources. Permanent residence is offered to qualifying candidates. Exceptional University or trade qualification is the eligibility criteria for this kind of Visa.
Family Visa
This type of Visa is issued for the family members of Australian Citizens or the permanent residents of the country. Since there are many different kinds of visas available like spouse, prospective marriage, interdependent partner, parent and child, there is lot of complications involved. We assist you in choosing the right ones and also updating you about the eligibility and the possibility of success in getting the required Visa.
Student Visa
This type of Visa is only for those traveling to Australia for higher education. Since Australia has grown to be popular destination for studies the requirement for this kind of Visa has grown substantially.
Business Skills Visa
This type of Visa is primarily for successful business people, who are beckoned to settle down in Australia so that they can make valuable contribution to Australian economy. Successful senior executives and investors are also eligible for this category of Visa.
Visitor's Visa
People who intend to visit Australia for a short time, up to 12 months, are eligible for this Visa. These are mainly issued to tourists who intend to holiday in the country or to visit a family member or friend.
Working Holiday Visa
For young people who wish to travel around Australia over a period of up to 12 months and engage in some light, part time employment can apply for this kind of Visa.
Partner Visa
When an Australian resident enters into a long term relationship with a non resident it creates the need for a Visa to bring that partner to the country and make them a legal resident. The process is not an automatic one, an application needs to be made along with detailed evidence to prove that the relationship is indeed a committed and genuine one. Spouses, fiancés, as well as interdependent, i.e., same sex partner, are eligible for this type of Visa.
Employer Nomination Scheme
This type of Visa is issued to those people who travel to Australia on a temporary or permanent basis to fulfill a specific work related requirement which cannot be met locally. Australian or overseas based employers often recruit skilled workers to work in Australia for a particular amount of time, permanently if needed, for very specific duties.
Refugee Visas
Since Australia is quite a peaceful country, many people sort to take refuge within the boundaries of the country. For this purpose, refugee visas are required if they want to stay there legally. To be granted the Permanent Protection Visa they need to fulfill the health, character and security requirements as per the Australian standards.
Migration Review Tribunal (MRT)
For those whose Visa has been rejected for some cause can apply to Migration Review Tribunal (MRT) for a review. Not all cancellations can be reviewed the departments decision maker would inform you if you are eligible for review. Usually under MRT jurisdiction, employer nominated can be reviewed. Also Refugee Visa sub class 200 can be reviewed by MRT if the Visa holder is already present in Australia at time of cancellation.
Submission for Section 20 notices
Students who have entered and residing in Australia under a student visa may be excluded from a university as a result of poor academic progress. The students then have a time period of 20 working days after the RTO intends to report to DIAC. Within those 20 days the student has to lodge a written appeal to the third party (ACPET) about the University’s intention of excluding them. The absence of any such appeal will lead the University to issue a Section 20 Notice mailed to the student’s current address.
The student then needs to report to the Department of Immigration and Citizenship office within 28 days of the Section 20 Notice being issued. With the issue of the Section 20 notice, the student loses all ground for compassionate considerations. Their Visa would stand to be cancelled unless they can prove that:
- The wrong student is reported
- The section 20 is faulty
- Or some exceptional circumstances as listed under the strict migration regulations
Failure to report to the Department of Immigration and Citizenship within 28 days will result in an automatic cancellation of Visa without any consideration for the absence.
