Finding help you can trust
In Australia, immigration assistance can only be given by a registered migration agent or an Australian legal practitioner. Everyone else giving you advice is either being generous or breaking the law.
Before you pay anyone
- Ask for their MARN (Migration Agents Registration Number) or legal practising certificate.
- Check that number yourself on the public register. Do not accept a screenshot.
- Get a written agreement with a clear split between professional fees and government charges.
- Walk away from anyone who guarantees an outcome. Nobody can.
- Never let anyone submit information you know to be untrue - it is your application and your ban risk.
You may not need one
Straightforward applications with clean histories are lodged successfully without an agent every day. Consider professional help if you have a refusal or cancellation history, health or character complications, a borderline skills assessment, or you are choosing between routes where the wrong call costs years.
The directory is opening soon
We are building a directory of MARN-registered agents and immigration lawyers, verified against the public register before listing. Listings will be clearly marked as paid placements. Nothing on this site is a recommendation or endorsement, and we never sell or pass on your details.
For migration agents and lawyers
myPRJourney reaches people at the exact moment they are deciding which pathway to pursue - before they have chosen an adviser. If you are a MARN-registered agent or an Australian legal practitioner and want to be listed when the directory opens, get in touch and we will add you to the waitlist.
