Before you engage an agent
- Confirm their MARN on the public register yourself - do not accept a screenshot.
- Get a written agreement separating professional fees from government charges.
- Walk away from anyone who guarantees an outcome. Nobody can.
Registered migration agents
We are building a directory of MARN-registered agents and immigration lawyers. Listings are checked against the public register before they appear.

General information, not migration advice. myPRJourney summarises publicly available information about Australian visas so you can understand your options. It does not assess your case, and it is not a substitute for advice from a registered migration agent (MARN) or Australian legal practitioner. Migration rules, occupation lists, income thresholds and state nomination criteria change frequently and sometimes without notice. This page was last reviewed on 21 July 2026.
