Your Pathway to Success
Initial Consultation: Understanding Your Aspirations
The very first step before application lodging is to understand in-depth an applicant's real situation and devise ways in which this information can be described to visa authorities in an effective manner. Application structure becomes clear after this initial consultation and helps in streamlining the further process.
Interview Preparation: Confidence for Success
An officer with the Department of Home Affairs will conduct an interview after your application passes the eligibility criteria. The motive of this interview is to gather additional information and to review your claims of protection.
After the interview stage, security and health checks are conducted on the applicant to ensure public health safety and national security.
Final decision is taken by the Department of Home Affairs. After the visa is granted, certain conditions are imposed on protection visa holders that are not imposed on other types of visa holders owing to the conditions protection visa holders claim to face back home.
Document Preparation: Ensuring a Comprehensive Application
Application is lodged in the Department of Home Affairs. It can be lodged in online mode or in person at the immigration office. Application must be carefully prepared with support documents attached in an organised manner. No document should be left for later unless prescribed by the immigration office. An incomplete application is liable to get rejected.
Application Submission: Navigating the Paperwork
After the successful submission of your complete application, the Department of Home Affairs conducts an initial assessment of your application to see whether you meet the eligibility criteria for granting an Australia protection visa or not. After your application clears this stage, you move to the interview stage.
