Consultation

We do not normally offer free consultations to the first-time clients because we do not like the practice of 'selling' our services. Many 'free consults' are just that - pushing a client to sign an agreement and this is definitely not our style. We respect your time and want to provide great value for the time you spend at our office.

The fee for one consultation is credited to any services that you hire us to perform within 3 months, which means that a consultation will become FREE and will be deducted from the price of your visa application.

Please note - consultation scope does not include checking application forms, cover letters and other documents for a visa application you intend to lodge.
