As an experienced immigration lawyer, I offer a quick review. Let me tell you your next best step – even if think you know it all already. 😉
I take the time to understand your circumstances and the unique aspects of your case. My role is to draft your forms and submissions, ensuring that the strongest arguments are put forward. I also address any negative aspects of your case in a full, frank, and professional manner, giving your application the best chance of success.
Once we’ve reviewed everything together and you’ve had the opportunity to provide feedback, I proceed with the formal lodgment of your application. This is usually with the Department of Home Affairs, but in some cases, it may be with the Minister, a Court, or a Tribunal. My goal is to ensure your application is as strong as possible before submission.
I liaise with the Department on your behalf, managing communication and follow-ups to keep your case moving. My role is to act as a buffer between you, the visa applicant or sponsor, and the case officer handling your application. I protect my clients from unnecessary delays and legally inappropriate decisions. Let me protect you.
A persuasive submission must be clear and to the point. Decision-makers don’t have time to sift through unnecessary information. My job is to help them make a favourable decision as quickly as possible by providing only the most relevant details. Submissions that are too lengthy or complicated can be counterproductive. I ensure that every argument I put forward is focused, well-structured, and strategically aligned with the outcome you seek.
Providing excessive or irrelevant information can sometimes work against you. I’ve seen cases where unnecessary documents raise issues that weren’t originally a concern. I regularly review submissions prepared by others, identifying legal errors and exploring appeal opportunities for clients who have been let down by poor advice. My approach is to prepare a concise, well-reasoned submission that strengthens your case rather than complicating it.
I’m often surprised by how overly complex some immigration submissions can be. Many advisors mistakenly believe that longer documents make for stronger arguments. In reality, an effective submission isn’t about length—it’s about clarity and precision. Every point made should advance your case. The focus should be on quality, not quantity.
A well-prepared submission includes:
• A succinct statement explaining why a favourable decision should be made and why it can be made quickly.
• A clear chronology outlining key events in your immigration journey. This is typically presented in a three-column table: one for the date, one for the event, and one for an explanation of its relevance, along with any supporting documents.
• Relevant supporting documents with a properly indexed list, ensuring that each document is labelled and referenced correctly within the chronology.
That’s all a submission needs.
Overcomplicating it with unnecessary material does more harm than good. My approach is strategic, ensuring that decision-makers have exactly what they need to make a favourable decision in the shortest possible time.
