Frequently asked questions — Brisbane migration agents

Do I need a MARA-registered migration agent in Brisbane?+

You are not required to use a migration agent, but for complex visa applications — skilled migration, employer sponsorship, partner visas, or cases with prior refusals — a MARA-registered agent in Brisbane can significantly improve your outcome. Verify any agent's registration at mara.gov.au before engaging them.

How do I verify a MARA agent in Brisbane is legitimate?+

Every MARA agent holds a Migration Agent Registration Number (MARN). Visit mara.gov.au and enter the MARN or the agent's name to confirm their registration is current and has no disciplinary history. All agents listed on ConsultancyCheck have their MARN displayed on their profile.

How much does a migration agent in Brisbane charge?+

In Brisbane, expect to pay approximately AUD $1,500–$5,000 for student visas, $3,500–$7,000 for skilled migration (189/190), $3,500–$6,500 for partner visas, and $4,000–$9,000 for employer-sponsored visas. Always request a written costs agreement before proceeding.

Can a Brisbane migration agent help me get QLD state nomination?+

Yes. Queensland (QLD) runs its own skilled nomination program under subclass 190 and 491. A Brisbane-based MARA agent familiar with QLD nomination criteria, eligible occupations, and skills assessment requirements can prepare a stronger application and advise on the points threshold for your occupation.

What is the difference between a migration agent and an immigration lawyer in Brisbane?+

For routine visa applications and tribunal appeals, a MARA-registered agent and an immigration lawyer can both represent you. You need a lawyer when the matter goes to Federal Court, involves character cancellation, or overlaps with criminal law. Agents are typically less expensive for standard applications.
