Partner migration
Advice on partner migration options, eligibility questions and the preparation of evidence relevant to the relationship and application.
Individuals & families
Clear advice for personal migration matters
Advice on partner, family, skilled and employer-sponsored pathways, shaped around the individual facts.
Eligibility depends on the circumstances of the applicant and the migration law and policy that apply at the relevant time.
Understanding the available options
Start with the facts, not a list of visas.
Australian migration pathways can depend on several connected facts. Vela Legal provides direct advice on what those facts mean, which options may warrant further assessment and what careful preparation would involve.
Every matter is led directly by Principal Lawyer Ron Shao, with a defined strategy and a clear scope of work agreed before legal services begin.
Areas of advice
Personal migration pathways
Parent and family visas
Assessment of available family migration options and advice on the legal and evidentiary requirements that apply to the individual circumstances.
Skilled migration
Advice on skilled migration pathways and the issues that may affect eligibility, including the applicant’s background and the law in force at the time.
Employer-sponsored pathways
Advice for individual applicants whose temporary or permanent migration pathway involves an Australian employer and a connected sponsorship or nomination.
A careful assessment
Advice is specific to the person and the matter.
Vela Legal does not assume that a particular pathway is available before the relevant facts and law have been considered.
Where a matter also involves a refusal, cancellation, character issue or review question, the legal position may need to be assessed promptly.
