Dear Wendy and the amazing Work Visa Lawyers’ Team,
My wife and I would like to thank you for all your efforts not only in securing our permanent residence visas but also re-uniting us after many years of living separate lives. COVID-19 made us feel that our unity was just plain impossible. I’ve had to pursue a relentless search in finding agents and/or lawyers to help with my permanent residence visa which unfortunately wasn’t great and was filled with disappointment and rejection. Throughout my journey with different migration agents and lawyers, a common theme I noticed was the blatant disregard of my personal life choices and the obvious impact of migration policy changes upon my wellbeing.
I remember my consultation with Chris Johnston which was such a great pleasure. Chris imbued an amazing sense of self-actualisation and... Read more

Visa Grant Date: 27 August 2020
We would like to thank the Work Visa Lawyers, particularly Chris who worked with us in the earlier stages of preparing our dossier and Wendy who helped us review all our documents.
Special thanks must go to Wendy who has given us many good ideas for improving our application, pointing out our shortcomings and guidance as the professional agent.
This visa would not have been granted if we didn't have your patience and unfailing support during the months we were exiled of the request for more information from the case officer.
Finally, we would like to thank you again for every effort you have made and wish you and your team the best of success in all of your future.
We would highly recommend your services to anybody.

Read moreWe would like to express our gratitude and say a big thank you to Luke Edwards for the fantastic job he did to help us achieve residency in Australia for the whole family in just five months!
Luke performed his duties in a timely and professional manner. I must say that he exceeded our expectations by making a complex three-step process look so easy. Having entrusted Luke to deal with the employer sponsorship and all the paperwork involved, gave us peace of mind and the space to focus on finding a job, accommodation and schooling for the children. Now that we obtained our residency, we can move forward with our future plans with confidence. Well done to all the team and keep up the good work!Robert

From: United Kingdom
Testimonial received: 23 May 2016
Dear Chris,
I just wanted to take the opportunity to thank you for everything that you did helping us to gain my temporary partner visa and health waiver.
At a time that was overwhelming and confusing, your calm manner really helped to focus us at every step of the way. You made a clear plan of the information and documents we needed to gather and kept us informed throughout the process.
Living in the country it was great that we could Skype you to discuss progress rather than having to make the 4 hour round trip. I really appreciated that you were honest and didn’t make any promises about what could be achieved.

Dear Wendy and Chris,
I’ve never thought about I could immigrate to Australia one day. Today - 28th Feb 2022 , you both helped me make it happen!
When I looked back to the whole process, it only took me around four months to obtain the GTI PR visa for my whole family. First round of interview with Chris in Oct. 2021 - his professional advice and experience really inspires me to give a try for GTI application. It’s really hard to get started especially find a best nominee and all the supporting from customers/ previous colleague in proving myself have such expertise to fulfil the requirement and more and more steps …... I just couldn’t imagine how I could go through all those steps without having Wendy’s systemic support... Read more
