Please note: Abalos Migration is a referral service — not a migration agency. We are not registered migration agents or legal practitioners, and we do not provide immigration assistance or advice. All advice on your visa options, eligibility and application comes from the independent MARA-registered agent or migration lawyer we connect you with.

Why use Abalos Migration

Skip the guesswork of finding the right professional

There are thousands of migration agents in Australia, and the wrong fit can cost you time, money and opportunities. We do the matching, so you start with someone qualified for your specific case.

Registered professionals only

We refer exclusively to MARA-registered migration agents and Australian legal practitioners — never to unregistered operators.

Completely free for you

You pay us nothing. Where a referral proceeds, we may receive a fee from the professional — never from you.

Matched to your case

A partner visa is not a skilled visa. We connect you with someone who actually works in your area of migration.

No obligation

A referral is an introduction, not a commitment. You decide whether to engage the professional after speaking with them.

How it works

Four simple steps to the right expert

A straightforward introduction process — usually completed within one business day.

  1. 01

    Tell us your situation

    Share a few details about your circumstances and what you're hoping to achieve in Australia.

  2. 02

    We find your match

    We identify a MARA-registered agent or migration lawyer in our network whose experience fits your case.

  3. 03

    You're introduced

    We connect you directly with them. All advice on your options and eligibility comes from the professional, not from us.

  4. 04

    They handle your case

    If you choose to engage them, your agent or lawyer manages the advice, preparation and lodgement from there.

Good to know

Frequently asked questions

Still unsure about something? Get in touch and we'll happily explain how the referral works — no obligation.

Are you registered migration agents?

No. Abalos Migration is an independent referral service. We are not MARA-registered migration agents or legal practitioners, and we do not provide immigration assistance, advice or application services. Our role is to understand what you need and connect you with a registered professional who can help.

What does your service cost me?

Nothing. Our referral service is completely free to you. If you go on to engage a professional we introduce you to, we may receive a referral fee from them. Any professional fees for your visa matter are agreed directly between you and the agent or lawyer.

How do you decide who to refer me to?

We look at your visa pathway, your circumstances and your location, then match you with someone in our network who works in that area — a MARA-registered migration agent, or a migration lawyer where a matter is complex or involves an appeal.

Can I check that the agent is genuinely registered?

Yes — and we encourage it. Every registered migration agent has a MARN you can verify on the official Office of the MARA register at mara.gov.au. Australian legal practitioners can be verified with their state or territory legal admission authority.

My visa was refused — can you still help?

We can connect you with a professional experienced in refusals, cancellations and ART review. Strict time limits apply after a refusal, so it's best to get in touch as soon as possible so the professional can advise you on your options.

Do you help people anywhere in Australia or overseas?

Yes. We refer clients right across Australia — including Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Canberra and regional areas — as well as clients currently overseas. The professionals in our network work remotely by phone, email and video, so your location is rarely a barrier.
