Client Success Story
From International Student to Permanent Resident in 3 Years
An IT graduate from India approached us while still studying. With careful planning, we guided him through a strategic Graduate Visa (485) period, during which he gained employment with a regional business. This qualified him for state nomination under the 491 visa, leading to permanent residency via the 191 pathway in just under 3 years.
"Visa Green's long-term planning was worth every dollar. Without their guidance, I would have made several critical mistakes in my visa choices. Their strategic approach cut at least 2 years off my PR journey." — Raj, Software Engineer
Frequently Asked Questions
When is the ideal time to start migration planning?
The earlier the better. Ideally, planning should begin while you're still on a student visa or at least 12 months before your current visa expires. This gives you maximum flexibility to position yourself optimally for permanent residency.
How frequently will my migration plan be updated?
We review and update your migration plan quarterly as standard. However, we also provide immediate updates whenever significant immigration policy changes occur that might impact your pathway.
Can I still benefit from planning if I've already had a visa refusal?
Absolutely. In fact, strategic planning becomes even more crucial after a refusal. We'll assess the refusal reasons and develop alternative pathways that address previous issues and maximize your chances of success.
Is regional migration really worth considering?
For many clients, regional migration offers significant advantages, including lower points requirements, additional visa options, and faster pathways to permanent residency. Our data shows clients who pursue regional pathways often achieve PR 12-18 months faster than metropolitan-only strategies.
Will my family be included in the migration plan?
Yes. Our planning considers your entire family unit. We develop strategies that accommodate partners and dependent children, ensuring no one is left behind in your migration journey.
How do you handle unexpected immigration policy changes?
Our team monitors immigration policy daily. When changes occur, we immediately assess the impact on each client's strategy and develop contingency plans. Our diversified pathway approach means we rarely rely on just one visa option, providing built-in alternatives if your primary pathway is affected.
