Question

How can i apply permanent residency and were to get a lawyer here in australia?

Answer 1

You can apply yourself. However, you must make sure that you answer all the questions,and enclose all the relevant documents otherwise it will be sent back to you and this may mean long delays. You will have to get a Police Check from your country of origin. Also if you have any medical conditions then it is best to have a check up with the specialist and ask for a report which you can then enclose at the time of submission.

There are many immigration agents that can do it for you for a fee.

For details check out www.immi.gov.au for Permancy.

When you get your Permanent status, you will have to wait four years before you can apply for citizenship

You don't need a lawyer, just complete an application. See www.immi.gov.au for all the information about how to apply.
