FAQs about Australian visas

Expert answers from the legal team.

What makes Salvo Migration different from a migration agency?

Salvo Migration is a licensed legal practice. Lawyers lead legal strategy and advice, supported by the firm's migration and paralegal team.

How much does it cost to apply for a partner visa?

Costs can vary, but include government application fees, medicals, police checks, and optional legal fees. We'll provide a clear breakdown with no hidden costs.

Do you help with more than just partner visas?

Partner visas are our sole focus — plus everything that comes with them: visitor visas so you can be together during processing, refusals, appeals and tribunal representation. If your situation involves a different visa type, book a call and we'll point you in the right direction.

Can I apply for a partner visa while on a bridging visa?

It may be possible, but additional legal criteria and application requirements can apply. Your current visa history and conditions need to be assessed before relying on an onshore pathway.

What happens if my visa has already been refused?

We specialise in visa refusals and tribunal appeals. Book a consultation and we'll review your options for reapplying or challenging the decision.

How long does the partner visa process take?

Processing times change and vary by subclass and individual matter. Check the current Department of Home Affairs processing-time guide and discuss how the published range relates to your circumstances.

Do you work with people outside Brisbane?

Absolutely. While we're based in Brisbane, we work with clients across Australia and internationally via Zoom or phone.

Can I prepare my visa myself with your support?

Yes. Start with our free checklist and Relationship Statement Guide. You can also create a free Veazy account to explore the broader connected visa workspace.

Ready when you are

Skip the confusion. Get a clearer view of the next step.

Discuss your circumstances, likely pathway and legal-service options with a migration lawyer, then decide whether representation is right for you.
