Perth’s rich history of migration

The history of migration in Perth is a diverse tale that began with the Noongar Aboriginal people inhabiting the region for thousands of years. Early European settlement saw the arrival of British settlers in the 19th century, followed by a significant influx of immigrants during the gold rush era. Post-World War II, immigrants from Europe, particularly Italy and Greece, settled in Perth, adding to its cultural diversity. 

In recent years, Perth has attracted immigrants from across the world, including Asia and the Middle East, enriching the city’s culture, cuisine, traditions, and overall identity.

Frequently asked questions

How much does an immigration lawyer cost in Perth?

Migration lawyers in Perth may charge differently based on their pricing model and experience. The cost might also vary depending on the complexity of your case, the legal services you require, and the lawyer’s qualifications.

It’s important to discuss fees with your lawyer during your initial consultation and obtain a written fee agreement detailing the services to be provided and the associated costs. 

At Australian Migration Lawyers, we will outline a fixed fee structure tailored to your application needs, which means there are no hidden fees later down the line.

How can I talk to an immigration lawyer for free in Perth?

Many migration law firms charge for initial consultations, making it difficult to understand your options before making a commitment. 

Australian Migration Lawyers offer an initial consultation so you can explore your visa options, and we can address any queries you may have. We then issue you a detailed quote for our ongoing services that you can consider before hiring a visa lawyer.

Which visa is best for parents in Perth?

There are a number of sponsored, aged, and contributory parent visas available, and choosing the best one depends on your circumstances, whether your parents want to stay temporarily or move here permanently, their age, your financial situations, and more.

Contact one of our Australian Migration Lawyers, who will be able to guide you through the visa options and find the most suitable one for your parents.

What is a Bridging Visa A (BVA)?

A Bridging Visa A (BVA) is a temporary visa that lets you remain in Australia in the time between your substantive visa expiring and your new substantive visa being progressed. You may be permitted to work in the country, depending on your specific visa conditions - your grant letter will confirm all the necessary details.

If you have had a substantive visa refusal or your visa has been referred to the Administrative Appeals Tribunal, reach out to Australian Migration Lawyers who have experience dealing with these matters.

Can I leave Perth on a Bridging Visa A?

You can leave Perth and travel inside of Australia while on a Bridging Visa A (BVA); however you cannot leave the country - doing so will end your BVA with immediate effect.
