Frequently asked questions

  • Is Australian immigration easy?

    Immigration to Australia became very complex, therefore we cannot say that it would be easy, but it is the specialty of our company to make immigration as easy as possible for you.

  • How much does the Australian immigration cost?

    The cost of immigrating to Australia is influenced by several factors, such as the type (subclass) of the visa and other additional costs, like the official translation and certification of documents, as well as our company's fee.

  • How long does the Australian immigration process take?

    This is also a question with many possible answers, because there are as many possible deadlines as visa types (subclasses).

  • If I am granted an Australian immigration visa, who is allowed to accompany me?

    Generally speaking, spouses and children fall into the purview of the visa, but siblings and parents do not.

  • Does Australian immigration have an age limit?

    This also depends on the type of the visa. For profession-based applicants the upper limit is 45 years. But for example there is no age restriction for partner visas.

  • How long does it take to become an Australian citizen?

    In order to be granted Australian citizenship, you are required to have lived in Astralia for at least 4 years, and for a minimum 1 year as permanent resident.

  • Based on what does the Australian Department of Home Affairs decide, who is allowed to immigrate?

    There are several evaluation types, but most of the Hungarian immigrants enter Australia on a professional basis, either independently, based on a scoring system, or through employer or state sponsorship.

  • How is the score system structured?

    You may be given points based on your age, your education, your relevant professional experience and your English skills. Extra points may be awarded for state sponsorship, or if you have worked or studied previously in Australia, and for some other criteria.

  • Are English language skills necessary for Australian immigration?

    Absolutely. You are required to prove the level of your current English skills with a valid language exam accepted by the Australian Department of Home Affairs.

  • What kind of language exams does the Australian Department of Home Affairs accept?

    IELTS exams are the most widely accepted, but the Australian government accepts the following English language exams as well:

    • OET
    • TOEFL Ibt
    • Pearson (PTE Academic)
    • Cambridge English: Advanced (CAE)
    • IELTS.

  • What is the minimum level of English skills I need?

    Again it depends on the visa subclass, but it can be stated that you need to achieve an each band 6.0 on the IELTS General Module to get a skilled permanent visa. However, an IELTS 5.0 can already be sufficient for an employer sponsored visa.

  • How long does the evaluation of the Australian visas usually take?

    This is a very complex question. We can generally say, that there are as many different evaluation times, as there are different type of visas.
    Usually the visas that grant less rights (eg. eVisitor visa) are evaluated the fastest, they are often evaluated within 24 hours. The evaluation of the visas that have more requirements and offer more power, for example the work and/or immigration visas, can last for 6-12 months.
    It’s important to note, that the imposed evaluation time can be changed by the Australian government without prior warning and that there is no upper limit for the evaluation time of the Australian visas.
