Hi, I’m Stephen from Irish Around Oz.
I have been running Irish Around Oz for over 10 years, helping people from all over the world move to Australia, stay longer, and build a life here.
Alongside Irish Around Oz, I also run some of the largest Irish communities in Australia, including Irish Around Sydney and Irish Around Melbourne.
Over the years, I’ve seen every type of Australian visa situation, from employer sponsorship and skilled migration to partner visas and permanent residency.
Visa questions come up daily across my communities. People are often confused, overwhelmed, or unsure who to trust, especially with so much outdated or conflicting advice online.
That’s why this page exists. After seeing the same visa questions come up day after day, I personally reached out to the most recommended, MARA registered migration professionals across our communities and brought them together in one place. These are trusted visa experts who have already helped hundreds of people from our groups across Australia.
If you are unsure which visa suits your situation, fill out the short form below, and you will be matched with the right expert.
It takes a couple of minutes and could save you months of confusion.
