Migration agent, immigration consultant or lawyer? Check before you book in Macquarie Park

  • Migration agents are also called immigration agents, visa agents or immigration consultants. Under Australian law, only registered migration agents and legal practitioners can charge you for visa help, and there's no separate licence for consultants, so a consultant in Macquarie Park who charges for it should have a MARN.
  • Look up the agent's MARN on the official register. Every agent page on Migratio shows the MARN.
  • Looking for an immigration lawyer in Macquarie Park? Since 22 March 2021, Australian lawyers can give immigration help as part of their legal practice without registering, so lawyers don't appear on that register. Check a lawyer with the legal professional body in New South Wales.
  • Your registered agent must give you the Consumer Guide.
  • Agents must keep money you pay in advance in a separate account until they provide their services, and charge fees that are fair for the work.
  • Warning signs, according to Home Affairs: no MARN, no contract with terms and conditions or no receipt, a promised visa outcome, an extra fee to have the visa issued, or payment through a private transfer or personal bank account.

What a first consultation costs in Macquarie Park

The median consultation fee quoted to applicants in New South Wales is $200. Half of all quotes fall between $187 and $308. Each agent's typical quote counts once, so one very active agent cannot move the figure.

That is the price of a first paid conversation — usually 30 to 60 minutes reviewing your situation, with the pathway, costs and timeline in writing afterwards. A full application engagement is priced separately by the agent and commonly runs from roughly $2,500 for a straightforward student or visitor matter to $4,000–$8,000 for a partner visa file.

Fewer than five Macquarie Park agents have quoted through Migratio, so these figures cover New South Wales: 386 quotes from 12 agents, quoted on real applicant briefs in the twelve months to 2026-11-01. Every quote is written by the agent for a specific applicant; Migratio does not set or suggest fees.

Longest-registered migration agents in Macquarie Park

State nomination in New South Wales

NSW runs its programme through Investment NSW rather than a separate portal for expressions of interest — applicants lodge an Expression of Interest in SkillSelect naming NSW as their preferred state. NSW keeps its own Skills List, assessed at the occupation level, and this list differs between the statewide subclass 190 and the regional subclass 491. The 491 pathway itself has several distinct routes — current employment in regional NSW, an invitation based on NSW residence, or recent graduation from a regional NSW institution — rather than a single set of criteria.

Nominates for: 190, 491

What Investment NSW (NSW Government) asks for:

  • a valid skills assessment in an occupation on both the relevant Department of Home Affairs skilled occupation list and the NSW Skills List
  • an Expression of Interest lodged in SkillSelect naming NSW as the nominating state
  • for the subclass 190 pathway, one of: current employment of at least 20 hours a week in the nominated occupation in NSW, at least 6 months' continuous residence in NSW, or at least 6 months' continuous residence offshore
  • for the subclass 491 pathway, meeting the specific route applied under — current regional NSW employment in the nominated occupation, an Investment NSW residence-based invitation, or recent graduation from a regional NSW institution
  • the standard Department of Home Affairs points test pass mark

For subclass 491 purposes, regional NSW is everywhere in the state outside Greater Sydney. Newcastle/Lake Macquarie and Wollongong/Illawarra carry a lesser Category 2 regional status than the rest of regional NSW, but both remain outside Greater Sydney and so are eligible for the 491 pathway. Sydney itself is not a designated regional area.

Programme details as at 2026-08-19, from Investment NSW (NSW Government). Nomination criteria and occupation lists change frequently — confirm the current position on the official site before relying on it. Whether a particular situation fits a nomination pathway is a question for a MARA-registered agent.

The median consultation fee quoted to applicants in New South Wales through Migratio is $200, with half of quotes between $187 and $308 (386 quotes from 12 agents in the twelve months to 2026-11-01). That covers a first paid conversation; a full application is priced separately and commonly runs from about $2,500 for a simple matter to $4,000–$8,000 for a partner visa.
How many migration agents are there in Macquarie Park?

Do I need an agent who is actually based in Macquarie Park?
No. Home Affairs lodgement is entirely online and most consultations run by video or phone, so a registered agent anywhere in Australia can act for you. A local agent helps if you want to meet in person or your matter involves a New South Wales employer or state nomination. Migratio lists Macquarie Park agents first here, and every New South Wales agent at /agents/in/nsw.
How quickly do agents respond to New South Wales applicants?
In the last 90 days, 28 applicants in New South Wales submitted a brief through Migratio and 27 of them had at least one registered agent confirm with a consultation fee — usually the same day, because agents whose practice matches a brief are notified the moment it is submitted.
Is an immigration consultant in Macquarie Park the same as a migration agent?
In Australia, only registered migration agents and legal practitioners can lawfully charge you for immigration assistance, according to Home Affairs, and there's no separate licence for immigration consultants. A consultant who charges for visa help in Macquarie Park should have a MARN you can check on the official register, as every agent listed on this page does.
Can I use an immigration lawyer in Macquarie Park instead of a migration agent?
Yes. Since 22 March 2021, Australian lawyers can give immigration assistance as part of their legal practice without registering as migration agents, so they don't appear on the register of migration agents. Check a lawyer with the legal professional body in New South Wales. The agents on this page are registered migration agents.
What does MARA-registered mean?
MARA (the Office of the Migration Agents Registration Authority, sitting within Home Affairs as OMARA) is the federal regulator for Australian migration agents. Registration requires a Graduate Diploma in Australian Migration Law and Practice, ongoing CPD, professional indemnity insurance, and adherence to a binding Code of Conduct. Every agent listed on Migratio is checked against the public MARA register when our data is refreshed — always verify current registration on the official OMARA register.
How does Migratio's matching work?
Tell us about your visa situation once. Migratio sends your brief to every registered agent whose practice matches your visa type and state; agents who want the case confirm within minutes with their consultation fee, and you compare and book the one you prefer. Free for applicants — you pay only the consultation fee of the agent you book, and the platform fee comes out of that fee, not on top of it.
What does it cost to use Migratio?
Nothing for applicants. You pay only the consultation fee charged by the agent you book — across Migratio the median quoted consult is about $220 (most fall between $150 and $275) — plus any agent service fees if you later engage them for your full application. Migratio's platform fee is deducted from the agent's consultation fee, not added to it.
