Looking for a Townsville immigration lawyer or migration agent for a partner visa?
For Australian partner-visa work, both registered migration agents and Australian legal practitioners may provide immigration assistance within their professional authority. Check the individual responsible for the work, the partner-visa scope and how the remote service will operate before paying a professional fee.
Registered migration agent
Check the person on the Office of the Migration Agents Registration Authority register and confirm the registration is current. A Townsville-facing business name or advertisement does not by itself verify the individual giving immigration assistance.
Australian immigration lawyer
Check the lawyer through the relevant legal-profession register. Salvo Migration's lawyers are Queensland legal practitioners working from the Brisbane office and assisting Townsville partner-visa clients remotely; the page does not claim a Townsville office.
Read the current Home Affairs guidance on who can provide immigration assistance. Then compare who will assess the pathway, prepare forms and evidence, communicate with Home Affairs and manage later requests under the quoted scope.
Work remotely in the same Queensland time zone.
Salvo Migration's office is in Brisbane. We assist Townsville clients by phone and video and do not claim to have a Townsville office. Both cities share Queensland time, making ordinary business-hours appointments straightforward.
Clear communication, wherever you are.
Meet by phone or video, exchange documents through the agreed channels and know the legal scope and fixed professional fee before engagement.

Common questions, answered by lawyers.
How long does a partner visa take?
Processing times vary depending on the visa type and complexity of your case — current times change with the pathway, application and Department caseload. Check Home Affairs before relying on an estimate.
Can I apply in a de facto relationship?
The 12-month rule generally concerns the duration of the de facto relationship immediately before application, not simply a lease period; registered relationships and other exceptions can apply. We assess the facts before you rely on an exception.
What if my application is refused?
Review rights, deadlines and any further application option depend on the decision and your circumstances. Get advice promptly and read our partner visa refusal guide.
Is the first Townsville partner visa call free?
The strategy call is free and covers the proposed pathway, professional fees and next steps. Detailed legal advice or document review may require a separately agreed scope.
Can I include my children in the application?
Yes, dependent children can be included. You'll need to provide evidence of their dependency and meet specific requirements.
Do we need to meet you in person?
No — we can work with Townsville clients by phone or video. Salvo Migration's office is in Brisbane; we do not claim to have a Townsville office.
