There are people in Australia, like Dodgy Dave, who are unlawfully charging for immigration advice and exploiting vulnerable visa applicants.

If that’s you – we’re onto you.

We are taking strong action. We recently removed a non-citizen who scammed international students and lodged fraudulent visa applications. They now face bans on returning to Australia.

If you give paid immigration advice without being a registered migration agent or an Australian legal practitioner, you’re committing a serious offence. Non-citizens can face visa cancellation, detention and removal.

If you’re doing the wrong thing, stop now – or expect consequences.

It’s that simple.

If you’re charging people for immigration assistance in Australia without being a registered migration agent or an Australian legal practitioner, you are committing a serious criminal offence.

The penalties are severe. You could face up to 10 years’ imprisonment and significant financial penalties. And if you’re also a non-citizen, you risk detention and removal from Australia.

We are actively tracking visa applications and targeting people who facilitate visa fraud, including submitting false or non-genuine Protection visa applications.

Don’t risk your future by giving illegal immigration advice.

Anyone with information about individuals or businesses facilitating immigration fraud is encouraged to make a report online to Border Watch: https://www.borderwatch.gov.au
