Consultation checklist
What to Prepare Before a Migration Consultation
You do not need to diagnose your own migration pathway before seeking advice. A clear summary of goals, circumstances and known dates is a strong place to begin.

Create a one-page context
Prepare a concise overview so the registered migration agent can understand why you are seeking advice.
- Your goal in plain language
- Current country and general visa context
- Relevant work, study or family context
- Important dates exactly as you know them
Prioritise your questions
Separate the questions you need answered from assumptions gathered online. This helps keep the consultation focused.
Do not send sensitive records through a general form
Keep passport numbers, health or character records, financial records and identity documents out of the initial enquiry.
Official sources
Use current official information as the baseline. These links do not turn general preparation material into personalised advice.
Continue with clarity
Keep the guide. Prepare the conversation.
Send a copy to yourself, continue to the related service or arrange a professional consultation when you are ready.
