Hi gusto ko lng po iconfirm ang validity ng pte academic. It is indicated ba 2 years validity nia but may nbbasa dn po ako na for PR application it is 3 yrs… does it mean pg nainvite ka for Visa 190 and 189 it will be 3 yrs pro pg Visa 491 it is only 2 years? Please confirm nmn po, TY!

> @aidann said: > > @mathilde9 said: > > > @aidann said: > > > Australia Express is a scam immigration company. My research shows they are not located in Australia as they claim but are actually based in Israel. Operating under the name “Be There” and owned by Roy Perez, Adam, and Naftali Brady, they’re situated at Galgalei HaPlada 6, Herzliya, Israel. They falsely present themselves as Australian by using local phone numbers, but there are no MARA-registered agents involved. It seems they are deliberately deceiving people, using these tactics to fraudulently take advantage of clients. > > > . > > > > It states on their website the MARA registration numbers of their "partner" consultants in Jordan and NSW, verified in mara portal. May mga ganong business models kasi yata. I guess there are other migration agencies that do not have offices in Australia. So should be okay? Did you specifically encounter any problem with this agency? Can you share so that we can be enlightened? Thanks. Most of these agencies naman are legit in terms of registration, madalas nga lang sa kanila nagoover commit kasi and wala nang cadence once nagsign up at nagbayad na yung client. > > > Hello again, > > Please be aware that you should only work directly with qualified MARA agents for your immigration process. As a client, it’s essential that you communicate directly with your MARA agent and sign a contract that outlines a clear payment plan reflecting your individual process, with guarantees regarding your visa. > > Were you provided with a contract like this? Have you had direct communication with your MARA agent? I agree. Unfortunately there are also those scrupulous agents who get paid by these businesses just so they can use the registration on their website. Not until you speak to the agent directly, be very careful before you engage such business. Also, a responsible MARA agent should provide you with the Code of Conduct, consumer guide, 956 form from the very start. If you’ve not received such then it’s telling of how they work.

and just like that, we have now been invited for the ceremony! ALL THANKS TO GOD!!! YEHEY!!! God Bless you all! Finally graduate na me here sa forum!!! Cheers!
