Our History

Visa Centre's parent company, Oceania Development Group also includes the Migration Bureau and Four Corners Immigration. The Migration Bureau was one of the first private migration practices of its type and Four Corners has long been known as one of the best immigration companies in the United Kingdom and Ireland.  Today this group of companies offers a broad spectrum of international visa services and is one of the world's largest, longest-established and officially-recognised immigration consultancies - specialising in obtaining skills, family and business permanent residence visas to Australia, New Zealand and Canada.

Oceania Development Group is understandably proud of its history and its unique distinction as a pioneer of the modern-day immigration consulting industry.

IMMIGRATION TO AUSTRALIA, NEW ZEALAND & CANADA


Australia, New Zealand and Canada have long attracted skilled workers, qualified professionals and business persons from around the world seeking a better life for themselves and their families. It is widely thought that immigration has built these "new world" lands into the prosperous countries that they are today.

IMMIGRATION AND VISA CONSULTANTS


Increasing competition for a fixed number of places means that the immigration authorities can only approve applicants with the best prepared applications, thus creating the need for independent immigration consultants.

The immigration consulting industry has been formally recognised by the various governments through the creation of professional industry bodies;
  • Migration Agents Registration Authority (MARA)
  • Migration Institute of Australia (MIA)
  • Immigration Advisers Authority (IAA) - New Zealand
  • Canadian Society of Immigration Consultants (CSIC)

    IMMIGRATION POLICY


    Today, Australia's immigration policy allows for the granting of around 165,000 visas per year. Similarly, New Zealand's immigration policy allows for the granting of 50,000 visas per year and Canada's immigration policy allows for the granting of 265,000 visas per year.

    Private migration consultants now assist a substantial number of approved applicants.

    EXPERTISE WITH RESPONSIBILITY


    Annually, our group advises over 3,000 prospective migrants with a success rate close to 100%; one of the highest  in the industry.  Our team of qualified immigration lawyers and visa consultants, with over 50 years of combined industry experience, are able to maintain this success.

    Over the years, we have established an impressive reputation for assisting skilled individuals, families and business people to migrate. As a result, former clients and government posts refer many of our current clients.

    Our commitment to maintaining a positive working relationship with government and immigration authorities ensures the smooth processing of your visa application.
