Case Study – Hospitality

A father came to Australia on a student visa together with his family. He then abandoned them and disappeared. A year later, without warning, the Department of Home Affairs automatically cancelled the visas of the mother and her three children.

An IT professional had been working in Australia for 10 years. He had left his autistic child in the Philippines because his medical condition failed the health requirement. The risk in applying for the permanent visa was the “one fail, all fail” rule – his autistic child would result in the refusal of the whole family.

A beef processing farm in NSW urgently needed a Production Manager with meat manufacturing experience. We identified a highly qualified candidate who was soon offered the position with visa sponsorship. However, the process became more complex when it was discovered that his young son had a rare blood condition that did not satisfy the health requirements. We put forward a strong argument requesting a health waiver which involved demonstrating that the condition wouldn’t place undue demands on Australia’s healthcare system.

A company that supplies mining services in Western Australia were experiencing challenges in retaining mobile plant operators. Their workforce consisted of veteran staff and high turnover working-holiday people. The company engaged us to provide a migration solution and assist in recruiting experienced international workers.​
