Highly professional, supportive and amazing team of experts! They were always there for us when we needed help or any questions! They walked us through every single step of this process, and just recently we received the first part of our visa! We are so grateful to have had their expertise, and could not have done it without them.

I can't recommend Freedom Migration enough! They helped myself and my partner so much with the partner visa process. From the get go we felt that we were in capable and trustworthy hands. During the first meeting they put us at ease and took the time to understand our situation and came up with the best way to go about it. From then on, it was like clock work. They were professional, thorough and on the ball every step of the way. Always providing us lists of what we needed to submit and didn't let us slack. We never felt as if we were forgotten about and they were always happy to answer our questions. Once our partner visa was granted, they were just as excited for us and we were!

Before we decided to start the process with Freedom Migration, my partner and I were extremely overwhelmed and had no idea where to start.The whole team, specially Emma, Rofia and Jen showed a great level of professionalism. What we loved the most was how they made us feel special and not just like another application. They are always available to answer our questions and were super friendly and just wonderful overall. We are extremely happy with their service and If anyone is looking to apply for an Australian visa this team is beyond amazing. They make all the process super clear and easy (which is something we thought would be impossible!) Thank you for everything!Dalia and Sierra

The Freedom Migration team (Emma, Mel, Julie, Joel and Gracelda; who we dealt with) did an incredible job, going above and beyond in assisting with our defacto visa application. They were all very approachable and we had no hesitation in calling them for help and assistance when we needed. They were all extremely professional and efficient, keeping us up to date and informed throughout the entire process. We felt as though we were working with them as a unit and couldn't fault them in any way. We would highly recommend them for anyone seeking visa assistance. Thank you for helping us tell our love story and we hope with all your amazing hard work we will be successful in the next stages of this process.

We searched long and hard for a reliable migration agent on the net, Freedom Migration kept coming in as the highest scoring by reviewers. So, we sent an email off and was shortly contacted by the Freedom team to get the ball rolling. Emma and the Freedom team are so friendly and professional. Having them at our backs made this process so easy, it was such a relief for us, as we have small kids and hectic jobs it was so nice to just offload all the hard yaka onto someone else. Emma and the team kept us informed about the application and its progress the entire time. When we first got in touch with Freedom we were really panicked about the daunting process of applying for a partner visa, we needn't have worried, Emma and the team did practically everything, it was an entirely stress free process for my wife and I. And now, we have our visa and are making final plans for relocation to Aus. One bit of advice for future clients of Freedom Migration, help them help you, for their sakes and yours, be prepared! Have your documents and certificates ready and your photos scanned. It will make the process smoother if you have everything in place, ready to send them.I highly recommend Emma and the team at Freedom Migration.

Emma and the team are kind, professional and genuine. They go above and beyond for their clients and REALLY care. I am not someone who leaves reviews regularly but these guys have done so much for my wife and I, that I couldn’t help but sing their praises. I would recommend them to anyone, such a great bunch of people who take the worry and confusion out of immigration. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED THEM!!!

Freedom Migration/ Brisbane (specifically Emma and her team) are absolutely an incredible team. I have just got my permanent residency and my partner and I are over the moon. It’s been a long journey but we got there eventually with all the help we got from Freedom Migration. We are very glad that we went through this amazing team for such an important step in our lives. We were taking care of from DAY 1! From our first meeting with Emma, we felt comfortable, confident in the team and with the process. Everything was explained to us and all our questions and concerns were answered. Through the process, the team always answered our questions and replied to our emails very quickly. They cared about us and our relationship was more than a client- business relationship. They wanted to know how we are going and we felt that they were like a second family that we can discuss concerns and share exciting news with.My partner and I would definitely recommend Freedom Migration/ Brisbane. They will take care of you and help you every step of the way. They will take the pressure off you during the journey and you can trust that they will get you there.

I have been trusting Freedom Migration with all my visa application for a reason. The team has been wonderful and as a client I felt valued and the team really listened to understand my case.I knew we were in safe hands the moment I read Elvira’s first email. She and the team were supportive and looked after us and our application throughout the entire time. Elvira not only made sure our documents were collected and uploaded on time but she also provided feedback on the quality of the evidence. Thanks to Freedom Migration our partner visa application was granted without any difficulty or delay.

Freedom Migration has been a wonderful team that has made me and my partner's visa application journey more simple than we could have hoped for. I want to especially thank Emma, Rofia, Jen and Mel who has taken really good care of us and were always there whenever we had any problems or questions regarding the visa. From the first day that my partner and I met with Emma, I knew that they were going to be perfect for us because of the genuine interest that they showed for our story and the comfortableness that they made us feel throughout the whole process. My partner and I truly appreciate all the help that they've given us and will always treasure this moment of having a wonderful team by our side who has made our dream of being permanently together in this country closer to reality. A huge thank you to all the Freedom Migration Team! ❤️

The whole team at Freedom Migration was excellent and very supportive. They were also very positive and walked us step-by-step through the painful and stressful process of partnership visa application. They were timely in their responses, went above and beyond to respond to our queries, put together a comprehensive application for us and most of all pre-empted what the immigration department needed from us in terms of information. I think this reflects their depth of experience as migration agents. I do believe that it is because of the team's efforts that our partnership visa application has been granted! Thank you so much Elvira, Evelyn, Emma and Mel.

Freedom Migration Brisbane would be one of the best Migration Agents in Australia.I can not recommend the team at Freedom Migration more highly'A huge thank you to Emma, Avelyn, Mel and a special thanks to Elvira as well as the unknown team who have worked so hard in guiding Jasmine and I through the mine field process of professionally presenting our evidence for a successful 300 Visa. We would never have been able to achieve this on our own, we can now plan our future together with Jasmine and the boys.Whenever additional information or any questions arose, friendly stress free communication was always available. with a tear in my eye I thank you Elvira for that wonderful phone call after 12 months of patiently waiting.Once again thank you Freedom Migration,Kindest Regards,Garry and Jasmine.

I came across Freedom Migration via YouTube, and had read some good reviews. When I made an appointment, I met Melissa for the first time. She was kind and genuine, and made detailed notes about my case. Little did I know that these important details would help me with my visa application. From then on, Rofia and Jen provided understanding, prompt responses to my queries and encouragement. I strongly recommend anyone seeking the assistance and expertise provided by Freedom Migration.

I am very happy with the way Freedom Migration has handled a partner visa application. Mel, Jen and Rofia have been professional, dedicated and diligent in preparing the best application possible. We couldn't have done it by ourselves. Their guiding hand and legal expertise make us confident for the application's success.

Our future is certain thanks to Freedom It is with pleasure that we highly recommend Emma and the team at Freedom Migration. Some time ago we embarked on the journey of obtaining a partner visa and faced some significant challenges. This process was so vital to our future, not to mention the substantial cost - we didn't want to leave anything to chance. We are so glad we found Emma to navigate us through the difficult process. Without her and the team, I'm not certain what would have become of our application, or even if the outcome would have been a happy one. Thankfully we can say our outcome was a successful one, owed entirely to the hard work of the Freedom Migration team. Something that has been very important to us and must be mentioned is the professional and supportive nature of Emma and her team. From the moment we met Emma, we felt completely comfortable and confident she had our best interest in mind. Emma was very professional, but she went much further than that. Emma treated us like friends and took a genuine interest in our lives and interests, and that made such a difference - it cannot be overstated. Having someone by your side through such a difficult, nervous and lengthy period of your life is vital. Emma never left us with unrealistic expectations about what we faced, yet we couldn't help but feel confident that we were in the right hands. The outcome for us was a successful and happy one, and we owe it all to Emma and her awesome team. Thank you!
