APG Perth Free First Consultation
Many people worry about cost before they even ask a question. So we keep the first step simple.
Your first consultation with APG Perth is free.
In this first chat, we will:
- Listen to your story and your goals
- Look at your age, study, work and English level
- Point out the visa options that may fit you
- Tell you what could go wrong
- Explain the next steps and the likely costs
There is no pressure to sign anything. Go home, think about it, and come back when you are ready.
What to bring: your passport, your CV, your study records, your English test result (if you have one), and any past visa papers.
APG Perth for International Students
Perth is a great place to study. It has well-known universities, TAFE colleges and private colleges. Students enjoy the beaches, the sunshine and a calmer pace of life.
APG Perth helps students with:
- Choosing a course. We match your goals and budget to real study options.
- Admission. We help with offer letters and college paperwork.
- Student visa (subclass 500). We help prepare a clear and honest application, including your Genuine Student statement.
- Visa extensions and changes. If your plans change, we look at what is possible.
- After study. We talk about the Temporary Graduate visa and other options after you finish.
Australia has tightened its student visa rules in recent years. That is why a good plan from day one matters. Choosing the wrong course or writing a weak statement can lead to a refusal.
APG Perth for Skilled Workers
Do you work in a trade, health, engineering, IT, or another skilled job? Western Australia often needs workers like you.
APG Perth can help you check and apply for:
- Skills assessment. We guide you on the right assessing body for your job.
- Expression of Interest (EOI). We help you lodge it and plan your points.
- Skilled Independent visa (subclass 189).
- Skilled Nominated visa (subclass 190). This needs state nomination.
- Skilled Work Regional visa (subclass 491). This suits people who are happy to live and work in a regional area.
- Employer-sponsored visas. These include the Skills in Demand (subclass 482) and Employer Nomination Scheme (subclass 186) pathways.
Each visa has its own points, English and work-experience rules. Occupation lists and state rules also change. We check the latest details for your case before you spend money.
Other Visas APG Perth Handles
Not everyone is a student or a skilled worker. Our Perth team also supports:
- Partner and family visas
- Parent and carer visas
- Visitor visas
- Guardian visas
- Business and investor options
- Global Talent visas
- Reviews and appeals for stalled or refused applications
If you are not sure which group you belong to, just ask. Sorting that out is what the first consultation is for.
Why Western Australia? Why Now?
Western Australia is growing fast. Mining, construction, energy, health care and hospitality all need people. Many workers and students see Perth as a place to build a long-term life.
The state also runs its own migration programs, and it has options for regional areas. These programs can change from year to year. So the smart move is to check current rules first, then make a plan.
A local team helps because we work with WA cases often and know what to look for.

Check Your Agent Is Registered
Whoever you choose, please check them first. In Australia, only registered people can give paid migration advice.
- Ask the agent for their MARN (Migration Agent Registration Number).

- Make sure the name matches and the registration is current.
It takes two minutes and it is free. A good agent will be happy for you to do it.
APG Perth FAQs
Is the first consultation at APG Perth really free?
Yes. The first consultation is free. We look at your situation and explain your options. You only pay if you choose to hire us and sign a fee agreement.
Can APG Perth guarantee my visa?
No. No honest agent can. The Department of Home Affairs makes the decision. What we can do is give you clear advice, build a strong and honest application, and reduce avoidable mistakes.
I have not chosen a course yet. Can I still come in?
Yes. Many students start with only an idea. We help you compare courses and work out which one fits your budget, your goals and your visa plans.
I am a skilled worker but I do not know my points. Can you help?
Yes. We go through your age, English, work history and study, then work out your points. If your score is low, we talk about ways to improve it.
Can I visit APG Perth without booking?
It is best to book first by calling +61 8 8318 6300 or booking online. Then a registered agent will have time ready for you.
My visa was refused. Is there still hope?
Sometimes there is. It depends on the reason for the refusal and the time limits that apply. Book a consultation quickly, because review deadlines can be short.
What is the difference between an education consultant and a migration agent?
An education consultant helps you pick a course and a college. A migration agent gives visa advice and can represent you with the Department. At APG Perth, you can get both kinds of help in one place.
Do I need to be in Perth to speak with your team?
Not to get started. You can call or email the Perth office first and ask how they can help from where you are.
Is APG Perth a government office?
No. We are a private consultancy. The Department of Home Affairs is the government body that decides visas. Our agents are registered with OMARA, the regulator for migration agents.
What should I bring to my first meeting?
Bring your passport, CV, study records, English test result, work references and any past visa documents. If you do not have everything, come anyway. We will tell you what is missing.

Visa rules are tough. But you do not need to face them alone.
