Current Situation Assessment: Identifying Challenges & Limitations

In 2024, Consultant C from Merchants Prosperity Education & Migration received a call from a returning client, Mr. Zhao. Filled with doubts, he explained that his father wished to migrate to Australia. However, after consulting with several agencies and encountering conflicting information, he decided to seek our professional guidance.

After an initial discussion, we carefully assessed Mr. Zhao’s father’s situation. Due to age and work experience constraints, he did not meet the eligibility criteria for the DAMA (Designated Area Migration Agreement) program, which had been previously suggested to him. Additionally, under the current immigration policies, his options for direct migration were extremely limited. Despite this, Mr. Zhao’s family was highly motivated to find a realistic and achievable pathway to Australian migration.

Strategy Adjustment: A Holistic Family Migration Plan

After conducting an in-depth analysis of the family’s situation, our consultant C proposed a long-term and stable solution:

First, we would assist Mr. Zhao and his sister in completing their studies and settling in Australia. Once either sibling obtains Australian permanent residency (PR), they could then sponsor their parents through a parent visa, allowing the family to reunite in Australia.

Mr. Zhao’s family fully agreed with this plan and decided to immediately begin the application process.

Study Plan for Mr. Zhao’s Sister

Due to her age, Mr. Zhao’s sister needed to complete high school in Australia first. However, since their parents were unable to accompany her due to work commitments, we tailored a comprehensive study plan to address this unique situation:

1. School Application and Language Class Arrangement
   • We carefully selected a suitable secondary school for her and successfully completed the applications for both the school and the language classes.
2. Accommodation Arrangement
   • Given that her parents couldn’t accompany her, we successfully arranged a safe and reliable homestay for her.
3. Visa Strategy
   • Since Mr. Zhao’s sister held a valid Australian tourist visa, we advised her to enter Australia on the tourist visa to begin her studies while we simultaneously submitted her student visa application.

Mr. Zhao’s Study and Immigration Plan
Unlike his sister, Mr. Zhao is an adult with a bachelor’s degree, so we designed a direct pathway for him to pursue postgraduate studies:

Mr. Zhao’s Study and Immigration Plan

Unlike his sister, Mr. Zhao is an adult with a bachelor’s degree, so we designed a direct pathway for him to pursue postgraduate studies:

1. Master’s Program Application
   • Based on Mr. Zhao’s academic background and career development needs, we helped him apply for a master’s program that aligns with his future immigration goals. He successfully received an offer letter from the university.
2. Visa Application
   • We assisted Mr. Zhao in smoothly submitting his student visa application and outlined an initial plan for his future immigration path.

Preliminary Achievements and Future Outlook

With the full support of Merchants Prosperity Education & Migration, Mr. Zhao’s family is gradually progressing toward their goal of immigrating to Australia:

• Mr. Zhao’s sister has successfully entered the language program and started adapting to life and studies in Australia.
• Mr. Zhao has also received a master’s offer and is preparing to continue his education in Australia.

These steps lay a solid foundation for the siblings to obtain permanent residency and eventually bring their parents to Australia through a parent-sponsored visa. Mr. Zhao’s family highly appreciates our services and is full of confidence about their future life in Australia.
