Background
I came to Australia from Nepal in 2007 as an international student. After completing a Master of Accounting, I pursued migration law and became a MARA-registered migration agent in 2015 after completing the Graduate Diploma of Australian Migration Law and Practice.
I am currently studying a Diploma of Law through the Legal Profession Admission Board (LPAB) to deepen my legal grounding across the areas of law that intersect with migration practice.
I consult in English, Nepali, and Hindi — which is relevant for the South Asian diaspora communities I frequently work with.
Qualifications
- Graduate Diploma of Australian Migration Law and Practice
- Diploma of Law (LPAB, in progress)
- Certificate IV in Training and Assessment
- MARA registration since 2015 — MARN 1576536
- Continuing Professional Development requirements met annually per MARA standards
How I work
Initial consultations are paid ($200 + GST, 30 minutes via Zoom). A tax invoice bearing MARN 1576536 is issued. The MARA Consumer Guide is provided before or at the start of the consultation. This is conducted under section 43 of the Migration Agents Code of Conduct 2021.
After the consultation, if ongoing assistance is needed, a written service agreement is issued before any further work commences. This sets out the scope, fees, and responsibilities clearly for both parties. It is required by section 42 of the Code.
I do not provide migration advice via email, social media, or unpaid channels. This is to ensure every client receives advice grounded in their full circumstances and properly documented per professional standards.
