All paid guides, packs and subscriptions on this page are general information about the published Department of Home Affairs framework and the Migration Agents Code of Conduct 2022. They are not migration advice for any specific person, business or nominee. Purchase does not create a migration agent–client relationship. Outcomes of visa, nomination, sponsorship, monitoring and Code-compliance matters cannot be guaranteed by any registered migration agent (section 15). Migration advice on a specific matter is provided by Keshab Chapagain (MARN 1576536) after a paid initial consultation under section 43 of the Code, with a written service agreement issued under section 42. The OMARA Consumer Guide is provided to all clients before the consultation begins. Refunds: digital products are refundable within 14 days of purchase if the file has not yet been downloaded; once downloaded, refunds are at WIDEN's discretion. Subscriptions cancellable at any time; no refunds for partial months. Audit credit bundles refundable if no credit has been drawn down. Australian Consumer Law rights are unaffected throughout. Professional indemnity insurance is held as required under the Migration Agents Regulations 1998.
