Initial consultations typically last between 30-60 minutes. They are only intended to be a fact finding session to determine eligibility for an Australian visa or citizenship. The initial consultation is not a document checking service and document checklists will not be provided.  At the conclusion of the consultation, you will have sufficient information about your, or your relative's or friend's Australian visa or citizenship options/prospects.
