About Us

We are Australian and New Zealand migration consultants. This means that we are qualified to provide a visa service for
Australia and New Zealand and to look after your visa & migration needs.

We are based in the UK, with offices in London and Oxfordshire.

We have years of experience working in migration (in Australia and the UK), so you can be sure that we will provide you
with the best, reliable, accurate and up-to-date advice about your visa options.

More importantly, we have been through the migration mill ourselves. That means that we understand, first hand, how
complicated and long winded, and stressful, the visa application process may sometimes appear to be. We also
understand that you may have many questions to ask about your visas, and about your move overseas.

With this in mind, we are always happy to answer all your queries. So please feel free to give us a call, or email us, so
that we can discuss your concerns and chat about your best visa options.

We provide a full, comprehensive, reliable visa service so that you are free to get on with planning your future move,
without having to worry and stress about your visas.

What Our Clients Have to Say:

image “I recently used Sort Out My Visa successfully to apply for a tourist visa for Australia, and was delighted with their efficient service, invaluable advice and personal attention. I particularly appreciated the agent’s attention to detail and the feed back that I was given on the progress of an application that was urgent but not straightforward.

The visa arrived comfortably ahead of my very short deadline, and I believe that the excellent service they gave me was good value for money. I would use Sort Out My Visa again.”

Student Visa

image  When we were initially enquiring with migration experts, Veronika was the only person prepared to answer our initial questions without parting with cash first, or completing ridiculous generic forms on-line.  This is the reason we chose SOMV.  Veronika has continued to be easy to get in contact with and quick to respond to any questions, which is very important when it feels like you have put your future in someone else’s hands....something which other migration experts would do well to realise.

Veronika clearly has the experience to guide people through the process as smoothly and quickly as possible and saved us a lot of time and stress, whilst we tried to juggle work, exams and a number of other things. "
