How My Migration Lawyers Approaches Partner Visa Matters
A plain-English overview of the partner visa pathways, what's involved, and how MML handles your matter end to end.
5 Star Reviews
Suitability first, always
We assess your situation carefully before you commit to significant fees. If a partner visa pathway is not suitable, we will tell you, even if that means turning away the work.
Risks identified before lodgement
Potential Schedule 3 issues and other legal risks are identified early and addressed before an application is lodged, not discovered after the Department raises concerns.
Visa status planned in advance
Your bridging visa pathway is planned from the outset to reduce the risk of unlawful status or loss of work rights at any point during the process.
Staged fees, no large upfront cost
Professional fees are structured in stages so you are not required to pay the full amount upfront for a process that may take several years to complete.
Regular updates at defined intervals
You receive updates at defined intervals so you are never left wondering about the progress of your matter. Communication standards are committed to in writing before you sign.
Two-day cooling-off period on every engagement
Every engagement includes a two-business-day cooling-off period after signing, giving you time to reconsider your decision without any pressure whatsoever.
What Is at Stake
A Partner Visa Refusal Can Have Serious Consequences
A refusal is not simply an inconvenience. These are the real outcomes couples face when an application goes wrong.

The Process
The Partner Visa Process With MML
From your first consultation through to the grant of your permanent visa, here is exactly how we work with you at every stage.
Step 1
We review your circumstances, identify any issues like Schedule 3, and give you a clear picture of your options, costs, and realistic prospects. You leave knowing exactly where you stand.
Step 2
We provide a detailed document checklist and help you compile evidence across the four pillars: financial, social, household, and commitment. We review everything before lodgement.
Step 3
We prepare and lodge your application with the Department of Home Affairs. Onshore applicants receive a Bridging Visa A with full work and study rights from day of lodgement.
Step 4
We monitor your application throughout, respond to all Department requests, and provide regular updates at defined intervals. You are never left wondering.
