Australian Visa Cancellations & Citizenship Refusals

Migration support for difficult circumstances

Finding out that your visa or citizenship has or may be cancelled or refused can be devastating to you and your family. Such decisions can prevent you from making further visa applications or being granted certain visas to travel to, enter, or stay in Australia. It can also result in your removal from Australia and exclusion from returning.

You may have the right of reply to such a decision before it is made, however strict time limits apply so you must act quickly. Our team can advise you of your options and represent you during the review process.

As migration lawyers with extensive criminal experience, we understand that it is essential to apply an evidence-based approach to your case and claims. Expert advice and representation can make all the difference in your case.

We act for clients in a range of visa and citizenship cancellation and refusal matters, including:

Adverse decisions under section 501 or on character grounds
Revocation of Australian citizenship due to historical offending
Cancellation of visas due to incorrect information (section 109) or concerns about their identity (section 116(1AA))
Cancellation of visas due to concerns the holder may pose a risk to the health or safety of the Australian community (section 116(1)(e))

Whatever the cause or issue, we’re here to assist you and to work towards a positive outcome.

Caitlin White and Jiabei Qi are the best lawyers who are professional and reliable. I almost lost hope but was very lucky to have had Caitlin and Jiabei to handle my case. Without their professional help, I may not have won my appeal. I also want to say thank you to Victoria Lenton for your professional support and advice. I can't thank you all enough.
