Charging for a migration outcome
The Migration Act 1958 (Cth) prohibits payment-for-visa conduct. This is where a person asks for, receives, offers or provides payment or other benefits in return for a range of “sponsorship-related events” including entering a sponsorship arrangement or making a nomination in relation to a visa, the engagement of a person in work or an activity with the sponsor, and the termination or withdrawal of sponsorship or nomination. Breaches of these provisions can attract civil and criminal penalties, and result in visa cancellation.
