Australia’s immigration landscape—especially for family or dependent visas—is complex and ever-evolving. Only registered MARA agents or qualified lawyers are legally permitted to provide immigration assistance in Australia. This ensures up-to-date, compliant guidance throughout the visa journey
Global Gateways, with 25+ years experience in Bangalore, offers expert consultancy to help dependents like spouses, partners, and children accompany primary visa holders—whether on student, work, or permanent/residence visas
