Testimonials

Mark, who is a Sleep Technician, was specifically selected for an employer-sponsored visa. He was a sceptic who, by following to the letter and Margie Dizon and Cecilia Dela Vega of Migration Corporation of Australia’s recommendations and advice, simply couldn’t believe it when MCA succeeded in getting his visa approved in just 9 weeks! Luckily for him, despite his profession, Margie was not asleep on the job. One might even go as far as to say, an unbeliever now sees the light. None of this could have been accomplished without the expert help and assistance of the best Migration Agents in the Territory, Margie and Cecilia.

In complete awe, he says:

“I just got my Visa approved in only 9 weeks! and Ms Margie personally called me to say it…Just wow! I never expected something like this will happen to me! A million thanks Ms Margie and team! Thank you so much!”

Katrina Trinidad lost and found hope. Her first nomination for sponsored work with a previous Migration Agent was refused and Katrina could not apply for her employer sponsored visa three years ago.  She found renewed hope with Migration Corporation of Australia Registered Migration Agents, Margie Dizon and Cecilia Dela Vega in Darwin.  After being introduced by her employer to Margie and Cecilia, a new nomination and her visa application was prepared and lodged on her behalf.  Three days later, Katrina’s nomination was approved and five weeks later, her employer-sponsored work visa was approved also!

“It really pays to ensure that the person advising and representing you on your Australian visa application has the experience and is up to date with changing trends. We are here to make your Australian dreams come true!” Margie confirms.

Katrina’s feedback was as follows:

“10 STARS for Margie and Cecilia!! My case was a little sensitive as my first nomination was refused with a different migration agent.

My Australian employer insisted that I reapply and transfer me to another migration agent…Cecilia and Margie!! They are heaven sent!!

When it comes to providing them with my requirements/qualifications for the visa process, they are very strict and “sigurista”!! No wonder, I got my visa only 5 weeks after lodgement!! It was a surprise.  I wasn’t expecting my visa to come this early because i’ve known people who waited for their visa for more than 5 months.

Margie and Cecilia can turn even the most impossible case to possible!!

Thanks a lot MCA team for helping me to achieve my Australian dreams and making me and my family very very very happy!!!!”

Danny was representing his partner’s visas on his own previously. After encountering challenges and complications, he sought expert advice from Margie Dizon and Cecilia Dela Vega at Migration Corporation of Australia. He now has the greatest respect for Registered Migration Agents Margie and Cecilia. The application for Kalyarat’s Partner visa was granted after only 8 months for his now wife Kaly (Kalyarat) Patterson.

“Dear Margie, Cecilia and team,

The phone call we had today was the greatest news we have ever had. We could not believe the news about the granting of Kaly’s Partner Visa after only 8 months.  It just goes to show if you follow all the correct procedures, supply true and correct information in a timely and professional manner, everything works out.  We both thank you all from the bottom of our hearts for your advice (that we followed). We will come and visit you when we return to Darwin next week.

Once again great job done by Migration Corporation of Australia and see you soon.”

Danny and Kaly Patterson

The Mayos family are celebrating the day they attended Migration Corporation of Australia’s free community workshop.  It is in this workshop that they met Darwin’s best Migration Agents Margie Dizon and Cecilia Dela Vega and had all their Australian immigration concerns clarified.  After a very careful assessment and guidance from Margie and Cecilia, the Mayos family are now celebrating their permanent residency.  They followed every instruction and recommendation by the best Migration Agents in the Territory. Edrey Mayos says:

“Thanks for the great news! We are really glad that we got our visa granted today.  thank you for all the help!

“THANK YOU SO MUCH MARGIE & CECILIA FOR MAKING US HAPPY TODAY & FOR EVER FOR THIS BLESSINGS GOD HEAR OUR PRAYER!! GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIME!! THIS IS IT WE GOT IT!! OUR DREAM COME TRUE IN GOD’S PERFECT TIME!! THANK YOU LORD FOR THE LOVE AND FOR ALL THE BLESSINGS!!”

“Naniwala ako sa mga natulungan nila Margie and Cecilia at sa Tristar boss ko na recommendado sila. Totoo namang tapat sila sa trabaho at natulungan ako at ang pamilya ko nang mabilisan”.  “I believed those who Margie and Cecilia have already helped and they have been highly recommended by my employer.  They are really true to their work and they have helped me and my family gain permanent residency quickly.”

“There were many challenges, my case was complex and it was important to find someone you can trust with a very good reputation in the community.  I’m now a permanent resident of Australia because of Migration Corporation (MCA) duo Margie Dizon and Cecilia dela Vega.  They guided me through gaining my first temporary work visa to permanent residency. You have to be strong.  I made the right choices because I received very good immigration advice.”

“Maraming nagsasabi na wala na raw akong pag-asa.  Yung isang agent, nagprisinta at gagawin nya na lang raw ang panibagong 457 ko.  Mabuti na lang at hindi ako naniwala sa kanya kung hindi, naging imposible ang permanent residency ko.  Ngayon, makukuha ko na ang family ko.  Kaya rin sinanabihan ko silang lahat na kailangan ay matatag at hindi maniwala sa sabi-sabi.  Mas mabuti talaga at itanong sa marunong ng migration law – si Margie at Cecilia.  Maraming pwedent tanungan sa iba, hindi naman marunong or kulang sa experience.”

Uziel Gaitan’s journey is nothing short of challenging.  Her first employer had a sanction so she had to move and find another employer sponsor.  However, her dedication to herself and her child’s future motivated her to keep to committing to her Australian visa process by engaging Darwin’s best and professional Migration Agents Margie Dizon and Cecilia dela Vega.

“I met with Margie Dizon and the consultation was very technical.  She explained, in full detail what was required for the type of visa I was going for.  She considered our matter very seriously and I really felt that I was in very good hands. I wanted to know all that I had to prepare for.  We asked so many questions and she answered all of them.  I am aware of how complex this could get so we did not hesitate appointing someone who was obviously experts in their fields.  This is the start of our future now, we can now follow our dreams, start a family.  Thank you, Margie, Cecilia and the Migration Corporation team.  You’re a LEGEND!!!”

Mrs. Irene Lelekis of Northern Star Concreting has been a loyal and committed employer-sponsor since 2010.  She understands that the process of applying for Australian sponsorship, nomination and visa applications can be quite complex and daunting.  This is why over the years, she has only trusted Margie Dizon and Cecilia dela Vega with her immigration matters and visa applications for all her staff members. We celebrate with the latest grant of one of many employer-sponsored visa for her Carpenter.  She is truly delighted and she has this to say:

“You did it again!  From the beginning to the end, a very big THANK YOU, all the way [approvals], non-stop, six of them [workers].  We always trust you – myself, Marinos, Skevos and the boys.  You’ve always been there for us and you always deliver the best – always, always…a very BIG thank you!”

“You did amazing! You did so well. Thank you so much!!!!”

They initially wanted to do their own application whilst using our guidance and advice.  In the end, MCA duo Margie and Cecilia took on the whole submission as legislative changes were making the application complex.

“When we first started out on out visa adventure, the end goal was simple… update the visa so we could remain together.  For such a simple premise, the experience was anything but simple. The convoluted processof preparing and filing various visa forms, with the abysmal help from the Department of Immigration, along with the generic and cumbersome processes that did not cater for our specific circumstances was just wastingour time and money without producing any results.

Your expertise has been invaluable in the process of obtaining our visa, from your guidance to selecting correct visa to resolving the hurdlesencountered. We appreciated your unfailing attention to detail. With all the complexity of our situation, we worried that something would fall through the cracks, but you anticipated every contingency, despite the difficult circumstances. And then, well… the results speak for themselves.

We cant thank you enough for keeping our family together.  Thank-you! Thank-you! Thank-you!

Brandon, Janet & Duncan
Thank you”

“God’s perfect timing through Ms. Margie Dizon of Migration Corporation of Australia! What seemed to be impossible was made possible by Migration Corporation of Australia. At my age of 47, I did not expect a job offer as an Accountant in Australia anymore but with God’s help and Ms. Dizon’s patience, a job opportunity came for me. Ms. Dizon did not give up on finding a suitable employer for me.

MCA would always have the time to give some advice when I reached the age limit of 49 to apply for Permanent Residence visa (Employer Sponsored Nomination subclass 187). Through Ms. Dizon’s advice in the nick of time, I finally got my Permanent Residence visa exactly on my 50th birthday !

I am forever grateful to the Lord Almighty for tandem of Ms. Margie Dizon & Ms. Maria Cecilia dela Vega of Migration Corporation of Australia for making my Australian dream come true.  I can only wish the best of every thing for MCA.

May God always bless us all.

Sincerely yours, Maria Loida Mercado”

“We knew we had to get expert help from Margie and Cecilia.   They helped Michail’s brother with his paperwork and as Margie and Cecilia delivered a success story with George, we knew we had to choose them to help us too.  They made it easy.  Our baby Ioannis will be so lucky, growing up in Australia and we do not have to worry about his dad’s visa anymore. We are one, whole family now, in Australia all together!  What an amazing gift!!!” Christina shares.

We are very proud to be celebrating with the Malapitans, calling Australia as their home. On the 23rd of March, they will be taking their oath as citizens of Australia.

Mr Malapitan worked overseas as a Diesel Fitter prior to migrating to Australia on an employer-sponsored visa in 2006.

He brings with him solid industry experience of more than 19 years. He was promoted to become a supervisor for his division, having trained many workers over his seven-year employment for the same company, construction giant and locally-owned company Steelcon.

Mr Malapitan’s wife, Perliosa, is a highly-valued early childhood educator for nearly four years with Mitchell Street Childcare Centre.  Mrs Malapitan was a fully-qualified pharmacist overseas and pursued her love for educating children in Darwin.
The couple’s children, Ralp and Pearl, go to Karama Primary School and Nemarluk School respectively.

“I can still remember, three years ago, I set foot on Australian soil. Excited, a little scared, lonely & full of anxiety were the mixed feelings I had. Armed with high hopes of providing a better & brighter future for my family, battling loneliness & homesickness, made me more determined to work harder just like the rest of the 457 working class. I learnt the hard way that living in a foreign land is heaps different than the soft life back home. It is not a bed of roses, daily living is a constant challenge & trial. Many a time, I wanted to pack my bag & go home. I stopped, looked back & reflected on the poverty situation almost everyone wants to escape from. Financial security prevailed. I took this gamble, might as well get on with it.

Fortunately a year after, my employer deemed it fit to sponsor my family to follow me here in Darwin. My joy knew no bounds. I was ecstatic. At last, I would be reunited with my loved ones. But that happiness was short-lived for we had problems & some complications with our documents. I honestly thought that our being together was not meant to be. I was distressed & was at the lowest ebb of my life. But then, a spark of hope hit me. I turned to Margie Dizon of MCA, hoping… really, hoping against hope if she could pull off this insurmountable odd. I trusted & believed in her & the MCA team. There’s still hope yet, she assured me. True enough, I didn’t have wait long…a big thorn had been plucked from within me. Needless to say, I am now with my beloved family.

My trust for Margie’s agency deepened. I deduced, if she could pull me out from that very tight spot, why not my Permanent Residency? Always , I seem to have a knack for complications. My visa was about to expire, I was beginning to panic, I don’t have much time to file it myself due to work constraints. In short, I got scared since I felt like applying for PR is one-time shot. Whew! She made it just in time with Divine Intervention & human effort. It took a little while to get approved which was another trial, with God’s help & of course with MCA’s unwavering support, the wait is finally over. But that’s all behind us now, we are now looking at the future. Someday…one day…we will be taking our oaths & pledge allegiance to this God-blessed country who gave us another chance at life. If I may say, so…There is much hope when you trust in the Lord, yourself & a Friend.”

Nathaniel Ompad and Eden Ompad, husband and wife are thankful they have found Margie Dizon once again.  They are aware that obtaining up to date and correct information from registered and highly experienced Migration Agents are very important in their decision-making. As Mr. Ompad is often times away at work, it took them some time to be convinced that free information can be harmful, especially if the source is unreliable.Further, they are aware that not all cases are the same and legislation is always changing. Hence, obtaining correct advice from Margie Dizon of Migration Corporation of Australia about permanent residency pathways have now set them on the right course of action.

“In life, we only need one doctor, one dentist and one Migration Agent [duo], Margie and Cecilia.”

The Lay brothers have proven track record of training local Australians however their support for overseas skilled staff members ensure that their restaurants and catering businesses are complimented with a skilled team.

Peter Lay, Waterfront Bistro

“We only use you, Margie and Cecilia.  It’s easy as you get the job done.  You are very professional and trust worthy. You are tried and tested. Why use anyone else?”

“Me and my family would like to express our sincerest gratitude and appreciation for helping me achieve may Permanent Residency in your wonderful country. Although the odds are against me obtaining my permanent residency, I was able to push through, thanks to your help & expertise.

From the first the day that we have met where in we seek for your advice, I knew that if anybody can help us in the matters of migration, it would be you.

I hope that you could continue to help other like me who are aspiring to live and work in Australia with their families. You have helped me give my family a brighter future. God bless you.  Thank you very much.”

“I am excited to live in Darwin again and I would like to stay for good.  Margie and Cecilia changed my life.  I am very happy my family chose them to help me.  I’m very happy my employer [Halikos] chose them also,” confirms Panteleimon.

Panteleimon Papathomas waited a long time to return to Australia. Now, with the help of Migration Corporation duo Margie and Cecilia, his dream of working and returning to Australia has come true.  His brother, Peter, has long been a resident of Australia.  Due to life’s circumstances, Panteleimon spent most of his work years in Greece and found his way back to the Northern Territory of Australia with his brother’s connection in the construction industry.

“Move to down under has been a massive challenge and a totally new start of our lives. There’s been a lot of ups and downs along the way. But we will never regret the decision though. We were blessed by people we have met here, friends we made, colleagues at work who have been a huge support towards our family.

We probably wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for Margie and Cecilia at MCA. These guys have made the whole process very clear, simple and straight forward.

MCA were open, honest and supportive every step of the way. We would have no doubts in recomending MCA to people.

GREAT TEAM, GREAT WORK! WELL DONE!”

“A pleasant morning to you.  I just want you to know that we are all very thankful to you and the MCA team for being such a big help and doing the hardest work for our application to become residents of Australia.  We are very proud of you and we cannot thank you enough – words cant explain our gratitude.  All best for you and the rest of the team xx.”

Carmelita Batingal Lownds and Arna-Mae Villavelez, mother and daughter, initially came to Australia four years ago as Carmelita was sponsored as a Beauty Therapist.  Four years of residing in Darwin then meeting Martin has added excitement in her life.  Carmelita is also a very proud mother to Arna-Mae who has been juggling work and studies.  Arna-Mae works part time between Anita’s Beauty Salon in Parap Village and Antiquity Cafe at the Darwin Waterfront.  Migration Corporation is priviledged to have represented them both for an employer sponsored visa then a family sponsored visa.

Theirs is one tough story to tell and share. Both Edgar and Orlando started at the same company in the previous decade. However,  many years later and many challenges later, the unfortunate downsizing or closure of their employers’ businesses kept forcing them to look for greener pastures.

They could have easily given up and gone home but they were committed to a life they have known for at least six years, in Darwin, Australia.  Now, they not only share a house together as best of friends but have found their permanent residency with the solid support of their RSMS employer Tristar Industries.
