“My experience working with Atul was nothing short of fantastic He is a person who gives time to you, is super accessible, doesn’t lose patience and understands your context. Atul works hard to prepare you and position your credentials well for the visa requirements I feel I wouldn’t have got this experience from other branded and reputed agencies. Subclass 858 visa is not about a point system based evaluation. It is about your talent based fitment within the eligible sectors. Now this is something which requires deep understanding of what the department requires and what you have to offer and position. This marriage is so much well taken care of by Atul. Hats off to him during the entire process and for delivering the desired outcome for me. His inputs are always balanced and aimed at putting your best picture forward All the best to you Atul”

“The best thing I've done this year is to meet Atul. He was with me from the RFI stage of my GTI visa, and I was able to process very easily with his passionate help and quick feedback. I got GTI visa approval today. Without his help, positive results would not have been expected. I highly admire his professionalism and strongly recommend it. He's the best 😊 🎉”

“I have seeked Atul's guidance to respond for an RFI(Request For Information)for my visa application, I had 28 days to prepare the response and Atul looked at my documentation which I had submitted initially on my own. Atul came to my rescue and helped me draft the RFI response within 2 weeks and guided me with all the relevant documentation requested by the case officer. We had several zoom calls to refine the response and articulate with the cover letter. Atul was always available for any queries and guided me through out this journey of 28 days. After submitting the RFI, I received my PR Grant within 2 weeks. I highly recommend Atul for all Australian Visa's and Immigration support. He's very kind and friendly on pocket as well. Thanks Atul for your support and advise.”
