Visa cancellation in Australia happens when the Department of Home Affairs, the Administrative Review Tribunal, or a court decides to terminate a valid visa because of legal or regulatory concerns. This can happen before or after a visa is granted, and can result in a loss of lawful status, detention, or removal from Australia, depending on the circumstances. Cancellation decisions are often made under strict provisions of the Migration Act 1958 and can carry serious long-term consequences for future visa applications.
There are no hidden costs for our services. Our fees are clearly set out in a fee agreement.

Legal consultation and case assessment
Initial consultation fees vary depending on the urgency and complexity of your matter, and typically cover reviewing your visa status, assessing the cancellation notice, and advising on immediate next steps and legal options.

Costs for preparing a response to the Department depend on how much evidence is needed, the complexity of the cancellation grounds, and the level of legal drafting involved.
Tribunal and court representation costs
If your matter proceeds to the ART or a court review, costs vary depending on the complexity of the case, the preparation required, and whether expert evidence or multiple hearings are involved.
We provide urgent, strategic, and detailed legal support for visa cancellation matters.
