• This Centre can assist the applicant to complete migration application forms and relevant legal documents & declarations which we will see to the submission to the local Immigration Office or the Immigration Department's overseas posts. We will follow up the application until the applicant and their family members who satisfy the migration criteria and obtain migration visas.
