澳大利亚移民代理注册局(OMARA)对三名注册移民代理进行了处罚,指控他们允许未注册人员提供移民协助 1。这些案件反映了当局对非法移民协助行为的持续整治。
根据监管数据,OMARA监管团队于10月成立后,在2025-26年期间对85名注册移民代理进行了主动监管,发现43起不合规案例,对其中28名代理实施了处罚 1。在被公开的三起案件中,第一名代理因数百份签证申请涉及未披露或未注册人员提供的协助而被取消注册 1;第二名代理因其未注册的儿子提供移民协助而被暂停执业 1;第三名代理因明知允许另一名商业总监使用其移民代理注册号提交签证申请而被暂停执业 1。
移民和多元文化事务助理部长朱利安·希尔指出,"当人们支付移民代理费用时,他们理所当然地期望一个有资格的人会做这项工作,而不是一个未经训练、未注册的假代理" 1。在澳大利亚,只有注册移民代理、澳大利亚法律从业者和豁免人士才能合法提供移民协助 1。
The Office of the Migration Agents Registration Authority (OMARA) has taken enforcement action against three registered migration agents who unlawfully allowed unregistered individuals to provide immigration assistance.1 The cases represent part of a broader regulatory effort, with OMARA's monitoring team identifying 43 instances of non-compliance among 85 registered migration agents reviewed during the 2025-26 period, resulting in penalties against 28 agents.1
In the first case, a registered agent's licence was cancelled after hundreds of visa applications involved assistance provided by undisclosed or unregistered individuals.1 A second agent received a suspension after allowing his unregistered son to provide immigration services, while a third was similarly suspended for knowingly permitting another business director to use his migration agent registration number to submit visa applications.1 Under Australian law, only registered migration agents, Australian legal practitioners, and exempt persons are authorised to deliver immigration assistance.1
Assistant Minister for Immigration and Multicultural Affairs Julian Hill stated that "when people pay for a migration agent's services, they are rightfully expecting a qualified person to do that work, not an untrained and unregistered fake agent."1 The enforcement action underscores the government's commitment to combating fraudulent immigration services and protecting consumers from unlicensed operators.
