⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly recommended!

A massive thank you to Phillip, Cherie and the team at Phillip Silver & Associates for helping me get my Australian 482 DAMA visa approved on 7 October 2026!

Navigating a complicated application from Namibia was incredibly stressful, but Phillip and Cherie handled my application and guided me through every step. Their communication via WhatsApp, email and phone was top-notch, and they were always available to answer my questions.

This approval changes everything for my family and me. Phillip Silver & Associates will always be my go-to team for any visa or legal matters going forward, and I’ll recommend them over and over again! Phillip and Cherie, thank you both for your outstanding work, patience and personal support. My family and I are truly grateful!

We are extremely grateful to Cherie, Phillip and the whole team for their excellent work and support throughout our visa application.

From the beginning, they were professional, knowledgeable, responsive and always willing to help us whenever we had questions or concerns.

The visa process was a long and stressful journey for our family, but having such a supportive and professional team guiding us made a huge difference. They handled everything with great attention to detail and kept us informed throughout the process.

Our 482 visa has now been approved, and we couldn’t be happier! 🇦🇺❤️

Thank you, Cherie, Phillip and the entire team, for your dedication, hard work and for helping our family achieve such an important milestone. We highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a professional and trustworthy immigration team.

Thank you so much for everything!

Phillip and his team have delivered exceptional service to us since 2020 when we were faced with an urgent situation. We had just lost my mom and needed to secure a parent visa in a hurry for my father who was in Australia on a holiday visa and couldn't go back to RSA. Hafizah met with us online and gave us reassurance that it was possible and started the ball rolling immediately. Super efficient and prompt replies to every challenge secured a parent (bridging) visa so Dad could stay with us in Aus. They kept us informed right the way through, advised and assisted with a different bridging visa when Dad had to travel back to RSA for his sister's funeral. Unfortunately, Dad passed away in 2024 before the visa had been granted. Even then, Phillip and his team advised that I could apply for a refund of the visa fee. That was a whole other battle and Phillip didn't back down, eventually security the fee refund for me. The entire team is so professional and the peace of mind they brought us during a very difficult time cannot be put into words. Highly recommend this team for fantastic service and excellent knowledge of Australian visas to give you the best advice and options that suit your budget.

We cannot recommend Philip and his team highly enough.

Our journey to Australian permanent residency was far from straightforward. We applied for a Subclass 190 visa as a family and, along the way, encountered a significant and unexpected complication that put the outcome of our application into question.

Philip guided us through an incredibly stressful and uncertain period with professionalism, knowledge and a very considered approach. He took the time to understand the complexities of our case, clearly explained our options and helped us navigate the additional information and evidence required by Home Affairs. Cherie, Mark and the wider team were also incredibly thorough and responsive throughout the process.

There were many moments when we genuinely didn't know what the outcome would be, so receiving confirmation that our 190 visas had finally been granted was an enormous moment for our family.

We are incredibly grateful to Philip and his team for their guidance, persistence and support throughout what became a very long journey. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend them, particularly to anyone dealing with a more complex migration matter.

I needed to apply for an orphan relative visa for my niece and nephew (who were already in Australia on international student visas). This is not a common visa type that people apply for but that did not intimidate Phillip and his team at all. Because my nephew was turning 18 in a short time frame and we needed to apply before his 18th birthday, they assisted extensively with the heaps of paperwork that was needed and the applications were submitted on time. It took nearly 3 years of back and forth with Home Affairs (in all fairness, Home Affairs actually only started working on it 2 years after it was submitted) but the visas were finally granted. At one point Phillip had to intervene and write to Home Affairs as some of their requests were beyond impossible to meet. I will forever be grateful to Cherie who went above and beyond to ensure all documents submitted met with the Home Affairs requirements and to Phillip who had no qualms about taking on this complex case. Thank you for all your help with this.

Highly recommend Phillip Silver & Associates!

My husband and I had an excellent experience working with Hafizah. She was incredibly helpful, efficient, and supportive throughout the entire process. She answered all of our questions promptly and made what could have been a very stressful experience feel so much easier.

We're truly grateful to Hafizah and the entire team for their professionalism and dedication.
Thank you for everything!

Cheers,
Sumi & Carlos
