I cannot recommend Kathy from Southern Stone Migration highly enough. My partner visa journey began in April 2023, although we had already been in contact with Kathy since December 2022. From the very beginning, she made what felt like a complicated process much easier to understand. One thing I really appreciated was how organised and proactive she was. She clearly explained every step of the process, provided detailed checklists of all the documents we needed, and always let us know what the next stage would be. Whether I was on my Bridging Visa, Temporary Partner Visa, or waiting for my Permanent Residency, Kathy kept in touch and made sure I knew exactly what was happening and what I needed to prepare. Her communication was outstanding. She responded to emails and questions promptly, kept us updated throughout the application, and was always professional, patient, and approachable. Knowing we had someone who genuinely cared about our application gave us so much peace of mind during what can be a very stressful process. One thing that really stood out was her attention to detail. She caught a mistake that could have delayed our application, and because she acted quickly, we were able to fix it before it became an issue. That level of experience and diligence is invaluable when dealing with something as important as a visa application. After nearly three years of guidance and support, I was granted my Permanent Partner Visa in January 2026 without any issues. Looking back, I’m so glad we chose Southern Stone Migration to help us through this journey. If you’re looking for a migration agent who is knowledgeable, organised, responsive, and genuinely invested in achieving the best outcome for her clients, I would absolutely recommend Kathy and the team at Southern Stone Migration. Thank you for making such an important milestone in my life a smooth and stress-free experience!
Thank you, Kathy and the team at Southern Stone Migration, for helping us through a very difficult situation. My husband left Australia while holding a Bridging Visa A associated with his Partner Visa (820) application and was unable to return. At the same time, our 10-month-old Australian citizen baby was in China with his father. After receiving a refusal for my husband's Visitor Visa (Subclass 600), we were very worried about how long our family would be separated. When I spoke with Kathy, she took the time to understand our situation and patiently explained our options. While some agents told us the chances were very low, Kathy gave us confidence and believed there was a strong basis to reapply. Thanks to Kathy's expertise, dedication, and persistence, my husband's visa was granted in a very short period of time after the second application. Our family can finally reunite in Australia, and I can finally see my baby again. Kathy was professional, knowledgeable, supportive, and always quick to respond throughout the process. I highly recommend Kathy and Southern Stone Migration to anyone dealing with a complex migration matter. Thank you, Kathy, for helping bring our family back together. ❤️
I’m incredibly grateful to Kathy for helping me through my difficult citizenship process. After receiving my citizenship approval, I can confidently say her professionalism, knowledge, and support made a huge difference every step of the way. She was always responsive, patient, and clear in explaining everything, which made the whole process much less stressful. Thank you, Kathy, for your dedication and hard work. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for an excellent immigration lawyer.
I wish to express my greatest gratitude for Kathy Liu, the migration agent for Southern Stone. My wife has her Partner Visa rejected by the immigration department because the dept think her application was fraud because our son was NOT my biological son. This has resulted in tremendous anxiety and stress for both my wife and I. Kathy handled the situation with delication and care. She managed with the pressure of time to challenge the rejection and help us built up our case against the department and take it to the tribunal. With her professional service and advice, we built up our case and present our side of the story to the Tribunal and have the case won in our favor. Due to her hard work and persistence, my wife can now stay in Australia. I have the upmost respect for her talent and hard work. She has a very good knowledge of Australia’s migration system and will fight for your migration case. Thank you Kathy.
I had an incredible experience with Southern Stone Migration. Kathy was an absolute delight to work with – a lovely person who guided me through every step of the process. She helped me secure my visa grant, which I honestly didn’t think I could achieve with such a small restaurant with more takeaways than dine-in options. Her support, professionalism, and dedication made all the difference. I’m truly grateful for her help and highly recommend Southern Stone Migration to anyone looking for a reliable and caring migration agent. Thank you Kathy You are lovely ❤️🙏

She guided me every step of the way with clear communication, attention to detail, and genuine care for my case. Her expertise made a complex process feel smooth and manageable. I truly appreciate her dedication and skillful handling of my application. I highly recommend kathy and her team to whoever looking for assistance with their migration journey
Kathy is truly a gift from God. She fought so hard for my mum’s visa and stood by us every step of the way. She understands the needs of others and helps far more than she is ever required to. She didn’t just handle our immigration cases—she cared for us like family, with patience, kindness, and genuine compassion. I will never forget what she has done for us. If you are looking for someone who truly cares and will fight for you, Kathy is the one. May God bless her abundantly for the lives she has touched.Highly recommend her to anyone in need.
Having lived in Australia for almost 10 years, I believe many of you, like me, have gradually learned about immigration, work visas, and other visa-related matters, and have undoubtedly met quite a few immigration agents, even men, women, young, old, and from the same hometown as friends? What kind of lawyers, what level of teams, what kind of agencies? In the past, when I encountered so-called agents, they either didn't reply to messages, lacked patience, or led me on aimless tours. Nine out of ten questions went unanswered, and meeting them was like finding a needle in a haystack. This wasn't allowed, that wasn't possible, and worse, I spent money and still couldn't find the agent. It was no different from a circus. I believe many of you, like me, are living abroad, caught in a web of circumstances, ultimately striving to provide a better life for your families, hoping for a brighter future after hardship. Leaving behind our hometowns, relatives, and friends, we came to the unfamiliar city of Australia, hoping by all means to settle down and gradually move towards immigration. Ultimately, I thought applying for a work visa to obtain permanent residency was someone else's business, completely unrelated to me. I even considered returning to China as a worst-case scenario, until I met Kathy Liu (from Melbourne), while I (from Sydney) never met her in person, only exchanged a few phone calls, and communicated via text. After preparing my application, she provided clear guidance, reliable methods, and patiently explained the details. There were some minor hiccups during the application process, but I witnessed how Kathy Liu turned things around, demonstrating excellent responsibility. She deserves high praise! Until my visa was successfully approved. It was so sudden, like the sun had finally risen! Therefore, I want to wholeheartedly recommend Kathy Liu to everyone! Don't panic! Avoid making mistakes. In short: important matters really need to be entrusted to the right company and the right person! Leave the professional work to the professional Kathy Liu! Good luck to everyone! And best of luck to everyone working hard (including myself)! Thank you, Kathy Liu. It's an honor and a pleasure to have met you. Thank you to Southern Stone for providing a professional platform.
