We cannot recommend Ben Watt highly enough! From our very first consultation, we felt at ease and confident in his expertise. He took the time to thoroughly explain every step of the immigration process, ensuring that we understood what to expect.

What impressed us the most was his attention to detail and commitment to our case. Ben was always responsive, answering our questions promptly and providing invaluable guidance. He truly cared about our situation and worked tirelessly to ensure the best outcome.

Thanks to Ben, we successfully navigated the complexities of our immigration journey. If you’re looking for a knowledgeable, compassionate, and dedicated lawyer, look no further than Ben. We're so grateful for his support!

I strongly recommend Ben Watt's services to anyone hoping to obtain a positive outcome to their visa applications. At all times during my visa process, he showed a great sense of professionalism and transparency and was always upfront about all the potential scenarios I could encounter during this journey, using facts, former experience and legislation in his advise. He was always happy to share all his knowlege with me, and to answer each of my questions in detail to ensure the right decisions were made. He tiredlessly worked to ensure that the plans that we set out, were succesfully executed and I am very happy with the positive outcome that we have obtained.

If you are after visa support, I highly recommend his services. Thanks Ben and all the best with future applications!

We cannot thank enough Ben Watt for his support and guidance in successfully lodging our PR (190 PhD Streamlined Nomination in the ACT).

Here is our story: I was extremely stressed about the over-claimed points in my EOI. I actually had 3.5 years of experience as a Software Engineer, but after my skills were assessed by the ACS, they deducted two years from my total experience. By mistake, I accidentally included the entire period of employment in my EOI.

Initially, I contacted another lawyer for advice, and he suggested withdrawing my invitation and reapplying. However, when I asked Migration ACT, they informed me that they only issue one invitation per person per year and would not provide another invitation if I withdrew the current one. They advised me to seek guidance from a migration lawyer, which increased my stress even more. Yet, I had a feeling there might be a way to rectify the situation.

I searched for the best migration lawyers in the ACT and came across VisaEnvoy and Ben Watt’s excellent recommendations. I immediately made an appointment with him in October 2023. He was incredibly attentive and patient in listening to my situation. He clearly explained what needs to be done and following his advice, we proceeded with the visa application.

After 1 year and 3 months, we were delighted to learn that our PR was granted without any further requests for information from the Case Officer. This entire experience would not have been possible without Ben Watt’s expertise. We cannot speak highly enough of Ben Watt-he is truly a great lawyer in his field.

It was a great experience working with Ben. He was incredibly responsible, efficient, clear, and patient. Our family was so fortunate to be supported by him and truly appreciate everything he has done for us. We all wholeheartedly agree to give him 10 stars!

My partner (Canadian citizen) and I (Australian citizen) hired Ben Watt to help us lodge her partner visa. Our case was quite complex as we had long periods of long-distance during our relationship and did not live permanently at one fixed address.
Ben was recommended by a family friend and was absolutely phenomenal (if not essential) in helping us lodge the visa. He is very knowledgeable and experienced, but what we appreciated the most is how he would go above and beyond to help us every step of the way. He is very good communicator and helped break down the bureaucracy in a way that was easy to understand. When submissions were due, he was always responsive and would even call us often on weekends (Ben, if you're reading this you deserve a holiday!).
Ben is very trustworthy and gives honest advice, which helps give a realistic picture on what the outcome will be. With all that said, thanks to Ben we achieved a phenomenal outcome with my partner gaining PR significantly faster than we ever could have hoped.

If you are planning to lodge a visa, hiring Ben will give you peace of mind & a guarantee your application will be the best it can be. Would absolutely recommend!

My spouse and I hired Ben Watt to represent us in my migration matter. My case was difficult at the best of times, as I have Kidney Disease, and every other attorney told me it was impossible. I would recommend Ben Watt to any person that is needing a migration attorney. He is smart, knowledgeable, and an all around caring and decent person.

I just got my PR today after 10 years of struggle. I wouldn’t be able to get this without the impeccable service and great support from Ben. I would say he is the best immigration lawyer in ACT region.
I came to Melbourne in 2014 for my Bach Degree in Business as it’s my passion. Although I knew at the time I would like to stay here in Australia, I didn’t switch major as I don’t want to give up on my passion for accounting. I moved to Canberra in 2018 for a chance of regional pathway 190. If I knew Ben from 2018, I would save myself so many years from making poor decision.
When I first came to Canberra, there wasn’t even Canberra Matrix, the rule was clear and simple, study or live and work there for a period of time, I would be eligible to apply for PR. In the next two years, I kept chasing the rules which was constantly changing. It felt as if opportunity after opportunity slip through my fingers. In 2021 when I nearly completed my Master degree, I was so depressed and preparing to return to my home country as the hope seems so out of reach. Then my friend who just applied for 491 visa through Ben recommended him to me. I contacted him and few other lawyers as my last attempt. During the conversation, Ben provided the most reliable advice and showed a dept understanding and insightful knowledge. Our cooperation started in 2021, I got my invitation in 2022, got CO contacted in 2023 for another health check and finally my visa granted in 2024. One of the issue that made me miss so many opportunities in the past 10 years was lack of preparation, Ben always prepared me for the worst. During the time of so many changes in the migration laws, Ben discussed any possibly risk and provided guidance to avoid them. My visa application process is so smooth that I knew I will got PR only in the matter of time.
Working with Ben changed my life not only because of the PR but also the constant support he gave to encourage me leaving my comfortable zone to get a better job that has a great impact on my application and my live. I have also recommended some of my friends to him and they all got great results working with him. If you want a reliable and truthful service that can maximise your chance of PR, Ben is the guy you need.
