Having heard of how stressful acquiring a Family Visa can be, my experience with Skilled Migration Group Limited was different. Their patience, support and professionalism is unmatched. They gave me time to secure all the documents, were readily available for inquiries and guided me all through the process. As a wife of a skilled worker in Australia am really grateful to Skills Migration Group for securing our family Visas on time. Despite all the minor hiccups along the process they maintained a calm composure and encouraged us. When it comes to Family Visas Skills Migration Group Limited is the real deal

Well,it was like a dream to receive a mail from Skilled Migration Group.My journey started in November 2022 first interview in Lusaka,people were very friendly to interact with during interview. I did the first interview and I was called for second interview and I told myself that, this is how my journey to Australia 🇦🇺 begins. Things happened so fast such that documents were gathered and submitted to Skilled Migration Group, visa processing started, to cut the story short. I did not pay any money for me to be in Australia and what i was to there while was still Zambia was the truth people. Here iam clocking two years in Australia through Skilled Migration Group no airticket and visa fee did I pay. Thanks to the Skilled Migration management team for your Dedicated work you are doing to help people to find greener pasture, continue with your good works.

Monica Lwatula It's amazing how time goes. I can’t believe i have been working overseas for 2 solid years, wow! I got a job overseas through Skilled Migration Group. I paid no fee, including costs for medicals, visa processing and flights. Skilled Migration Group is well organised, the team has good interpersonal skills. Thumbs up to the team at Skilled Migration Group who worked tirelessly to make sure i had a smooth transition 😀 Big thanks to Dennis, he's a man of actions...he gave me his word and truly it came to pass and thanks for believing in me. Dennis has got eyes that sees beyond your resume, and connects to the actual person in ways that only few people with a mind like him can understand. I give SMG 5 star If you're thinking of working abroad, think Skilled Migration Group

I just want to share my gratitude to skilled migration group limited, for the opportunity the given me to express my technical experience,technical skills and knowledge i have here in Australia as Diesel Mechanic. They are the best recruiting agents, such that they will never ask you to pay for medicals, flight tickets or like you will pay back the money they have spending on you, to them very nothing like that. I like for me the money i use to spend is just transport for interviews and attending medicals that's it. The Skilled migration group limited are reliable solutions if you looking for new opportunities overseas. So guys out there if they invite you for interviews ,please do hold back ,just go and sell yourself with your skills, experience and knowledge you have in your field of your career.

My journey with Skilled Migration Group started back in April 2023 with my interviews, Dennis was grinding me with tough interview questions, little did I know that I will later be selected for further interviews in Zambia, Lusaka, and I was further tested in my knowledge of heavy plant mechanics. From my first interaction with SMG, I was immediately set at ease that I will not be required to make any payments, and true to their word, my medicals, Visa fees and my relocation to Australia was free, I did not pay a cent, this truly took a lot of weight off my shoulders. What stood out for me and still resonates with me, is the customer service that I received from Dennis and his team, all questions were responded to promptly and with diligence, they understood the anxiety I was going through, like, wondering if I was required to pay for all these services, having to leave my family behind for extended periods, and if I will settle down and fit into my new reality. I wouldn’t have asked for a better team to take care of me. Its been 9 months since my move to Australia, I have settled in well, made a few friends, have great neighbours (who let us use their lawn mower to cut our lawn, LOL, grateful for that), and the best moments are when I bump into some of my country men (Botswana), and we realize how lucky we all are to have gone through this process with Skilled Migration Group. Thank you Dennis and team, and Mrs Frances Helen, you have been outstanding, thank you very much. Continue this great work that you are doing!

My words cannot exactly describe how grateful I am for this life changing experience of being here in Australia. This is all because of an exceptional assistance I received from Skilled Migration Group Limited. This Agent helped me to find the job in Australia without spending any money from my pocket and for that, I will certainly continue to be so grateful for what they have done to me. If there is any one who would love to live their dreams by working either in Australia or on any other parts of the world, look no further Skilled Migration Group Limited is more than willing to fulfill your dreams. I will forever continue cherishing this moment.

I relocated to Australia in 2023 to join AAMG as a Fitter, and I’m incredibly grateful for the outstanding support I received throughout the process. From my initial interview with Den Henri and Brent, to Frances handling all the details of my visa application, everything was managed with professionalism, clarity, and care. I didn't pay anything during the whole process. Special thanks to Tim Guinea, the Director of AAMG, for creating a culture that truly supports new employees, especially those relocating internationally. The onboarding process was smooth, and I felt welcomed and valued from day one. Their assistance made a huge difference in helping me settle in and start my new chapter in Australia with confidence. Highly recommend Skilled Migration Group to anyone seeking a supportive and well-organized recruiter!

I can’t recommend Skilled Migration Group highly enough. Dennis and his team, especially Frances, were incredibly supportive throughout my migration journey—and what amazed me most is that they provided all of this outstanding service completely free of charge. Dennis was patient, encouraging, and always pushed me to believe in the process, even when I had doubts. Frances handled all the paperwork with great care and precision, making the whole application process smooth and stress-free. Thanks to them, I’m now happily living and working in Australia. It’s rare to find a team that genuinely cares and delivers such high-quality support without asking for anything in return. Their service has truly changed my life. If you’re a skilled worker looking to migrate, Skilled Migration Group is the real deal. Thank you so much, Dennis and Frances!

After many applications to finding a Job in Australia turned down and nearly losing hope, I came to know about Skilled Migration Group in 2023 when a friend of mine shared their link with me. I had to try them out even though I had little hope but to my surprise I was called for the first interview and then the second. That's how my journey with them started. During this journey, they promised to provide money for all the expenses starting from medicals to seeing me land and staying comfortably in Australia. They made sure that promise came to pass, I never spent any money during this journey. Its been over a year now and they are still supporting me and now helping out to bring my Family over. Only God can richly bless the whole team at Skilled Migration Group and please Continue doing the good work you have been doing of changing people's lives. Thank You.
