“How to apply to become a licensed immigration adviser”

If you want to become a licensed immigration adviser, you need to apply to the Registrar. You must fill out a form that the Registrar approves. You might have to pay a fee when you apply.

When you apply, you need to give some important information. You must tell the Registrar your full name and when you were born. You also need to give an address where people can send you important papers. If you have a different address for your business, you need to share that too.

The Registrar might ask for more information or documents. If they do, you need to provide what they ask for. Sometimes, the Registrar might ask you to make a special promise called a statutory declaration. In this promise, you would say that you’re allowed to be licensed and that everything in your application is true.
