JOB OVERVIEW

We are seeking an experienced migration paralegal based in the Philippines to prepare Australian Partner Visa applications and communicate confidently with clients.

This role requires a firm minimum of five years of hands-on Australian Partner Visa preparation experience. Excellent written and spoken English, professional client-facing skills, and confidence speaking with clients by telephone and Zoom are essential.

THE ROLE
• Onboard Partner Visa clients and maintain organised client files.
• Issue approved questionnaires and document checklists, collect supporting documents, and follow up missing information.
• Review forms and evidence for completeness and consistency, including names and dates; record gaps and escalate concerns to the supervising lawyer.
• Prepare application forms, draft correspondence and supporting document bundles for lawyer review; implement review feedback and maintain accurate versions.
• Explain approved administrative steps, request documents and provide factual progress updates to clients by phone, Zoom and email.
• Record client communications, instructions, deadlines, outstanding tasks and application status; promptly escalate urgent matters.
• Coordinate handovers with the legal team and protect confidential client information using approved systems and procedures.

The role focuses on Australian Partner Visa preparation and does not include employer-sponsored visa applications. Legal advice, visa strategy and final application approval remain with the supervising Australian lawyer.

ESSENTIAL REQUIREMENTS
• At least five years of direct, hands-on experience preparing Australian Partner Visa applications.
• Excellent written and spoken English, including clear professional correspondence.
• Confident, respectful and professional client communication by telephone and Zoom.
• Strong attention to detail, organised file management and reliable deadline follow-up.
• Ability to work effectively with a supervising lawyer and respond to review feedback.
• A reliable computer or laptop, a second monitor, and stable high-speed internet suitable for video calls and online work.

WORKING ARRANGEMENT AND PAY
Remote from the Philippines, under an independent contractor arrangement. Forty paid hours per week, Monday to Friday, 9:00 am–5:30 pm Brisbane time (AEST, UTC+10), including a 30-minute unpaid lunch break each day.

AUD $1,600–$2,000 per month, based on relevant experience and capability.

Apply through OnlineJobs.ph with your CV and a concise response covering:
1. Your exact number of years preparing Australian Partner Visa applications, the subclasses handled, and the preparation tasks you personally completed.
2. Your experience speaking directly with clients by telephone and Zoom, and drafting professional English correspondence.
3. Your expected hourly rate in AUD.
4. Your availability to start and ability to work the stated Brisbane hours.
5. Confirmation that you have the required computer, second monitor and internet connection.
