Mr. Nicolaas Hendrik van Voorst van Beest helped with my partner visa application (sc. 309) and we (my partner and I) couldn't be more grateful. We lodged our initial application offshore in October 2023 and we were assigned a case officer from DoHA in November 2023. We were required to supply further documents, of which we submitted in December 2023. To our surprises, not only my visa (sc.309) was approved in February 2024, but I was also granted a permanent residency visa sc.100 at the same time! At the time of writing this review, I have safely returned to Australia to be with my partner and enjoying our life together. I have to add that I was recommended to Nick by my family member, whom also applied for a partner visa successfully. So the results and the records are testament to Nick's expertise.

It had been an amazing journey. Nick is an wonderful and professional person. He has vast knowledge and heaps of experience in partner visa. I have done the entire process through email and from a different state.he replies very prompt to any inquiries and he has a portal for his clients and questionnaires that makes all the paperwork easy both for the client and for him as well. All you gotta do is upload the files and evidences in given places. Nickis very very organised in paperwork and evidences. I applied for my workrights and next day it got approved without an interview. My visa process that seemed almost impossible made possible by coral coast migration and Nick.ThanksRaian.

I wholeheartedly recommend CCMS and in particular migration agent Nick Van Voorst. He helped us waive the 2-year wait to get my Permanent Residency just a couple weeks after I was granted Temporary Residency, by advising on additional evidence on our long-term relationship at the time of application, as well as putting together a formal letter to request the PR grant and advising how to submit it all. He was super quick, dependable, thorough and also very pragmatic and straightforward managing our expectations, whilst being supportive and really invested in our case. Really glad we found him.

Nick @ CCMS has guided us through a process which can be stressful at times. Having not having an agent to deal with things would have been a nightmare I’m sure. Having peace of mind that everything is in good hands is paramount. I highly recommend Nick Van Voorst, he does his homework on his profession, and that speaks volumes.We now have our Visa granted and can move forward with our lives. Thanks again Nick!J & C

Takes all the stress and any uncertainty you may have away. My fiance and I highly recommend Coral Coast Migration Service. Thank you Nick!

Nick is so knowledgeable and incredibly professional and from the outset we felt in really safe hands with our partner visa. We were very impressed with Nick’s speed of communication from the first email and he was readily available to answer questions via email or phone throughout what is a really stressful process.We were shocked to received our off-shore partner visa in just 6 months and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Nick to anyone applying from an Australian visa in future.

Words cannot express the personal, professional and value of the agent's dedication to each and every applied for visa.We used Coral Coast's services for two separate visas being a Student subclass 500 and a Permanent Residency visa.We have no hesitation in recommending Coral Coast Migration Service for any and all visa applications, going far above and beyond just applying for visas.Thank you Nick for all your efforts and personalisation for us.Colin & Xia Chamings

I have recently been able to see Nick in action with his work as a migration agent. If you are looking for someone to help you navigate the mazes of the Australian migration legislation, then it makes sense to use someone that not only knows the way but also someone that can help you with professional empathy

My Fiancé (who is from Morocco) and I have been successful in being granted our Prospective Spouse VISA in 5 months. Choosing Nick as our representative was the best decision we made. We tried to navigate the process ourselves and WOW we were confused. The day we hired Nick, the process became clear, concise and organised. Nick answered all our questions promptly, guided us patiently, and helped us put together what must have been a rock solid application. Getting the correct certifications and papers in Morocco took a long time. Each department my Fiancé went to told him different things. Many the wrong things. But with Nick knowing exactly what is required, we knew what we needed and did not make any mistakes in our application. Thank you Nick for your 5 star service! Absolutely fantastic ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I applied my visa from outside Australia.Nick's service helped me a lot in this process. Solve every problem right away and answered my questions quickly. At the end I got my residency in 10 months (progress time was 14-29 months on border.gov.au)Applying and waiting for a residency visa can be so frustrating and nerve racking sometimes it was so good to be work someone professional and experienced like Nick.

I am from the PHILIPPINES and that alone surmised how complicated my case was. Finding the right RMA can prove tricky. I needed to find someone that I could trust. I placed my family's life in Nick's hand and though it had been such a roller coaster, it was well worth it in the end. Nick had been professional, straight to the point and level headed with the situation. I never stop recommending him specially to couples who are on the same boat as us.

Nick is the definition of "professional" he is extremely knowledgeable in all matters relating to immigration.

After endless google searches and reading forums relating to partner visas, we decided to engage a professional to guide us and advise us. Nick (CCMS) gave us exactly what we wanted, clear and accurate advice on how to go about obtaining a visa, followed up by regular updates and strategies. The visa was granted by the department in the time frame that Nick advised. We couldn't be any happier with Nick's professional service and we highly recommend Nick and CCMS to anyone about to embark upon a visa voyage.

My partner and I filed a partner visa application last December through Nick, which has just been approved this month! A big part of the (surprisingly) quick turnaround can be attributed to Nick, who is very knowledgeable, organised, and reliable. Even when he went on holiday, he was always more than happy to respond to our emails. We couldn’t have had a more pleasant and professional experience. We wish you all the best, Nick!
