Meet Diana, the visionary behind IMMIGATE!

In 2008, Diana founded IMMIGATE with a bold mission: to revolutionize Australian immigration services by offering cutting-edge solutions built on her extensive expertise from the Department of Home Affairs (DOHA) and the private sector.

Diana’s journey began in 2006 when she joined the Department of Home Affairs. It didn’t take long for her to notice a critical gap in visa solutions, inspiring her to become a registered migration agent. She quickly made her mark, spearheading one of the first labour agreements for a publicly listed international company and overseeing corporate immigration services for top-tier global and national organizations.

A defining moment in Diana’s career was being mentored by Mr. Gavin McCairns, a former senior executive in multiple Australian government departments, including Immigration and AUSTRAC. This guidance further solidified her expertise and leadership in the immigration sector.

With over 18 years of experience, Diana has built a reputation as a trailblazer in the industry. Her dynamic approach, relentless dedication, and client-focused mindset ensure exceptional outcomes for every case. She leads a team of highly skilled agents and lawyers who stay at the forefront of ever-evolving immigration policies and laws, ensuring IMMIGATE consistently delivers unparalleled service.

IMMIGATE’s specialization in selective industries has earned the trust of an impressive roster of clients, showcasing the team’s professionalism, expertise, and results-driven approach. Diana’s in-depth knowledge of skilled and working visa programs, combined with her credibility and personable nature, makes her and her team the ultimate resource for navigating Australia’s immigration landscape.

I am so relieved to have my residency and would like to thank you Diana for your assistance in making my dreams come true. I contacted Diana a year ago very stressed and concerned I would not be able to stay in Australia. When we met she was so calm, positive and professional. We defiantly had some challenges over a long period of time however Diana always advised me promptly throughout the process and demonstrated a personal approach, with a great sense of humour. She is very knowledgeable and communicates extremely clearly. It was the most amazing moment when Diana called me to inform me my visa has been approved. Incredible! thank you once again, you were brilliant!

Flawless Service and Advice! Immigate saved one of our employee's work visa which was due to be cancelled. Diana provided us with the most strategic advice that helped him win back his 457 visa and avoided cancellation. She knows her stuff and she gets things done perfectly. Amazing work!

I appointed IMMIGATE to help me with both a temporary and a permanent sponsorship working visa. Diana was the one who helped me and my family over a period of 6 years in total and this year I was finally granted the PR. Along the way Diana was so honest, patient, straightforward, professional and so generous with the time she invested in us. She showed more care and concern to our case than we did ourselves. she used to constantly follow up with us to ensure that we get the visa on time. our case was not easy and we did go through major complications especially on behalf of our employer but Diana made our lives stress free and always put our minds at ease. We are grateful for her compassion, ethics and all the hard work she put towards our immigration case. Thank you so much IMMIGATE and I highly recommend you to every person or business looking for immigration assistance in Australia.
