This upgrade simplifies the visa process, enhances approval rates, and reflects the growing trust in Sri Lanka’s education system and applicant credibility.
At the forefront of this development stands Sirus Migration and Education a leading consultancy headquartered in Brisbane with offices in Melbourne, Sri Lanka, India, and South Korea, Png, New Zealand, Colombia. With over 20 years of expertise in guiding international students and migrants, Sirus Migration is proud to support Sri Lankans in making the most of this opportunity.
For countries classified under Assessment Level 1, visa applicants benefit from a smoother and more supportive application process.
Students face reduced documentation requirements, no longer needing to provide extensive financial and academic evidence, which makes the process faster and less stressful.
This classification also leads to significantly higher visa approval rates, as applicants from Level 1 countries present fewer compliance risks and enjoy a stronger chance of success.
In addition, streamlined applications ensure faster processing times, enabling students to receive outcomes sooner and move forward confidently with enrolments and travel plans.
Beyond immediate student visa benefits, this enhanced confidence in the system creates a positive flow-on effect across other visa pathways, including graduate, skilled migration, and permanent residency applications.
This change positions Sri Lankan students more competitively in the global education market and opens doors to long-term settlement options in Australia.
As a trusted partner in migration and education, Sirus Migration is dedicated to ensuring that Sri Lankans take full advantage of this change.
The company offers full guidance from Initial consultations to visa lodgement and settling in Australia and New Zealand and personalised guidance on student visas, skilled migration, partner visas, Parent visas and permanent residency pathways.
The team is led by a group of highly qualified professionals with extensive expertise in migration and education services.
At the helm is Isuru Yapa, CEO and Registered Migration and Education Agent for Australia.
He is joined by Yogesh, a Registered Education Agent for both Australia and New Zealand, and Ashani, a Registered Migration Agent and Education Consultant for Australia and New Zealand, who specialises in partner visas.
Together, they bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to guide students and migrants through every stage of their journey.
With this depth of expertise, Sirus Migration provides end-to-end solutions for students and families, from choosing the right education pathway to securing permanent residency.
The inclusion of Sri Lanka in Assessment Level 1 not only strengthens the ties between Australia and Sri Lanka but also signals confidence in Sri Lankan students as future contributors to Australia’s workforce and society.
Sirus Migration & Education remains committed to supporting this journey by offering trusted advice, professional representation, and dedicated services across its international offices.
