Success stories from our clients

Erina and her team were awesome helping me to get my citizenship. Immigration had no records of me entering Australia prior to 2000, but Erina found I had proof because I had registered with Centrelink in the early 1990’s. Once she had proof of this I was able to sidestep the permanent resident process and basically go through the Citizenship process, which is a slow process in itself (Erina had already forewarned me prior). All the processes and timeframes described by Erina on my initial zoom meeting were very accurate and she and her team did all of the ground work required, which was great for me as I work very long hours underground with no reception. I can’t praise Erina or her team enough as it is all deserved. Thank you to Morunga migration as I officially became a citizen on the 14/3/22.

Picture paints a thousand words ….I have had the privilege to be represented by Morunga Migration in my journey. I am now a proud citizen of Australia !! They were supportive through out my journey and explained each step as we proceeded. Through my experience I would recommend without hesitation.

Erina your kite of knowledge and the essence of what it is to be Maori is like the scent of a rose, that will always stay on the hand of the giver. Because of you and your wonderful team, my wings are no longer bound, I can soar high on the winds of life with confidence and free. You have done this for me, for which I’m more then grateful. Whira te tangata e hoa. He aha te mea nui o te ao. He tangata, he tangata, he tangata. You weave the people together. Thank you, thank you Erina

I just want to encourage those who are of two minds. I would say, give Erina a call/email or live feeds, have a korero. By the end of my first korero with Erina, I knew what visa I was/could use for PR. Erina dispelled all the myths out there ( which stopped me for years). Before I knew it, my citizenship started. I made a economic decision to invest in Erina, her expertise and her knowledge. It has been a wise and seamless process.

Blessings to you Erina
