Sam Kanjo

Prospective Marriage 300De facto and registrationPIC 4020 and character

Sam runs partner visa strategy for couples with a complication: a short de facto history, a record on either side, an earlier refusal or a wrong answer in an old application. He combines legal knowledge with hands-on case management, preparing decision-ready files that meet what the Department actually tests.

He guides couples through evidence collection, Form 888 witnesses, sponsor checks and character submissions, and speaks to both partners on every call. Practical, responsive and direct, Sam writes most of the articles on this site.

Client stories

Couples on working with Deepika and Sam.

Client words, lightly trimmed for length. Every matter is different and past results do not predict yours.

My partner and I had a complicated situation with limited documents, and we were terrified about being refused. Deepika helped us prepare strong relationship evidence, explained every step clearly, and supported us through each request from the Department. Our partner visa was approved much faster than we expected.

We were really stressed about our partner visa, but Deepika handled everything with care. She helped us organise our evidence properly and our visa was approved without issues.
