Doctor

In Australian migration law, the occupation of Doctor encompasses a wide range of distinct CSOL classifications covering general practice, resident medical roles, specialist physicians, psychiatrists, and surgeons. Your correct classification depends on your qualifications, fellowship credentials, and the nature of your clinical role.

Why instruct Visa Plan if you are a Doctor?

Correct occupation classification

Selecting the wrong occupation title is one of the most common and costly errors in skilled migration. We confirm the correct CSOL classification before any application is prepared.

Solicitor-led advice

All matters are handled by admitted Australian solicitors, not migration agents. Your communications are protected by Legal Professional Privilege.

Tribunal experience

James Bae represented the Australian Government at the Administrative Appeals Tribunal before founding Visa Plan. That experience informs every application strategy.
