A possible obstacle with migrating? Posted on: Wed, 7 May 2008 18:04:03 +0000


Hi everyone

I considered 6 years ago to migrate to Australia, but my lawyer advised
me that if the childrens father had access he could object and stop the
children and I from moving to OZ. Their father made it abundantly clear
he'd do anything in his power to stop us going. So I gave up before I
even started.

His name is on the birth certificates, but we never got married.

I went for a second opinion and legal advice last year, and now that
the both children are 15 and 13, and he's took nothing to do with them
pretty much for the last 3/4 years, never in all their lives had a
penny child support and was told he won't have a hope in hell of
stopping me now they're both 12+.

Has anyone faced this kind of obstacle before, when trying to move to
Australia? I don't want to start fighting a losing battle.

Also, would I need a family lawyer for this? Or do migration agents
deal with these problems when they occur?

Many thanks
Angela
