Visa research and drafting, grounded in current Migration Regulations.
Quillio gives Australian migration agents and immigration lawyers faster research across the Migration Act, Migration Regulations, and Department policy — with drafting support for applications, submissions, and AAT review.
Quillio is built for Australian migration practice — skilled, family, partner, employer-sponsored, business, protection, and student visas, plus citizenship and AAT review work. It is trained weekly on the Migration Act 1958, Migration Regulations 1994, current Department of Home Affairs policy, AAT and Federal Court migration decisions, and the MARA Code of Conduct — so advice and drafting reflect the regime that actually applies at lodgement.
What gets in the way
The frustrations we hear from migration agents & lawyers again and again.
The Migration Regulations change constantly
Instrument updates, policy changes, legislative instruments, and occupation list revisions happen weekly. Advice given in October on criteria applying at lodgement may not match what the delegate actually applies in February.
Visa subclass criteria are dense
Each subclass has primary and secondary criteria, time-of-application and time-of-decision requirements, Schedule 1, Schedule 2, and PIC references. Generic AI tools flatten this structure and miss the nuance.
AAT review timelines are short and unforgiving
21 or 28 days from refusal to lodge — and the review submission has to address the specific findings in the decision record. Building a compelling review submission at speed is hard without help.
MARA compliance is a constant overhead
Client Services Agreements, confirmation letters, file notes, fees disclosure — the MARA Code of Conduct imposes documentation obligations that take time from substantive work. A tool that streamlines compliance drafting pays back immediately.
Built for how migration agents & lawyers actually work
Migration Act and Regulations — current
Trained weekly on the Migration Act 1958 and Migration Regulations 1994 as amended — current occupation lists, current instrument numbers, current PIC references.
Visa criteria analysis with citations
Ask about criteria for any visa subclass. Quillio returns the primary and secondary criteria, time-of-application and time-of-decision structure, and relevant AAT and Federal Court interpretation — with citations.
AAT review submission drafting
Draft AAT review submissions that address the specific findings in the decision record — with current case law on jurisdictional error and the correct and preferable decision framework.
MARA-compliant client documentation
Draft Client Services Agreements, scope confirmation letters, and file notes aligned with the MARA Code of Conduct — so compliance runs alongside the substantive work.
AU data sovereignty for sensitive client information
Migration clients often share deeply sensitive personal information — protection claims, relationship evidence, health and character disclosures. Quillio keeps it on Australian infrastructure, SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certified.

How current is Quillio on the Migration Regulations?
Quillio is trained weekly on the Migration Act 1958 and Migration Regulations 1994 as amended, plus current legislative instruments (including occupation lists, points test instruments, and PIC instruments), and current Department of Home Affairs policy. Research reflects the regime as it applies at lodgement — not historical criteria.
Can Quillio handle complex subclass criteria?
Yes. Each visa subclass has its own structure — primary and secondary criteria, time-of-application and time-of-decision requirements, Schedule 1 form and fee requirements, Schedule 2 criteria, and PIC references. Quillio preserves that structure in its analysis rather than flattening it, which is how the criteria are actually assessed by delegates.
Does Quillio help with AAT review submissions?
Yes. Quillio drafts first-draft AAT review submissions that address the specific findings in the decision record — including credibility, evidentiary weight, and criteria application. It applies current case law on jurisdictional error from the High Court and Federal Court, and the correct and preferable decision framework the AAT applies.
How does Quillio support MARA compliance?
Quillio drafts Client Services Agreements, scope confirmation letters, and file notes aligned with the MARA Code of Conduct and current Office of the MARA guidance. Compliance documentation runs alongside the substantive work rather than after it.
Is client material safe for protection and sensitive claims?
Yes. Protection claims, relationship evidence, health disclosures, and character material are some of the most sensitive information a migration client shares. Quillio is SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certified and runs entirely on Australian infrastructure — client material stays on Australian soil.
Will Quillio replace specialist immigration counsel?
No. Quillio accelerates the research, criteria analysis, and drafting volume — which frees you to spend more time on client strategy, evidence gathering, and advocacy. For complex protection matters or Federal Court judicial review, specialist counsel remains part of the team; Quillio supports them rather than replacing them.
Try Quillio on your own work.
For a migration agent or immigration lawyer, the most useful first test is a live client assessment — upload the client's documents and see Quillio surface the applicable subclass criteria, evidence gaps, and strategy. The free trial needs no credit card and no sales call, and client material stays on Australian infrastructure throughout.
