Immigration and Relocation Services to Australia and New Zealand

What services do we supply to help people successfully migrate?

James Cagney has an overwhelming desire to help others personally grow and prosper. This is often very difficult for those considering immigrants to Australia and immigration to New Zealand. Achieving success in a new country because things are very different to your home country. Just because Australians and New Zealanders speak English and look like migrants like you it does not mean the think and act or think like you do.

James refers to the process of migrants settling into their new country this way:

The Honeymoon Period

When you first arrive in the country everything is new. You look for the good in everything you see and hear. The streets are clean, no beggars and pesky vendors at every traffic light, the drivers are more courteous, the people are friendly, the school teachers are helpful, the Civil Service are courteous, skilled and "civil" in the true sense of the word. You pay taxes and therefore they serve you. The Government is truly democratic, the police force is not corrupt, the infrastructure is in good repair, etc, etc, etc.. And then to the;

The Reality Period

You look for a house. Rentals are hard to find. Your furniture arrives. You look for a job or start a business. Private schools and child care is expensive. There are a lot of skilled people around. The employers are not overawed by your qualifications and work experience. People compete fiercely for the best jobs. Business competition is tough. And then to the;

The Remorse Period

Now you may become critical. Everything is so different. You wonder whether you have done the right thing. You can’t afford a maid. You can't afford a gardener. You miss your family and friends. So much red tape to start and do everything. You remember the ‘braais’, the game parks, the family get togethers. You don’t know which sports team to support etc, etc, etc. You are home-sick. You say "Was it worth it, my friends in South Africa are better off than me". Your family and friends in South Africa are overjoyed because they think they made the right choice and happy to say "I told you so Boet things are not so good over there". And then to the;

The Acceptance Period

You find jobs. Your business is up and running. Your kids can walk to school or catch a bus on there own. . You are no longer "Mom's Taxi". You say to yourself , “Well we made our decision and we will have to live with it. We’ll have to toughen up. We will have to be more accepting of people, events and circumstances”. You realize that your new life takes time and effort. And then to;

The Passion Period

Your kids are happy at school. They make friends. Their parents become your friends. You wonder how you could ever have lived in that awful country. Your relatives (rellies) and friends from South Africa come to visit you. It is a lot cheaper than staying in a hotel. You try and persuade them to migrate. They are impressed and motivated to come. They need your help. You know which team you will support (Australians and New Zealanders expect you to shout for your home country). You may want to shout for the State rugby and cricket team. As they say in Australia "It’s all good mate".

James and many of the migrants he has helped over the last nineteen years want to share their knowledge and experience with as many people as possible. They have done it, learned through the school of "hard Knocks" and want to help you prosper in your new country
