Sanctioned agent Jack Ta – a Fellow of the MIA – a member of the MIA for twenty years – a former Vice President of the MIA. And the MIA turned a blind eye. As was clear with the corruption of MIA former President Kevin Lane and his criminal association, the rot runs deep at the MIA.
This is what the regulatory body – OMARA – said about Jack Ta the then Vice President of the MIA.
Office of the Migration Agents Registration Authority (the Authority) decided to cancel the registration of Registered Migration Agent Mr Jack Ta (MARN 0212473) following an investigation into allegations of suspected misconduct.
The Authority found that the Agent breached of his obligations under section 312A of the Migration Act 1958 and clauses 2.1, 2.4, 2.8, 2.9, 2.23, 5.1 and 5.5 of the former Code and sections 13 and 18 of the current Code for registered migration agents.
The Authority found that the Agent:
• Acted with a blatant disregard for, or a significant degree of indifference to, the migration law and the visa programs in general;
• Made misleading, deceptive or inaccurate statements and otherwise acted dishonestly;
• Deliberately concealed his involvement a significant number of visa applications with a view to mislead the Department;
• Failed to act competently, diligently or fairly with his clients and demonstrated a lack of regard for their reliance on his experience and expertise;
• Submitted applications without the consent of his client;
• Acted without regard for the adverse impact his conduct would have on the reputation of the migration advice industry;
• Charged his clients fees that were excessive and not reasonable in relation to the relevant matters being handled on their behalf.
It was also determined that the Agent was not a person of integrity and not a fit and proper person to give immigration assistance.
The Agent’s cancellation will be in effect for a period of 5 years from the date of the Authority’s decision.
