Curated answer for the Working Holiday visa room No. Home Affairs states that the applicant remains responsible for accurate information. It also distinguishes an agent's appointment from the role of an authorised recipient who receives correspondence. Source: Home Affairs: Using a migration agent. General information; no lawyer or registered migration agent has reviewed this editorial answer.
