Representatives of the Department of Immigration and Multicultural Affairs (DIMA) will visit communities in the Central West of New South Wales this week (8 to 10 August) as part of an ongoing commitment to provide immigration services in regional and rural communities.
Departmental representatives will meet with interested people for face to face interviews in Bathurst, Cowra, Forbes, Parkes, Orange and Lithgow. They will be able to discuss any immigration topic ranging from sponsoring spouses, citizenship, visitor visas and business sponsorship. People interested in attending are encouraged to make appointments with the centre of their choice. A general information session will also be held in Lithgow.
