Overview
What this service covers
Immigration compliance failures are rarely deliberate. They accumulate: a permit that was never updated after a role changed, records held in three places and reconciled in none, a policy written for a jurisdiction the business has since outgrown.
An audit establishes where you actually stand. We review your policies, records, and practices against current requirements in the applicable jurisdiction, rank what we find by exposure, and give you a remediation plan you can act on rather than a list of observations.
What's included
Scope of work
Policy review
Your written immigration policies assessed against current law and practice in the applicable jurisdictions.
Records and file review
Sampling of employee files, permits, and supporting records to test what the practice actually is.
Practice testing
Reviewing how immigration processes run day to day, which is frequently not what the policy describes.
Risk ranked findings
Findings ranked by actual exposure, so remediation effort goes where it matters first.
Remediation plan
A practical plan with owners and sequencing, not a list of problems.
How it works
We are Aligned with your Business
Every Docurement engagement follows the same five stages, so you always know where a matter stands and who is responsible for it.
Initial consultation
We start by understanding your entity, workforce, sector, and current position — no commitment required.
Scoped proposal
A clear, transparent breakdown of what is required and how our fees are structured, separate from any government or authority fees.
Engagement & authorisation
Formal engagement with the appropriate authorisation for us to act on your behalf with the relevant authorities.
Dedicated point of contact
A single, accountable contact manages your file from instruction through to completion.
Ongoing reporting
Regular updates on completed actions, items in progress, and anything approaching a deadline.
Why Docurement
What makes the difference
Exposure quantified
Knowing where you stand — and how serious each gap is — is the basis for every decision that follows.
Prioritised, not exhaustive
Not every finding deserves the same urgency. Ranking them is what makes the output usable.
Same team can remediate
We can carry out the remediation we identify, so findings do not sit in a report unaddressed.
FAQs
Common questions
Less than most clients expect. Most of the work is document and record review, with a limited number of interviews. We scope it around your team's availability.
That depends on jurisdiction and privilege considerations, and it is a question worth addressing before the audit begins. We discuss the appropriate structure with you and your legal advisers at the scoping stage.
Either. Multi-jurisdiction groups often benefit most from a group-wide view, because inconsistency between entities is itself a common source of exposure.
