In this episode I talk to Anka Sahin, an Australian immigration law professional, who has assisted thousands of individuals from more than 80 different nationalities and advised some of the most prominent corporate entities in Australia on employee eligibility, sponsorship obligations and compliance.
Between 2010 and 2012, he successfully and single-handedly lobbied the Immigration Advisers Authority (IAA) in New Zealand to adopt a Māori name as well as institute a standard Māori term for 'Licensed Immigration Adviser'.
Due to the nature of his work and his own experience of integrating into two different countries as a migrant himself, Anka has an intimate understanding of the practical as well as legislative obstacles faced by new migrants wanting to take part in politics in Australia.
