Tax Representative: Do you use a lawyer or online agent?

Hey, I had my lawyer be my tax representative when I first applied for my GV. They’ve been doing this for me for the past 4 years. In July 2025, my wife and I had our biometrics and made the payment, but we are still awaiting our residency cards.

I understand that as long as I don’t have my cards, I need a representative. And because it is just me on the title deed then my wife won’t need a represetnative.

Can someone confirm my understanding please? And has anyone tried any of the online tax representatives? (I changed my lawyer so I either move tax representation to new lawyer or hire an independent one but not sure which to use)

Thank you!!
