Australian Immigration constantly changes processing timelines. The immigration agency evaluates each application individually. Processing complex instances may take longer. The mentioned processing timeframes should only be used as a guide. You have no control over these times.
Your application may take longer to process if:

  • you do not fill it out correctly;
  • you do not include all needed papers;
  • Immigration requires more information from you; and it takes time to validate your information.
