How long does it take to process a visa?

Australia's visa processing times vary by the type of visa being applied for.  Factors which influence processing times include:

  • the place where the visa application was made
  • visa processing workload at the time
  • whether all the necessary documents have been provided
  • the complexity of the visa application
  • turnaround times for medicals and character checks

On average, an independent Australia skilled migration visa can take around 12 months to process.  If your occupation is on the priority processing list, you can expect a quicker response.

Other Australian visas such as business skills visas, partner visas, employer sponsored visas and retirement visas will normally be processed fairly quickly.
