As I stated in an earlier BLOG post, I’ll be putting up regular posts on how long visas are taking to be granted for Down Under Visa clients. Just note please that:

(a) This does not include visas not granted yet. This is only visas that have been granted.

(b) Partner visa averages are based on the last 3 months

(d) There are a few extremes, and for this reason I’ve put an ACTUAL average, as well as a more realistic average for each.

Subclass 300 Prospective Marriage Visa

Average 6.75 months

Shortest 3.5 months

Longest 10 months

Realistic Average 10 months

Subclass 309 Partner Visa

Average 14.75 months

Shortest 9 months

Longest 17.5 months

Realistic Average 10.37 months

Subclass 820 (for Subclass 300 holders already in Australia)

Average 10 days

Shortest 1 day

Longest 35 days

Realistic Average 3 days

Subclass 600 Tourist Visa

Average 21.2 days

Shortest 8 days

Longest 75 days

Realistic Average 19 days
