We are thrilled to share some exciting news with you! The Department of Home Affairs has recently made a significant announcement. Processing times for a range of visa subclasses have been notably reduced, bringing good news to prospective travelers and immigrants.

Average Australian Visa Processing Times:

  • 📚Student (subclass 500) visas: Within an impressive 16 days
