Finally recognising the need to reduce the
ever-increasing delays in processing times, the onshore Partner Visa
management section of the DIBP recently decided to depart from the usual
chronological method of assessing applicants by month of lodgement and favour
Partner applications which are potentially of the highest quality and lowest risk.
In
other words, priority will now be given for onshore Partner visa
applications to low-risk applicants and those regarded by DIBP as fully
front-end loaded with documentation that immediately satisfies Partner
criteria.
Currently
average processing times for most Temporary Partner and Permanent applications
are currently between 16-23 months from date of lodgement (s/c 820) and from
date of eligibility (s/c 801/100).
The
assistance of migration professionals is imperative if your circumstances
require a faster processing time for your onshore Partner Visa application; for
instance if you no longer wish to comply with more onerous visa conditions like
the ones attached to a Student visa or a 457 visa.
Our
expertise will ensure that present DIBP requirements are complied with and your
onshore Partner Visa application will be decision ready when the time comes for
assessment.
