Indicative community data, not official, not advice. Always check the Department of Home Affairs for official processing times.

Sharing experiences helps everyone — but under Australian law only registered migration agents and Australian lawyers can give advice about your circumstances, and scam “agents” actively target visa groups. Before paying anyone, check them on the official register ↗, read the Home Affairs scam warnings ↗, and never trust anyone who guarantees a visa. Every practitioner here is registration-checked.
