1. Visitor Visa (subclass 600): 15–45 days.

2. Student Visa (subclass 500): 3–6 weeks.

3. Work Visas (e.g., subclass 482, 186): 1–5 months, depending on the stream.

4. Permanent Residency Visas: 6–24 months, depending on the category (e.g., skilled migration).

Factors affecting processing time include application completeness, documentation, and the volume of applications. Always check the Australian Department of Home Affairs website for updates.
