Partner Visa Processing Priority

Family and Partner Visa Processing Priority.

Partner visa applications are NOT processed purely in the date order that they were applied in.

For example:

Partner Visa applications, where the sponsor or proposed sponsor entered Australia as an illegal maritime arrival (IMA) and is currently the holder of a permanent visa, are placed LAST in order of priority, irrespective of other priorities.

Immigration currently state the following:

Family visa processing priorities.
