• Subclass 485 subsequent entrant visa processing times 2019

The following processing times have been taken from a sample of forty two subclass 485se applications that were granted in the first half of 2019.

The processing times varied between 45 days and 154 days, but those that applied with a decision ready application, were much faster than those that did not.

• • Decision Ready applications, those listed that stated “no additional info requested”, took between 45 days and 89 days.
  • Incomplete applications, those that received a Request for Further Info [RFI] took between 86 and 154 days.

A Decision Ready application appears to be much better for a faster decision.

  • 25% took between 70 and 80 days.
  • 25% took between 80 and 89 days.

Processing Times for 485se Incomplete applications, granted in 2019:

• • 50% took 100 days or less.
  • 25% took between 101 and 105 days.
  • 25% took between 105 and 154 days.

It took an average of 75 days, between (56 and 89 days), for the Immigration department to issued a Request for Further Info to those with incomplete applications. This can be assumed to be a major cause of the delay.
