from VEM · host VEM
Partner Visa Processing Time varies by subclass and location. For onshore applicants, Subclass 820 typically reaches finalisation for half of cases in about 20 months and for 90% in about 25 months. Additional Information: Partner Visa Processing TimeSource: https://vemvisa.com/partner-visa-processing-time/The permanent stage, Subclass 801, often begins assessment roughly two years after lodgement and sees 50% finalised in about 12 months and 90% in about 21 months. Offshore pathways show Subclass 309 at around 16 months (50%) and 27 months (90%), while Subclass 100 averages 10 months (50%) and 24 months (90%).Common causes of delay include incomplete documents, weak relationship evidence across financial, household, social, and commitment factors, inconsistent statements or timelines, outstanding health checks or police clearances, prior visa refusals or character concerns, and high application volume. Preparing a complete application reduces avoidable processing pauses: include clear, dated joint financial records, tenancy or mortgage details, photos with captions and dates, consistent statutory declarations, and an organised relationship timeline. Ensure medical exams and police checks meet validity requirements and upload translated, legible documents. Monitor ImmiAccount and respond promptly to requests.Use evidence breadth to show a genuine, continuing partnership: joint bank statements, shared bills, joint leases, travel together, joint insurance or wills, children’s birth certificates if applicable, and corroborating statements from close contacts. Strong, consistent documentation and quick replies to Department queries help minimise additional delays and improve the chance of concurrent or closely timed decisions on temporary and permanent stages.VEM is ready to support applicants with tailored guidance and document preparation suited to their situation.Vietnam Office: SAV.6-03.06 The Sun Avenue, 28 Mai Chi Tho Street, Binh Trung Ward, Ho Chi Minh City, VietnamAustralia Office: Level 24–25, 108 St Georges Terrace, Perth WA 6000, AustraliaVietnam Hotline: 0909 112 310Australia Hotline: (+61) 865 578 833Website: https://vemvisa.comEmail: [email protected] more:https://vemvisavietnam.blogspot.com/2026/07/partner-visa-processing-time.htmlhttps://sites.google.com/view/vemvisa/cac-loai-visa-uc/visa-hon-nhan-uc/partner-visa-processing-timehttps://vemvisa.wixsite.com/vemvisavn/post/partner-visa-processing-timehttps://br.pinterest.com/pin/616711742772408237https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:share:7481277246171672576/
