We all know that in applying for a visa, processing would take time, and we either become impatient in waiting for our visas to process, become to relaxed in getting the requirements for our visa (further delaying the processing of the visa), or become more and more anxious of what the results would be.
To educate the people on their processing, DIBP provides us with information with regards to processing times of each visa so we can be educated and set expectation on how long your applications will be processed.
