There can be many factors: applications from the so-called higher risk countries usually take longer than lets say European countries. Higher risk countries could include: Middle East, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iran, many African countries, etc. if there is any complexity in your case, it can take longer for you. Complexities could include having an earlier divorce, having had problems with prior visa applications, health/character issues, etc. applicants from some countries are subject to additional background checks which can delay one's application significantly the local high commission of your country could be understaffed and/or over-worked With the above in mind, it's impossible to predict the processing time of any individual application. What country did you apply from? Do you think your case falls in any of the above cases I listed? Edited July 9, 2018 by Andy_ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes back then the processing estimate provided by DOHA was 10-13 months. Currently they have 13-18 months on their site which gets updated every month with the latest times https://www.homeaffairs.gov.au/about/access-accountability/service-standards/global-visa-citizenship-processing-times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The authorised hospital must issue you a WHO approved vaccination card (yellow in colour) as proof of polio vaccination. A plain certificate on paper is not acceptable. 3) These don't even need to be affidavits. Statements written on normal paper and signed at the bottom are enough. I, and 10 odd friends of mine who went through this process, typed and printed our statements (1-2 pages) and signed them. My migration agent advised me to do the same. 6) I think statements from your and your wife's siblings should suffice but it would be safer if you include 1 or 2 statements from cousins/aunts/relatives/friends etc. My agent advised me to submit 3-4 statements instead of 2. Translation of Urdu Nikah nama into English can be easily done at your local kachehri. If you don't know where one is in Karachi, ask around. Once you're in the kachehri, you will find dozens of translation agents just sitting in the streets who have templates ready for such translations. Let them know that you need this for a visa - they'll know the relevant stamps and signatures to get. Shouldn't cost you more than a few hundred rupees. Thank you @Andy for your detailed response.
