Reasons for slow examination of electronic visa for studying in Australia
It is reported that one of the biggest differences between the electronic visa for Australian students (evisa) and the traditional visa (PVA) is that the approval speed is fast, usually it can be approved within two weeks, but some of them take one or two months or even longer. Visa officials said that in three cases, electronic visa approval was slow when staying in Australia.
It is understood that these applications will be assigned to Australian visa officers for approval within 3 working days after all the steps such as information input are completed online, usually 5 working days. If the materials submitted are complete, very authentic, credible and clear, and consistent with the first approval of the visa officer, it is not surprising that they will be approved within 3 to 5 days; If the visa officer has problems or materials are missing, there will be problems such as supplementary materials, and the approval time will be extended.
First, the "incomplete" visa materials lead to slow approval.
Generally speaking, a complete application can be completed within 2 weeks, and an incomplete application can be completed within 6 weeks. "Incomplete materials" refers to insufficient evidence required by the Immigration Bureau, such as physical examination results, some major documents and materials to be uploaded online, and cases that have been included in targeted surveys or random surveys without results. There are many factors, such as intermediary operation errors, whether the medical examination hospital cooperates, whether the applicant cooperates, and being selected as the object of spot check, which may lead to the delay of application.
Second, the influence of network technology on speed.
According to visa officials, the electronic visa system is an online operating system based on Internet transmission. Whether the visa website of the Australian Immigration Bureau can log in successfully and whether the two parties can dock smoothly is directly related to whether the candidates' applications can be issued smoothly.
Third, the impact of the peak visa period on the speed.
Adelaide Visa Center is mainly responsible for the examination and approval of traditional visas for Indian students and electronic visas for China and China. At present, there are 22 visa officers in the visa center, 9 of whom are responsible for the examination and approval of electronic visas. July and August are the peak periods for Indian students to submit e-visas, which may slow down the approval process or cause confusion.
E-visa applications can be submitted at least 4 months before the start date of the registration course in Australia (subject to COE) and at least 12 weeks before the start date of the course. Because students who have not been further evaluated will sign the contract within 12 weeks, if the application materials are incomplete or further evaluated, the evaluation time will exceed 12 weeks. If candidates miss the start of this semester, they will be postponed to the next enrollment. The candidate must submit a new COE, but the original position of the candidate in the e-visa application queue will not change.
