Re: Processing times for student visas
It took about 4 months onshore where I was categorized 2 in risk countries list. My understanding is that processing for onshore student visa application is considered low because they get bridging visa when they lodge application thus have right to study until decision is made. However the offshore applicants have to wait for study until they have visa.
They will vary depending on whether the applicant is in Australia or not and also with what country risk factor is assigned.
