近日移民局官网发出公告：从3月13日起，签证和入籍申请的审理进度可上网查询啦！

NEWSVisa and citizenship processing times available online

相较于之前的只能知道一个标准的审理时间，然后傻傻的等待，现在有了实时查询，能查到更可靠的审理时间，起码我们心中有数，知道下签证的大概时间。

今后移民局将每月更新一次审理时间，公布在审申请量和进度，从而方便大家了解更加准确的某类签证、签证分支及入籍申请的审理时间。另如果对于不再接受新邀请、有配额限制或处于排队的签证，移民局不会再公布审理时间。

Processing times will be updated monthly to reflect current caseloads and processing pressures, and will be available for most visa subclasses and citizenship application types. We do not publish processing times for some subclasses, as they are closed to new entrants, or capped and queued.

同时移民局提醒大家一定要提交完整申请，这样才能保证你的申请在公布的审理时间范围内。下面是为大家整理的一些影响审理时间的情况：

1. 你是否提交了包括所有必需材料的完整申请
2. 要求补料时你的回应速度
3. 要求进行的检查（如体检）你所花费的时间
4. 从外部各方获得额外的信息所需花费时间，特别是有关健康、品格，国家安全和担保相关的
5. 签证所剩名额
6. 申请是否处于申请高峰期

To ensure that your application falls within the published processing times, you must lodge a complete application. Your application will be assessed on a case-by-case basis, and actual processing times can vary due to individual circumstances, including:

        whether you have lodged a complete application and included all necessary supporting documents

        how promptly you respond to requests for additional information

        how long it takes to perform required checks

        how long it takes to receive additional information from external parties, particularly in relation to health, character, national security, and Assurance of Support requirements

        the number of places available in the migration programme

        surges in demand and peak periods.
