About the Australia visa

Australia's subclass system covers study (500), sponsored work (482) and points-tested skilled migration (189/190), with a healthy visitor stream.

Australia issues this visa electronically. You apply online, upload a passport scan and a photo, pay the government fee and receive the approval by email; nothing is stuck into your passport and there is no consulate visit.

Fees. The Australia government fee is $178 and the vistolane filing fee is $199, an all-in price of $377 per traveller with no surcharge at the consulate. The published processing time is Visitor (600): 75% within about 30 days. vistolane commits to a decision date before you pay and shows the 30-day window on the price card above.

Validity and stay. A Australia e-visa is valid for 12 months and allows a stay of up to 3 months per visit on a multiple-entry basis. Routes covered on this page: Subclass 500 Study, Subclass 482 Work, 189/190 Migration, Visitor 600.

Refusals. The most common Australia refusal reasons are inconsistent bank statements, weak evidence of ties or purpose of travel, and form errors that contradict the passport. Every document you upload to vistolane is checked against the Australia checklist before filing, and the mock interview tool covers the questions case officers raise in follow-up requests.
