482 Visa Processing Times – Why is my 482 visa taking so long?

We understand how frustrating it can be when you're waiting on a visa decision. Many applicants expect a quick turnaround after submitting their 482 Visa application, only to find themselves waiting months with little to no updates.

Which type of 482 Visa have you applied for?

The Temporary Skill Shortage (TSS) 482 Visa was accepting applications up until 6 December 2024 after which it closed. The new Skills in Demand (SID) 482 Visa opened on 7 December 2024.

Therefore, applicants who applied before 7 December 2024 are awaiting a decision on the old TSS 482 Visa, while those who applied on or after 7 December 2024 are waiting for a decision on the SID 482 Visa.

Processing times for old TSS 482 Visa applications are longer

The standard processing times for the TSS 482 visa for the Medium- and Short-Term Streams are currently, at the time of writing, as follows:

50% processed in 5 months

90% processed in 8 months

Processing times for Skills in Demand (SID) 482 Visa applications are shorter

Processing times for the Skills in Demand 482 Visa are currently reported by the Department of Home Affairs as:

Core Skills Stream

50% processed in 43 days

90% processed in 84 days

This means that 10% of applications are taking longer than 84 days—sometimes much longer.

Specialist Skills Stream

50% processed in 8 days

90% processed in 67 days

482 Visa priority processing times

There are also several other considerations that affect 482 processing times, such as the occupation you’ve applied for. Under Direction 105, processing priorities are assigned as follows:

Priority 1: Employer-sponsored visas for occupations to be carried out in a designated regional area


Priority 2: Visas related to healthcare or teaching occupations


Priority 3: Employer-sponsored visas where the applicant is nominated by an approved sponsor with Accredited Status


Priority 4: Permanent and temporary visa subclasses that count towards the migration program, excluding the Subclass 188

Priority 5: All other visa applications

If you fall under Priority 5, your application may take longer to be processed.

Accredited sponsors

Nominations and visa applications from accredited sponsors are generally processed faster. From an employer’s perspective, applying to become an accredited sponsor can significantly reduce processing times.

Long processing times may lead to refusals

If your application is taking significantly longer than the standard processing times, it may be undergoing additional checks. Depending on the findings by the Department of Home Affairs, there may be further information requests—or in some cases, the application may be refused.

Make sure all required information has been provided, and that your medical examinations and character requirements have been completed, as these are crucial to visa processing.
