Streamlined Visa Processing Arrangements

Streamlined visa processing arrangements are due to be enacted for Australian Universities by the end of March. The arrangements come out of last year’s Knight review which recommended students with a confirmation of enrolment from a participating university be automatically assessed as an AL1 applicant.

The Department of Immigration and Citizenship (DIAC) has also provided a fact sheet outlining the arrangements. Click here to read the fact sheet. ( http://www.immi.gov.au/students/_pdf/2011-university-sector-streamlined-processing.pdf)
