Sahba Posted April 22, 2021 Report Share Posted April 22, 2021 (edited) Hi All, Is there any update about the 143 visa processing time? I can hear some rumors about changing the tracking system to the fast processing so that all outstanding visas be granted soon. is this news correct? On the other hand do we still know about the next financial year budget for parent visas? is this again increasing to at least 7000 visa per year? As I mentioned before I applied for my parents on June 2017 but I don't know what would be the estimated time I still need to wait to see them Edited April 22, 2021 by Sahba typo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The processing dates table was updated on the 16th April and they are still stating processing 143 Applications lodged "Lodged May 2016" 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sahba Posted May 13, 2021 Report Share Posted May 13, 2021 I just looked at the new budget for 2021-22 seems no changes made for parents visas so this year also would be limited to max 4500. Is it correct? I am very disappointed ☹️ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be aware that the 4500 figure 2020-21 included both the on and offshore contributory, non-contributory and investor stream parent visas - not just the 143 visas. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WendyAllison Posted May 14, 2021 Report Share Posted May 14, 2021 It is still on May 2016. I'm May 2016, and I was informed that the quota for 2020 had been filled.

TeeTMI Posted May 14, 2021 Report Share Posted May 14, 2021 Just for information as this impacts very much on the speed of processing and will let you see why it takes so long to go through each month and the processing times extend. The number of 143 visa applications lodged in 2016/17 was 19,787 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barkies Posted May 14, 2021 Report Share Posted May 14, 2021 It could mean that they’re requesting some missed documentation in the ‘Assessment Stage’ as the dates line up..? These processing dates are a snap shot of Feb 2021 though so they may be slightly behind on assessments as well .. Hmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michaelrath Posted May 30, 2021 Report Share Posted May 30, 2021 Hi guys, I applied the 143 CPV for my parents and my sibling as a dependent child on July 2017. He was 21 at the time. At the current intake, it seems it is going to take 5+ years until my application is reached. Does this mean my sibling will no longer be eligible as a dependent child anymore by the time of visa decision? Is there anything we can do? Thank you.

TeeTMI Posted June 6, 2021 Report Share Posted June 6, 2021 Update: a few people have mentioned receiving 'Queue dates' and in the wider community concerns about why some applications have received queue date letters and others not.

Donovan83 Posted June 30, 2021 Report Share Posted June 30, 2021 Has anyone been following the enquiry into visas, including parent visas? https://www.aph.gov.au/Parliamentary_Business/Committees/Senate/Legal_and_Constitutional_Affairs/FamilyandPartnerVisas You can watch the recent hearing here: https://parlview.aph.gov.au/mediaPlayer.php?videoID=546410&operation_mode=parlview I must say, I am feeling a little despondent. We applied in 2018, and at the time we expected about 3 to 4 years wait. At this rate, we have another 5 to 7 years to wait... thanks to the department decreasing processing visas for all parents to half what it was before the pandemic... and yet ramping up partner visas. Very disappointing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carole Posted June 30, 2021 Report Share Posted June 30, 2021 We applied in July 2018 and are also feeling very disappointed about the lack of information and the lengthy waiting time. We also thought it would take 3-4 years - which was a long time, but manageable. However, the goal posts have been moved so many times even before Covid, that I think 5-7 years could be optimistic. Unless there is a change of policy in our favour we're in for a very long wait. Unfortunately, as we get older passing medicals could become an issue 😞 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJM22 Posted July 5, 2021 Report Share Posted July 5, 2021 The Contributory Parent 143 Visa was originally introduced to fast track permanent residency in Australia for parents to be reunited with children already resident in Australia in exchange for a two instalments totalling AUD 47825 per person. Originally based on the annual cap of 7500 Contributory Parent 143 Visa places per annum and the lower number of applications in the queue processing time and grant of this visa would normally have been within 2 to 2.5 years of the application being made. Unfortunately the number of applications for this visa have increased over the years resulting in a greater number of applications in the queue at the end of each migration year. In addition to this the annual cap of Contributory Parent 143 Visa places to be granted each year has fallen from a high of 7500 places in 2009/2010 to 3600 in 2020/21 and 2021/2022 migration years which further extends the time for the visa to be granted. The delays are further compounded due to the fact that since 2016/2017 migration year onwards the number of visas granted in a migration year have been less than the annual cap whereas prior to this visas granted always matched the annual cap. To put this into perspective as of 30th October 2020 49688 Contributory Parent 143 Visas were outstanding to be processed for visa applications made between June 2016 and September 2020. Based on a visa application being made in September 2020 with a queue of 49688 with an annual cap of 3600 to be granted you would be looking at nearly 13.8 years from application being made to visa being granted. (Maybe slightly less if some applications were withdrawn or not approved) . This really is at all odds for applying for Contributory Parent 143 Visa in the first place at a high cost of AUD 47825 per person to be able to gain fast track permanent residency in Australia. The Australian government really need to address this issue and close off any new Contributory Parent 143 Visa applications and commit clearing the current backlog within 2-3 years and introduce legislation after this where new applications made are cleared within 12-24 months of application being made as it is unfair to charge such a high cost for the Contributory Parent 143 Visa and expect people to wait so long to be reunited with their children and grandchildren. Outstanding Contributory Parent Visa applications and outstanding Non Contributory Parent Visa applications at the end of each migratory year used to be reported in the annual report for each migration year published by the government at https://www.homeaffairs.gov.au/ however since migration years 2018/2019 and 2019/2020 they have not provided this detail and now only report the total number of Parent Visa applications outstanding to remove focus that the outstanding queue for Contributory Parent 143 Visa applications is becoming larger year on year.

There is a rapid change in the ratio of working age people to those over 65 in Australia. In 1981-82 there were 6.6 people of working age for every person aged over 65. Today there are 4 working people of working age for every person over 65 and by 2060-161 there will only be 2.7 people of working age to every person aged over 65 based on projections. This presents the government with some challenges as the the proportion of Australians in retirement is projected to increase significantly in the next 40 years whilst those or working age shrink. As the life expectancy in Australia is one of the highest in the world and people are living longer more money will need to be spent on health, pension and aged care services putting a greater strain on government finances. There will be a greater strain on finances because there will be fewer people paying income tax (as a proportion of the population) and more people relying on aged care and health spending. This is also probably the reason why annual143 CPV allocation/cap in each migration year has been reduced from 7500 to 3600 unlike the partner visa allocation which has increased by a massive amount from 39799 places in 2019/20 to 72300 places in 2020/21 and 2021/2022 ( increase of 32501 places each year). The reason the partner visa allocation has been increased is to ensure that individuals who have gained Australian residency through job skills/talent route who are essential to growth of the Australian economy remain in Australia by ensuring that their partners can also gain residency as well to be with them. If the timescale for partners to gain entry was too high there would be a greater risk that individuals that had gained Australian residency through job skills/talent route would not remain in Australia which would then have a negative impact on the Australian economy. It is somewhat disappointing that the government does not appear to appreciate that parents being reunited with their children and grandchildren who are resident in Australia would more than likely give positive benefits to the Australian economy due to the fact that they could look after grandchildren allowing both parents to work more. In addition some parents migrating to Australia would still be at an age where they could work which would also contribute to the economy. Parents who were migrating to Australia and of an age where they were retired would still bring with them assets and pensions which would be spent in Australia also contributing to the economy. Ideally the annual allocation/cap for 143 CPV needs to be increased to clear the current backlog in a shorter period of time. Whether this will happen under the current government remains to be seen !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is somewhat disappointing that the government does not appear to appreciate that parents being reunited with their children and grandchildren who are resident in Australia would more than likely give positive benefits to the Australian economy due to the fact that they could look after grandchildren allowing both parents to work more. In addition some parents migrating to Australia would still be at an age where they could work which would also contribute to the economy. Parents who were migrating to Australia and of an age where they were retired would still bring with them assets and pensions which would be spent in Australia also contributing to the economy. Ideally the annual allocation/cap for 143 CPV needs to be increased to clear the current backlog in a shorter period of time. Whether this will happen under the current government remains to be seen !! Hi @AJM22, Thank you so much for your detailed analysis. It is very disheartening to look at these numbers. Could I please confirm one of your calculations ? You are suggesting that if you applied for 143 Visa in June 2016 it would take 6 months to get it. But this ignores the fact that there were already about 30,000 people in the que as at 30 June 2016. So the real wait is around 8 years (30,000/3,600 assuming that only 3,600 visa are granted since June 2016, which is lower than actual numbers from from 2016 to 2019). If my interpretation of your numbers is correct and someone has applied in September 2017 (using actual visa granted and an assumption of 3600 visas granted from 2020 onwards) they will get the visa in mid 2029, which is equivalent to around 12 years of waiting period. Is that correct ? Thanks Again ! Edited July 13, 2021 by SGS143 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
