Visa to Australia

[beano]

Hi, can check anyone recently applied or approved 601 AU visa?

If so, can share how long it took? I have 2x adults (both 30s) and 2x children (both below 6) and all are SG citizens.

Thanks!

SG passport no issues, almost immediate approval.

Just rcvd the ETA approval. 7 weeks from initial lodgement, 6 weeks from when additional docs were submitted.

Yes correct, eETA for SG Citizens are immediate.

My spouse (msian citizen) applied eETA and submitted additional docs since 5 May and no news yet. Similarly, we have cancelled accommodations booked and postponed our flight.

Hi, for Malaysian passport, may I check if anyone had an issue with the name section after scanning the passport with the app? My spouse full name is reflected under the family name section, while given name is blank. There doesn't seem to be an option within the app to amend. Thanks!

No issues with SG passport, the family name and given names are reflected correctly after the scan.

Sorry for a very basic question, where do I apply ETA now? Used to do it with a member here

I think you can just manually key in passport details instead of scanning

Hi, may I know how long it took your ETA to get approved? I received the same further processing message

Is it apply for visa first or book air ticket first?

If my new passport still in progress, means I have to wait for my passport first?
