Processing
Humanitarian Visas
the ministry has taken various steps to process the application. These efforts recognize those most at risk and recognize the unique and extraordinary contributions made by individuals and their families to the Australian and coalition mission in Afghanistan.
Applications are generally confirmed in writing and processed as soon as possible according to the date of receipt. Processing times may vary depending on the applicant's particular circumstances, residency (domestic or international), travel ability, ability to submit documents or ability to communicate with Australian government officials. All visa applicants under the Humanitarian Program must meet both visa criteria and public interest criteria of character, safety and health before a visa can be granted to the individual. Australia's humanitarian resettlement program for Afghans is currently focused on neighboring Pakistan and Iran.
Australia will also consider the following Afghan applicants recommended by UNHCR:
turkey
India
with Indonesia
Malaysia.
This is because the protracted and unstable situation in Afghanistan has severely limited the ministry's ability to process humanitarian visa applications in the country. Afghanistan does not have facilities to collect applicants' biometrics, conduct comprehensive visa interviews, or verify identities and civil documents.
Not a priority for Afghanistan's Retention Program to ensure timely resettlement is granted to those most in need, and to reduce uncertainty for those awaiting the outcome of their applications. Applications may also be submitted by Afghan Remain applicants. Even if you consider it, it will be rejected. Applicants who were previously rejected may apply again. However, repeated applications may yield the same results unless circumstances change or new information is available to support the application.
We will continue to closely monitor the situation in Afghanistan and recognize the special needs of vulnerable people. The Australian government has called on all those remaining in Afghanistan to put safety first. Those remaining in Afghanistan should carefully consider the risks of attempting to leave the country by any route.
