最近收到消息，伴侣签证的第二阶段，也就是820临时居住配偶签证持有人转801永久居住配偶签证的审理时间，又可能要延长了！最近移民代理联盟工会的律师收到来自移民局配偶签证审理部门主管的回信提到:

This year the Department is facing a particularly difficult resourcing environment with pressure to decrease staff numbers in line with the Government’s wider plans to reduce public sector expenditure. In the Partner Migration programme this is occurring in an environment of continued high application rates, growing pipelines onshore, and significant fraudulent activity.
Due to the resourcing restrictions, average processing times for most Temporary Partner and Permanent applications are currently between 16-23 months from date of lodgement (s/c 820) and from date of eligibility (s/c 801/100). The processing times are updated regularly on the DIBP website and we encourage you to check the following link: http://www.border.gov.au/about/accessaccountability/service-standards/global-visa-citizenship-processing-times .

这意味着因为目前移民局为了减少开销，移民局配偶签证审理部门的签证官的人数已经和以往比起来越来越少了，这是为什么移民局的签证审理时间会越来越长的原因。

根据信上提到，目前境内820和801签证的审理时间是在16-23个月左右的审理时间，这是目前2017年4月收到的统计数据，我们建议如果有资格申请配偶签证的，能越早申请越好。

提醒大家，现在办理配偶移民的人数仍在逐年上升，如果有意向办理配偶签证移民，最好趁早准备材料，提交申请！
