A partner visa is broken down into two stages: Subclass 820 (Temporary) and Subclass 801 (Permanent). Under the current regulation, an applicant applies for both temporary and permanent visa on the one combined application form.

The current processing time for: As you can see, the processing time for Subclass 820 is around two years. In some cases, DoHA would also grant the Subclass 801 as you have already waited two years. However, if you are not granted Subclass 801 immediately after the grant of Subclass 820, you would have to send extra documents to DoHA to show genuineness and continuity of the relationship. Therefore, the wait for a subclass 801 ranges from two to 3.5 years.Processing Time:
While regulations stipulate that applicants must wait two years between Subclass 820 and Subclass 801, this is not always the case. In limited circumstances, applicants can bypass the two-year waiting period.
In most cases, you will have to write to DoHA informing them your change of circumstances.
Above are the possible exceptions to the two years waiting period.
