On 19 September, 2026, The Minister for Home Affairs provided new Directions to visa processing priorities.  Directions 121 and 122 replaced Direction 119.  These do not change who is eligible for visa, but the order in which applications are decided.  They apply to applications already lodged and awaiting a decision.

Techvisa have provided a very informative fact sheet to help you understand the new directions.  If you’d like to be connected to the Techvisa team, please reach out to Jens for an introduction.
