Normally countries like Australia or Canada take 8-12 months or more, it differs from country to country. As per our experience in most of the cases, the duration of the process depends upon the way an applicant has planned his/her migration and willing to bank proactively on the favorable conditions, like how well the applicant is preparing in advance the documentation and other aspects of the process for the next stages. Again it differs from case to case basis & the type of the visa. We need to also understand that the applicant will not have any control on the timelines of the various authorities, however, he/she can definitely control the time consumption in filing the applications from his/her side.
