返回澳大利亞居民簽證

回國居民簽證（155 類和 157 類）之間的區別主要在於它們提供的旅行設施的持續時間。155 子類簽證提供了一個長期的解決方案，允許前澳大利亞永久居民或公民通過在五年內多次重新入境來無限期地保持與澳大利亞的聯繫。該簽證對與澳大利亞有密切聯繫的個人或最近持有永久簽證的人特別有利。 

Conversely, the subclass 157 visa offers a shorter travel facility, allowing re-entry into Australia for a period of three months. This visa is suitable for individuals who may have departed Australia temporarily for compelling and compassionate reasons and need to return within a shorter time frame. Whether one opts for the longer-term flexibility of subclass 155 or the shorter-term solution of subclass 157 depends on their individual circumstances and travel needs, including their cultural ties, overseas family members, or Australian citizen partners.

Processing times for Resident Return visas are dynamic and subject to fluctuations, but the current data available showcases the following estimations: For the Three Month Resident Return Visa (subclass 157), roughly 50% of applications undergo processing in approximately 23 days, with 90% processed within an average of 71 days. Conversely, for the Five Year Resident Return Visa (subclass 155), about half of the applications are processed in less than one day, while 90% are typically finalised within approximately 16 days. It is crucial for applicants to remain informed by regularly checking the processing time tool provided on the Department of Home Affairs website, ensuring access to the most recent updates and insights concerning their visa application status.

在澳大利亞，您可以申請回國居民簽證（155 或 157 類）的次數沒有限制。但是，每次申請時都必須滿足資格標準，包括居住要求和證明與澳大利亞有實質性聯繫或令人信服的缺席原因。請記住，每個申請都會產生費用，處理時間可能會有所不同。建議在提交申請之前仔細評估您的情況並確保您符合必要的標準。 

無論您是前澳大利亞永久居民、澳大利亞公民，還是持有近期永久簽證身份，您都可以根據需要申請回國居民簽證。此外，如果您最近離開澳大利亞或有澳大利亞公民伴侶，您必須在申請時提供令人信服且富有同情心的缺席理由。該簽證對於具有文化聯繫或經常出國旅行的個人至關重要，因為它使他們能夠保持與澳大利亞的聯繫。
