No Comments. No Grants. Just Waiting — Fair Process for Iranian Skilled Visa Applicants

Mobina Jourghasemi

We live just once, and we tried hardly to prove our qualifications. It has been YEARS waiting for VISA. Our lives had been suspended since we lodged. We are UP IN THE AIR!

Atabak Tammuzkhah

This is important because it effects my present and future life directly, and I expect being treated the same way other nationalities are being treated.

Iranian applicants should not be indefinitely penalised because of their nationality or circumstances beyond their control. We understand Australia’s security concerns, but genuine applicants who meet all legal requirements deserve an individual, fair and timely assessment. Visa delays affect students, skilled professionals and families and can seriously disrupt their education, careers and lives.

Mojtaba Javid

Waiting 24 months for a skilled visa is simply not fair. This prolonged uncertainty has seriously affected our lives, mental wellbeing, family decisions, career plans, and especially our children’s education and future planning. We understand the need for proper security checks, but applicants who have waited this long deserve fairness, transparency, and a timely decision.

Fatemeh Heidarloo

24 months of waiting is not just a number — it is 2 years of uncertainty and putting our lives on hold. It affects our careers, finances, family decisions, mental wellbeing, and our children’s education. This is simply not fair. We deserve transparency and a fair, timely decision.

Ali Nematzadeh

Not fair

elaheh shabani

I received the 190 invitation exactly 26 months ago and still haven't been granted a visa. This length of waiting time is not fair.

Because I have been going through the Australian immigration process for the past two years

Not fair

Hajar Torabi

This visa means more to us than simply entering Australia. It represents the hope of building a safe, stable and secure future. We have invested significant time, effort and financial resources in this process and have been waiting patiently. The prolonged uncertainty makes it extremely difficult to plan our lives. We respectfully ask for fair, transparent and timely processing of Iranian visa applications.

Because I have been waiting for my visa to be granted for about 15 month

MohammadAmin Hatef

I lodged my 491 visa on 7 December 2023, completed medical and biometrics around the same time, and have gone through skills assessment twice (2019 and 2023). It's now been 33 months since lodgement with no comment and no grant. Please make the processing of Iranian skilled visa applicants fair and transparent

Iranian skilled applicants should not face discrimination because of their nationality. We followed the rules and qualified through a legitimate skilled migration pathway. We ask for fair, transparent, and equal treatment.

Pari Rasooli

Education restriction is the violation of human rights. Preventing a whole nation from Education is against human rights. Iranian have the right to access quality education.

Farhad Seifolsadat

Hello and greetings, please do not subject us Iranians to your sanctions because it is truly a violation of human rights because we have no role in politics or war for which we have to pay the price. Please reconsider your decision and do us this favor. With thanks and respect.

Peyman Mohammadi

More than 29 months of uncertainty, limbo, and waiting — literally a living hell.
