Timing
⏱️ Processing Time
Once iVacs Australia receives your child’s complete application and supporting documents, we typically prepare and lodge it within a few business days.
After lodgement, minor passport renewals are generally completed within 3–6 weeks, depending on verification and the workload of the Indian High Commission or Consulate.
Important: processing times are estimates and can vary with government verification, postal delivery and holiday-period demand. Applying well before planned travel is strongly recommended — and if you need the passport urgently, ask us about Tatkaal (expedited) eligibility.
