to process their claims are determined by the Australian government. Currently, asylum seekers who arrive by boat are processed offshore in Nauru and Papua New Guinea under the government's offshore processing policy.

The processing of refugee claims can vary in length, with some asylum seekers spending many years in detention before their claims are finalized. The Australian government has faced criticism for the prolonged processing times and conditions in detention centers.
