The department of Immigration and Border Protection puts limits on the number of visas granted each year, which is called capping and queuing. It means you are put on a waiting list until the visa category you have applied becomes available because the limit set on the number of visas to be granted has been reached.  Mostly those applying for family, parent visas are kept on a waiting list.
