If Immigration Detains You in Australia: How 'Two-Day Clock' Is Calculated

The 'two-day clock' commences on the day after the immigration detention review officer (DRO) is informed of the application.

Immigration practice requires that a decision is made on the application at the earliest possible opportunity, within two working days. For example, a DRO is informed of an application at 4pm on Friday afternoon. The two-day working clock starts on the next working day.
