Trends and Patterns in S56 Requests
S56 requests remain minimal in today's report. Only two cases reported S56 activity: one for a Polio certificate for a partner (NSW 491 Accountant) and another for NZ police clearance consent (NSW 190 Medical Diagnostic Radiographer). The majority of grants were direct grants with no S56 requests, suggesting streamlined processing for most applicants who submitted complete documentation upfront.
Priority occupations (Medical Diagnostic Radiographer, RN Medical, RN NEC, Secondary School Teacher) continue to demonstrate faster processing times compared to non-priority occupations. The Medical Diagnostic Radiographer received a grant in approximately 12 months, while the Secondary School Teacher and RN NEC received grants in approximately 6 months from lodgement. Non-priority occupations such as Chef (15 months), Accountant (16 months), and Engineering Technologist (15 months) experienced longer processing times.
South Australia's RN Medical grant was notably fast at approximately 1.5 months from lodgement, demonstrating expedited processing for priority health occupations. Victoria also showed efficient processing for Civil Engineer (5 months) and Engineering Technologist in Queensland (14 months).
