Trends and Patterns in S56 Requests

The majority of S56 requests issued in August 2025 were for remedicals and PCC renewals, affecting primarily 491 NSW offshore applicants who lodged in July 2023. This pattern suggests systematic processing of applications approaching the 12-month validity period for health and character documents. Several applicants received multiple S56 requests, with the most common combination being remedicals followed by PCC or employment evidence. One applicant reported proactive PCC updates due to expiry, which may help avoid S56 requests. Partner English evidence was requested in two cases for 189 applications, despite valid test results being submitted initially.

News and Updates

All states have reportedly received their full allocation for the current period. Official announcement expected on the DHA website within 1-2 days.

Be sure to constantly follow up with your agent , especially if you are based in India and ensure that all your EOIs and ROIs are up to date.

Constantly check your email. I missed out an early invitation as the email got lost in my inbox. Be proactive with it.

Make sure that you choose an agent, if you can. Especially someone who will help you with the process as well as the job process.
