Trends and Patterns in S56 Requests
The S56 requests observed today primarily involved health assessments (medicals and remedicals) and supporting documentation.

Priority occupation grants (Registered Nurse) demonstrated significantly faster processing times compared to non-priority occupations, with the QLD Registered Nurse receiving a grant in just 11 days from lodgement.
