Trends and Patterns in S56 Requests
The most common S56 requests on 09 July 2026 involved Polio vaccination certificates, appearing in multiple cases across different states and occupations. This suggests a systematic review by DHA for compliance with health requirements. AFP checks and remedicals were also requested, particularly for applications lodged in late 2025 and early 2026.
For priority occupations (Registered Nurses and Physiotherapist), visa processing times were notably faster. Two Registered Nurse applications showed processing times of approximately 1 month (TAS 190) and 1 month (189), while the Physiotherapist received a grant in approximately 6 months. These expedited timelines align with Ministerial Direction 105 prioritisation for Health occupations.
For non-priority occupations, processing times varied significantly. Applications lodged in 2024 and early 2025 experienced processing times exceeding 12 months, with some WA 190 applications taking up to 22 months. The Conference and Event Organiser case demonstrated that escalation to local ministers and the Ombudsman may have contributed to resolution after extended delays.
State-specific observations: WA 190 applications showed longer processing times compared to other states, with multiple S56 requests issued. NSW and VIC 190 applications demonstrated more moderate processing times ranging from 4 to 16 months.
