Does anyone know how many 189/190 lodgements and grants are from and to priority occupation applicants, and how many non-priority occupation applicants? If not, any reasonable estimates?

Also, we have 16500 new 190 allocations for the eight States and Territories for the 2024-25 financial year, but why am I seeing a total of over 20000 lodgements for the same financial year by the end of April already? How does it make any sense? How can there be more lodgements than allocations?

And no, the 33000 number is for visa grants, not invitation allocations, which is the 16500 number, from my understanding.

TAS update 27 June 2025 All nomination places for the 2024-25 program have now been used. We are continuing to process lodged nomination applications and any remaining successful applicants will be nominated when we receive our new allocation in the 2025-26 program year. During this period there may be some delay between processing of an application and notification of decisions.

Any recent grants or updates for NT offshore applicants in the marketing field? Would appreciate any insights or timelines from others waiting or recently granted. 🙏
