About the data

  • · EOI data comes from monthly SkillSelect snapshots (the last 12 months are held). Each month shows the state of the whole pool as at that date, not that month's activity.
  • · Counts under 20 are masked as “<20” by the Department so individuals can't be identified; they are excluded from totals here.
  • · Visa processing times come from the Department of Home Affairs and refresh daily.
  • · State nomination requirements are summarised from official state programs and reviewed manually when the source pages change.
