Dear Roshan, 
I refer to your email dated 3 February 2022 in which you request access to documents 
held by the Department of Home Affairs (Department) under the Freedom of 
Information Act 1982 (the FOI Act). 
 
You have requested access to: 
GTI visa EOI wait time - How many days currently it's taking to get the UID after 
submitting the EOI in space, defence and advanced manufacturing sector? 
 
On 2 March 2022, Department notified you of a requirement to pay a processing 
charge of 15 in respect of your request.   
In particular, Department notified you that, within 30 days of receipt of that letter, you 
must either: 
•  agree to pay the charge; or 
•  contend that the charge has been wrongly assessed, should be reduced, or 
should not be imposed; or 
•  withdraw the request. 
Department notified you that if, within 30 days of receipt of that letter, you failed to notify 
Department of one of the above matters, your request would be considered to have been 
withdrawn. 
The 30 day period has now expired and Department does not appear to have heard from 
you in response to that Notice.  As such, in accordance with section 29 of the FOI Act, 
Department considers that your request has been withdrawn. 
If you have any enquiries concerning this mat er, please do not hesitate to contact me
