Dear Vish,

 

The Department of Home Affairs (the Department) has received your request
for data on 19/03/2023. Your reference number for this request is
DA23/03/00055.  

 

The Department has interpreted your request as follows: 

 

·         Number of Employer Nomination Scheme (subclass 186) visa
applications lodged, granted, refused, and on hand for Electrical Engineer
ANZSCO 233311 from 1 January 2022 to 31 January 2023—both Accredited And
Non-accredited candidates. 

 

If we have misinterpreted your request, please let us know by emailing
[1][Department of Home Affairs request email] quoting the above reference number so we can
reassess your request.  

 

Charge for access 

 

The Department has calculated that a charge of $30.00 is required for your
request.  

 

Next Steps 

 

You can now choose to: 

·         pay the attached invoice for your request to proceed; 

·         email [2][Department of Home Affairs request email] to tell us if your request has
been incorrectly interpreted; or 

·         email [3][Department of Home Affairs request email] to tell us if you wish to
withdraw your request. 

 

Your request will not be processed until you take one of these actions.  

 

Please note: if you do not respond by 4 April 2023 your request will be

If you believe that paying the charge for access would result in financial
hardship to you, you can request a waiver or reduction of the charge.
Please set out the reasons you believe that you would experience financial
hardship and provide supporting evidence.  

An example of financial hardship would be when payment of the charge would
leave you unable to provide food, accommodation, clothing, medical
treatment, education or other necessities for yourself or your family, or
other people for whom you are responsible.  

Your request for a waiver or reduction of charge will be considered, and a
response sent to you within 30 days.

Hi Vishal,

The data is for all visa applicants by the characteristics specified. Accreditation does not apply to the visa applicant. Accredited sponsor status is a characteristic of the Temporary Skills Shortage and current reporting does not enable us to report on whether a nominator under the Employment Nomination Scheme is also an accredited sponsor. The data below would include applicants who were nominated by employers who use the TSS visa program and those who do not. Arguably an employer who is not approved under the TSS program is not a sponsor at all but the data below would not exclude any applicant.
