Dear Danilo Macedo,

 

On behalf of the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment I
acknowledge your email of 30 August 2024 requesting under the Official
Information Act 1982 (the Act), the following:

 

‘I would Like more information regarding the visa applications received
since October 2022 and draw results and visa applications broken down by
country.

 

1 - In November 2023, all EOIs in the queued pool were selected, so how
many approvals per year will happen from 2024 onwards? When will 2500
visas be granted per year for people in the pool?

 

2 - What is the current application status received by month since October
2022?

An easy way to present it (and could be updated regularly on the website)
is using DIA template:

https://aus01.safelinks.protection.outlo...

 

3 - Can you please break down the EOI and Applications received + status
since October 2022?

 

4 - This is such simple information to gather; why is it not provided on
the immigration website regularly, following the example of DIA?

 

5 - How can I check the status of the EOI we submitted and check if it's
about to expire? And why this expiration period? It looks like immigration
wants to get money without providing visas. It should at least grant a
number of visas by EOI dates.’

 

We will endeavour to respond to your request as soon as possible, and no
later than 27 September 2024, being 20 working days after the day your
request was received. If we are unable to respond to your request by then,
we will notify you of an extension of that timeframe.  

If you have any enquiries regarding your request feel free to contact us
via email to [1][MBIE request email].

 

Nâku noa, nâ
