About this report
This report provides year to date data about permanent and temporary migration by state/territory and statistical division
where available. It aims to assist state/territory/regional governments and other stakeholders to better plan for and
manage migration in their regions.
Data is sourced from several departmental visa processing and recording systems. Data currently in legacy systems is
being migrated to newer systems leading to improvements in output. Data is dynamic and there can be delays in
transmission of information from the department's global operations. Variations in figures between this report and
previous reports can occur. Due to these issues, data from the current financial year should always be considered
provisional.
Permanent Additions, Settler Arrivals and Permanent Departures data sourced from passenger cards is not included in
this publication following processing issues with the cards.
This report will be developed over time to increase and improve information sharing about the various visa programmes
by state/territory.
