- What it is for
- This form is used to request de-identified settlement data from the Department of Home Affairs, allowing organisations and individuals to obtain statistical datasets about settled arrivals rather than information about any named person.
- Who completes it
- It is lodged by the party requesting the data, such as a researcher, organisation, or other data user seeking settlement statistics.
- Information it collects (in general terms)
- It gathers the requestor's contact and organisation details, the arrival date range and visa parameters of interest, the demographic categories requested (subject to a column limit), the geographic scope, and how the data will be used and whether it will be published.
- When it is used
- It is used when an aggregated, de-identified settlement dataset is needed for analysis or reporting, with requests generally finalised within a few business days.
