FOI request FA 21/10/01119: Significant Investor and Investor stream applications and grants by country, nominator and year

FOI release FA 21/10/01119 (4 pages): Significant Investor and Investor stream primary applications lodged and granted (subclasses 188 and 888 together), FY 2012-13 to 31 Oct 2021, by citizenship country and by government sponsor (state/territory, Austrade, "Not Specified"), plus withdrawal and refusal rates by year; notes on masking, financial years and rate definitions. No totals printed. Earlier rows (CHN and HKG cells, refusal rates) were already in the data and match the PDF; added every other citizenship cell, every sponsor cell and the 20 withdrawal rates. Columns were assigned from word positions in the PDF (blank cells are not recorded). Check: for each year the citizenship and sponsor tables of the same activity give overlapping sums once "<5" is taken as 1-4, so the two splits are consistent. Rules restated from other sources are now recorded from this document too (decision 8).
