Immigration Department Annual Report 2017, Appendix 5: Statistics on Visas/Entry Permits Issued
Has everything in it been taken?
CompleteReviewed 8 Oct 2026
Reviewed. Everything in it that belongs in the tables has been taken.
What the document holds
Appendix 5 of the ImmD Annual Report 2017: one table of visas/entry permits issued by scheme for 2015, 2016 and 2017. The only programme row is 'Capital Investment Entrant Scheme' entry visas (all three years now extracted; the earlier-year columns match the earlier reports). Other rows (employment schemes, students, dependants, visitors, pre-arrival registrations, extensions of stay) are not about the programme; the dependant-visa row mixes all schemes and is out of scope. Footnote: CIES suspended since 15 January 2015.
