Caveats The Settlement Reporting Facility (SRF) reports on data sourced from the Settlement Database (SOB). There are limitations in the data capture,the actual data and the reporting system.

Data Capture

• SDB collects data concerning settlers who have been granted a permanent (or provisional) visa.

• SDB data is compiled from a number of sources including Department of Immigration and Citizenship (DIAC),other Commonwealth agencies and service providers.

• A subset of SDB data is copied to the SRF on the 5th day of each month.

Data Limitations

• SRF includes settlers who were: o granted a permanent (or provisional) visa after 1/1/1991and arrived in Australia

within 2S months of visa grant,(or are yet to arrive and it has been less than 25 months since their visa was granted), or

o who arrived in Australia after 1/1/1991having been granted a permanent (or provisional) visa prior to 1/1/1991.

• SRF is missing some settlers who were granted visas from 1/7/1999 to 31/08/2003. • SRF has not been adjusted to reflect settlers who are deceased. • SRF has not been adjusted to reflect settlers who have permanently departed Australia. • SRF has not been adjusted to reflect settlers who have had their grants cancelled. • SRF includes some duplicate settler records. • SRF includes many data items that are not mandatory. • SRF includes only the settler's latest known residential (or intended residential) address.

Address information is only updated if DIAC is notified. Some settlers have no address details recorded.

• SRF location data is based on the 2001Australian Standard Geographic Classification (ASGC).

• SRF includes only the latest permanent (or provisional) visa for a settler.

Reporting Limitations

• Reports cannot provide numbers of settlers in specified locations for past years.Nor can reports show settlement patterns or trends for specified locations.

• Reports including numbers of settlers in specified locations may be inaccurate due to limitations in address data.This is particularly problematic for regional/rural locations.

• Settlers with an existing permanent (or provisional) visa may appear in different reporting categories over time if they are granted a subsequent permanent (or provisional) visa.

• Reports including numbers of settlers of 5 or fewer have been suppressed (indicated by an asterisk*) for client confidentiality.

• Reports including 'not stated','invalid' or 'not recorded'labels indicate that the data is unavailable.

Report Usage

• Please attribute DIAC as the data source when using SRF reports.
