An alert only helps if you can act on it
The free alert is great for watching, but you still need to be ready to act the moment it fires, and cap reopenings can land at any hour, including while you're asleep or at work. Prepare your application with Tern instead: we hold it ready and submit it automatically the instant your cap reopens, so being asleep or at work never costs you the place.
The official status page can lag by 48 hours
Home Affairs publishes cap status on its website, but by its own admission, updates may not appear straight away, sometimes for up to two days. Tern checks ImmiAccount, the actual government lodgement system, every 2 hours, about 12 times a day. What you see below reflects what's really happening right now, not what's been published yet.
