Thanks for the info. Do they send the medicare number through email? or just mail the medicare card to your residence?

Is it 43 working days?

They conveyed to me the decision and the number over the phone the morning it was granted. Then they verified a few more details and told me they will be sending the card to me over by post.

Oh 43 days including weekends and holidays.

OMG, I have received my grant just now:

+ Residency: Lease agreement, utility bills to April 2020, bank statements (as I used credit card for daily spending) showing locations of purchases; internet bill, phone bills (both main and dependent applicants), enrollment form for kid, driver licence for both main and dependent, car rego.

The latest is that you can. But you must be employed for at least 12 months or more in the current job on 1st March 2020.

This condition is for job keeper payment not for early super release fund.

You casual worker can apply for early release of super fund and there is no requirement of 12 months employment as a casual for this. This requirement is for job keeper payment only. However, You can check ato website for further clarification.
