As an Aussie who has lived overseas for decades even the SMS option is not available to me as it requires you to have an Australian phone number.
You can't install the myGov Code Generator app without an Australian phone number either.
I haven't tried the myGovId app, which seems the best bet, as I'm scared it will fail and block what access I have to myGov now.
Also, for a long time the only way to change your myGov email was to set up a new myGov account. Ditto if you had the Code Generator app and lost your phone - though with the myGovId app you now have another avenue for recovery - provided of course that it doesn't crash, accepts your scanned documents and you actually have enough such documents to keep it happy.
