CaseChat Overview and Summary

The applicant sought review of a decision concerning a bridging visa, following four previous review applications for a protection visa refusal. The delegate's decision regarding the protection visa had already been the subject of a valid review by the Tribunal.

The primary legal issue before the Tribunal was whether it possessed jurisdiction to review the delegate's decision concerning the bridging visa, given that the underlying protection visa decision had already been reviewed.

The Tribunal reasoned that once a decision has been the subject of a valid review by the Tribunal, it ceases to be a reviewable decision. Consequently, the Tribunal's jurisdiction in relation to that specific decision is extinguished.

Accordingly, the Tribunal determined that it did not have jurisdiction in this matter.
