1813906 (Refugee)

The applicant sought review of a decision concerning a protection visa. The application for review was lodged with the Tribunal on 14 May 2018.

The primary legal issue before the Tribunal was whether it had jurisdiction to consider the application for review, given that it was lodged outside the prescribed time limit.

The Tribunal Member, Nathan Goetz, determined that the application for review was not made in accordance with the relevant legislative requirements because it was received by the Tribunal on 14 May 2018, which was after the statutory deadline. Consequently, the Tribunal lacked jurisdiction to hear the matter.

The Tribunal made no orders as it determined it did not have jurisdiction.
