CaseChat Overview and Summary

The applicant, identified only as "Refugee" in the case reference 1826869, sought a review of a decision. The respondent is not explicitly named but the matter was before the Refugee Tribunal. The dispute concerned the timeliness of the applicant's application for review.

The central legal issue before the Tribunal was whether it possessed jurisdiction to hear the applicant's case, given the date on which the application for review was lodged. This required an assessment of whether the application was made in accordance with the relevant legislative provisions governing the lodgement of review applications.

The Tribunal determined that the application for review was received on 11 September 2018. It found that this date meant the application was not made in accordance with the relevant legislation. Consequently, the Tribunal concluded that it lacked jurisdiction to consider the matter.

The Tribunal ordered that it does not have jurisdiction in this matter.
