CaseChat Overview and Summary

The applicant, a citizen of China, sought review of a decision by the Refugee Tribunal. The applicant's application for review was lodged with the Tribunal on 3 June 2020.

The central legal issue before the Tribunal was whether it had jurisdiction to consider the applicant's review application, given that it was lodged after the statutory time limit.

The Tribunal determined that the application for review was not received within the time prescribed by the relevant legislation. Consequently, the Tribunal concluded that it lacked jurisdiction to hear the matter.

The Tribunal made no order as to costs and dismissed the application for review.
