Bhatti (Migration)

The Administrative Appeals Tribunal (AAT) considered an application for review by Mr Bhatti concerning a Temporary Business Entry (Class UC) visa, subclass 457 (Temporary Work (Skilled)). The application was made in relation to a decision concerning the sponsorship of an approved sponsor and the nomination of an occupation.

The primary legal issue before the Tribunal was whether it had jurisdiction to review the delegate's decision. This turned on whether the decision was one that could be reviewed under Parts 5 or 7 of the relevant Act.

The Tribunal reasoned that the delegate's decision was not a reviewable decision under the specified Parts of the Act. Consequently, the application for review was not validly made, and the Tribunal lacked jurisdiction to hear the matter.

The Tribunal therefore concluded that it did not have jurisdiction in this matter.
