STATEMENT OF DECISION AND REASONS

APPLICATION FOR REVIEW

  1. This is an application for review of a decision made by a delegate of the Minister for Immigration to refuse to grant the applicant a Student (Temporary) (Class TU) visa under s.65 of the Migration Act 1958 (the Act). The applicant applied for the visa on 8 November 2017. The delegate refused to grant the visa on 19 February 2018.

  2. The delegate made the decision on the basis that evidence of adequate arrangements in Australia for health insurance during the period of the applicant’s intended stay was not provided as required to satisfy a criterion for the grant of the visa under the Migration Regulations 1994 (the Regulations).

  3. On 14 May 2018 the Tribunal received Confirmation of Health Cover in the name of the applicant for the period 21 February 2018 to 14 September 2019. In light of the new evidence received, the Tribunal is satisfied that the criterion is met and has concluded that the matter should be remitted for reconsideration.
