Eslate (Migration)

The Administrative Appeals Tribunal considered an application for a Regional Employer Nomination (Permanent) visa (Subclass 187). The applicant's nominator had initially had their application refused, but this decision was subsequently overturned by the Tribunal.

The primary legal issue before the Tribunal was whether the applicant met the criteria for the Subclass 187 visa, specifically criterion cl.187.223 of Schedule 2 to the Regulations.

The Tribunal found that the criterion was met and, accordingly, remitted the application for reconsideration. The Tribunal directed that the applicant be taken to meet the specified criterion.
