1. This is an application for review of decisions made by a delegate of the Minister for Immigration on 27 February 2018 to refuse to grant the visa applicants  Employer Nomination (Permanent) Subclass 186 visas under the Migration Act 1958 (the Act).

2. On 14 December 2020 the Tribunal dismissed the application under s.362B(1A)(b) of the Act as the review applicants did not appear before it to give evidence and present arguments at the time and date of the scheduled hearing.

3. The review applicants were notified of the dismissal decision and given a copy of a written statement setting out the decision and the reasons for the decision, in accordance with s.362C(5). The review applicants were advised that reinstatement of the application could be sought within 14 days of receiving the dismissal statement and that a failure to apply for reinstatement within the 14 day period would result in confirmation of the dismissal decision.

4. As the review applicants did not apply for reinstatement of the application within the 14 days period, the Tribunal must confirm the decision to dismiss the application. In these circumstances, the decisions under review are taken to be affirmed.
