Korada (Migration)

The Administrative Appeals Tribunal considered an application for a Subclass 500 (Student) visa. The applicant sought review of a decision concerning their eligibility for the visa.

The primary legal issue before the Tribunal was whether the applicant had provided adequate evidence of genuine access to sufficient funds to cover their living expenses and tuition fees, as required by criterion cl 500.214 of Schedule 2 to the Regulations.

The Tribunal, having received new evidence, was satisfied that the applicant met the financial capacity criterion. Consequently, the Tribunal remitted the application for reconsideration, directing that the applicant be found to meet the relevant criteria for the Subclass 500 visa.
