Kwon (Migration)

The Administrative Appeals Tribunal (AAT) considered an application for review concerning a Subclass 407 (Training) visa. The applicant, identified as Kwon, did not appear at the hearing for their application.

The primary legal issue before the Tribunal was whether to confirm the dismissal of the application for review, given the applicant's failure to appear and the subsequent lack of a reinstatement application.

The Tribunal's reasoning was based on the procedural requirements of the AAT Act. As the applicant did not lodge an application for reinstatement within the prescribed 14-day period following the dismissal, the Tribunal was mandated to confirm the decision to dismiss the application. Consequently, the decisions under review were taken to be affirmed. The Tribunal confirmed the decision to dismiss the application.
