Le (Migration)

The Administrative Appeals Tribunal considered an application for a Subclass 500 (Student) visa. The applicant sought review of a decision not to grant this visa.

The primary legal issue before the Tribunal was whether the applicant met the criteria for the grant of a Subclass 500 (Student) visa, specifically the genuine temporary entrant criterion and the requirement for current confirmation of enrolment.

The Tribunal found that there was no recent and cogent evidence before it to satisfy the requirement of current enrolment in a course of study, as stipulated by clause 500.211 of the relevant regulations. Consequently, the Tribunal could not be satisfied that the applicant met the visa criteria.

The Tribunal affirmed the decision not to grant the applicant the Subclass 500 (Student) visa.
