LIANG (Migration)

The Administrative Appeals Tribunal considered an application by Mr Liang for a review of a decision concerning his Working Holiday (Temporary) (Class TZ) visa, Subclass 417. The primary dispute revolved around whether Mr Liang met the health criterion for the visa.

The Tribunal was required to determine if Mr Liang satisfied the health requirements for a Subclass 417 visa, specifically in light of a cleared medical assessment provided during the review process.

The Tribunal found that a hearing was not necessary as it could determine the matter based on the material before it, pursuant to section 360(2)(a) of the Migration Act 1958 (Cth). Consequently, the Tribunal remitted the application for reconsideration with a direction that Mr Liang meets the health criteria as specified in clause 417.221(2)(b) of Schedule 2 to the Migration Regulations 1994 (Cth).
