Lier (Migration)

This matter concerned an application for review of a decision relating to a Student (Temporary) (Class TU) visa, Subclass 572 (Vocational Education and Training Sector). The applicant sought review of a decision, but the application for review was lodged with the Tribunal on 9 February 2018.

The primary legal issue before the Tribunal was whether the application for review had been made in accordance with the relevant legislative requirements, specifically concerning the timeframe for lodgement.

The Tribunal determined that as the application for review was received on 9 February 2018, it was not made within the time prescribed by the relevant legislation. Consequently, the Tribunal concluded that it lacked jurisdiction to consider the merits of the application. The Tribunal therefore made no decision on the substantive issues of the visa application itself.
