Lim (Migration)

The Administrative Appeals Tribunal considered an application by a person seeking a Subclass 500 (Student) visa. The applicant's case concerned the provision of evidence of adequate health insurance.

The primary legal issue before the Tribunal was whether the applicant met the criteria for the Subclass 500 visa, specifically in relation to the requirement for adequate health insurance as stipulated by clause 500.215 of Schedule 2 to the Regulations.

The Tribunal determined that a hearing was not necessary, as it could find in favour of the applicant based on the existing material. Pursuant to section 360(2)(a) of the Migration Act 1958 (Cth), the Tribunal remitted the application for reconsideration. The direction was that the applicant meets the criteria for the visa, including clause 500.215 of Schedule 2 to the Regulations.
