Llige (Migration)

The Administrative Appeals Tribunal considered an application for a Partner (Temporary) (Class UK) visa, Subclass 820, made by the applicant. The dispute concerned whether the applicant had satisfied a particular regulatory requirement for the visa.

The primary legal issue before the Tribunal was whether the applicant had met the criteria under regulation 2.03AA(2) of the Migration Regulations 1994. Specifically, the Tribunal had to determine if the applicant had provided a statement from an appropriate authority as required by that regulation.

The Tribunal found that the applicant had indeed provided a statement from an appropriate authority. This satisfied the requirement of regulation 2.03AA(2)(a). Consequently, the Tribunal remitted the application for reconsideration, directing that the applicant be taken to have met the criteria under regulation 2.03AA(2) for the Subclass 820 visa.
