The Administrative Appeals Tribunal considered the applications of two individuals for Student (Temporary) (Class TU) visas, subclass 500. The primary dispute concerned whether the secondary applicant met the criteria for a genuine temporary entrant as a student, specifically in relation to their enrolment in a registered course.

The Tribunal was required to determine if the secondary applicant satisfied the requirements for the grant of a Student visa, particularly the genuine temporary entrant criterion. This involved assessing the applicant's intentions and circumstances in relation to their proposed study in Australia.

The Tribunal affirmed the decisions not to grant the applicants' visas. The reasoning, as indicated by the concluding statement, was that the criteria for the grant of a Student visa were not met by the secondary applicant. Consequently, the decision in relation to the secondary applicant's review was also affirmed.
