Mauriello (Migration)

The Administrative Appeals Tribunal (AAT) considered an application for review by Mr Mauriello concerning a Student (Temporary) (Class TU) visa, subclass 500. The central dispute revolved around whether the Tribunal had jurisdiction to hear Mr Mauriello's application, which had been lodged after the prescribed time limit.

The primary legal issue before the Tribunal was whether it possessed jurisdiction to consider Mr Mauriello's application for review, given that it was received by the Tribunal on 8 May 2019, after the statutory deadline for lodging such applications had passed.

The Tribunal determined that the application for review was not made in accordance with the relevant legislative requirements because it was received by the Tribunal after the expiry of the time limit. Consequently, the Tribunal concluded that it lacked jurisdiction to hear the matter. The Tribunal therefore made no order in relation to the merits of the application.
