Nalla (Migration)

The Administrative Appeals Tribunal considered an application for a Subclass 500 (Student) visa. The applicant, Nalla, sought review of a decision concerning their eligibility for the visa, specifically in relation to health clearance requirements.

The primary legal issue before the Tribunal was whether the applicant met the health criteria stipulated in cl.500.217 of Schedule 2 to the *Migration Regulations 1994* (Cth). This involved assessing the adequacy of the medical assessment provided by the applicant.

The Tribunal's decision was influenced by new evidence received during the review process. Based on this updated information, the Tribunal was satisfied that the applicant met the relevant health criterion. Consequently, the Tribunal remitted the application for reconsideration by the relevant decision-maker, with a direction that the applicant be found to meet the specified criterion.
