APPLICATION FOR REVIEW

1. This is an application for review of a decision made by a delegate of the Minister for Immigration on 31 August 2017 to refuse to grant the visa applicant a Skilled (Provisional) (Class VC) Subclass 485 visa under the Migration Act 1958 (the Act).

2. At the hearing on 22 June 2018 the Tribunal made an oral decision and gave an oral statement of decision and reasons. The following is the written record of those reasons.

   STATEMENT OF DECISION AND REASONS

   Based on the evidence before me, including your oral evidence given today, I am not satisfied that when the application was made it was accompanied by evidence that you had applied to the relevant assessing authority for an assessment of your skills for your nominated skilled occupation.  And for that reason I find that you do not meet the requirements of clause 485.223 and I must affirm the decision made by the delegate.

   DECISION

3. The Tribunal affirms the decision under review.
