Sheenh (Migration)

The Administrative Appeals Tribunal considered the application of Sheenh for a Student (Temporary) (Class TU) visa, specifically Subclass 572 Vocational Education and Training Sector. The core of the dispute concerned whether Sheenh met the genuine temporary entrant requirements for the visa.

The Tribunal was required to determine if Sheenh had provided a valid certificate of enrolment or a valid letter of enrolment, and whether Sheenh met the criteria for any remaining subclasses of the Class TU visa. Specifically, the Tribunal considered whether Sheenh was supported by a relevant minister as required by clause 576.229, or if the application was made on the basis of being a student guardian under subclass 580.

The Tribunal found that there was no evidence that Sheenh met the criteria for the remaining subclasses. Sheenh was not supported by the relevant minister, nor had the application been made on the basis of being a student guardian, which Sheenh had confirmed. Consequently, the Tribunal concluded that the decision under review should be affirmed. The Tribunal affirmed the decision under review.
