Teng (Migration)

The applicant, Teng, sought judicial review of a decision by the Administrative Appeals Tribunal (AAT) concerning her application for a Visitor (Class FA) visa, subclass 600. The AAT had made a decision under review, which was the subject of this application.

The central legal issue before the court was whether the AAT had erred in its assessment of the applicant's compliance with public interest criterion (PIC) 4001, which relates to the character test. The applicant had provided a police clearance certificate as part of her application.

The court found that the Tribunal was satisfied that the applicant passed the character test, as evidenced by the provision of her police clearance certificate. The court therefore remitted the decision under review.
