Wang (Migration)

The Administrative Appeals Tribunal (AAT) considered an application for review by Ms. Wang concerning a Student (Temporary) (Class TU) visa. The central dispute revolved around whether Ms. Wang had lodged her application for review within the time prescribed by the relevant legislation.

The AAT was required to determine whether it had jurisdiction to hear Ms. Wang's application for review. This question turned on whether the application was lodged within the time limit stipulated by the governing legislation.

The Tribunal found that the application for review was received on 18 March 2024. As this date was outside the relevant time limit for lodging such an application, the Tribunal concluded that it had no jurisdiction to consider the matter. The Tribunal therefore held that it lacked the power to proceed with the review.
