Yap (Migration)

The Administrative Appeals Tribunal considered an application for a Skilled (Provisional) (Class VC) visa, Subclass 485 (Temporary Graduate) visa, Post-Study Work stream. The applicant sought review of a decision concerning their eligibility for this visa.

The primary legal issue before the Tribunal was whether the applicant met the Australian study requirement as stipulated by clause 485.231(3) of Schedule 2 to the Migration Regulations.

The Tribunal found that the applicant satisfied the Australian study requirement under clause 485.231(3). Consequently, the Tribunal remitted the visa application back to the Minister for reconsideration, with the specific direction that the applicant had met this particular criterion.
