One option available to individuals who find themselves in these circumstances is to make an Administrative Appeals Tribunal (AAT) review application. This article presents a comprehensive guide on the process. We draw on the vast knowledge and experience of our immigration law team, headed by an Accredited Specialist in Immigration Law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Steps involved in making an AAT Review Application<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>An AAT application can be initiated in the event of a visa refusal or cancellation. The first step is to check whether your decision is reviewable by the AAT. This information can be found in the letter you receive from the Department of Home Affairs. Once confirmed, you&#8217;ll need to lodge the review application, pay the application fee, and adhere to the timeframes specified.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/immispecialist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/DALL\u00b7E-2023-12-10-19.46.31-Oil-painting-of-a-person-looking-confused-and-overwhelmed-by-a-large-complex-maze-symbolizing-the-complexities-of-Australian-immigration-law.-In-the.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-43\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Applying to the AAT: Criteria and Grounds for Review<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The AAT can only review applications in circumstances where the law permits. The criteria are highly dependent on the regulation under which the original visa decision was made. However, common grounds include administrative errors, discrepancies in facts, or circumstances where it is perceived that the decision-maker erred in their application of the law or acted beyond their jurisdiction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Filing an Application and Providing Evidence to the AAT<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>During the application process, applicants must provide a comprehensive account detailing the reasons they believe the original decision was flawed. It&#8217;s crucial to compile and submit any supporting evidence with your application promptly. If required, the AAT can be approached later to provide additional evidence. Remember, any documents used as evidence should be translated into English by a certified translator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">AAT Review Procedures and Timeline<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Upon receiving your application, the AAT typically initiates a review process involving two stages. The first involves a case assessment by an AAT Member, followed by an in-person hearing if necessary. The timeline varies significantly depending on the complexity of the case; however, it could typically range from a few months to over a year. By continuously checking the AAT&#8217;s processing times, you can maintain an estimate of when your application may be completed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Role of AAT Members<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Each AAT case is assigned to an AAT Member, who independently reviews and decides the application on its merits without being influenced by the initial decision. Their role involves evaluating the evidence, considering the testimony, and applying the law to arrive at their decision. The impartiality of AAT Members is integral to maintaining the integrity of the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Outcomes and Implications<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The AAT can either affirm, vary, set aside or remit the initial visa decision after review. If the application is successful, the AAT might change the decision or return it to the Department of Home Affairs for reconsideration. If unsuccessful, applicants can appeal to the Federal Court on a point of law or seek Ministerial intervention. It&#8217;s important to be cognizant of potential outcomes and tailor your future steps accordingly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>You can contact us by email at <a href=\"mailto:enquiry@parkcolawyers.com\">enquiry@parkcolawyers.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Enquire about a current immigration matter<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Contact <a href=\"https:\/\/immispecialist.com\/index.php\/contact\/\">Park &amp; Co Lawyers<\/a> with your decision date and question.
