We are more than happy to speak with you for clear guidance.
Our starting point is to ascertain why your application was refused based on reasons
provided in the Department’s decision records. It is crucial to review and analyse the
refusal decision to gauge prospects of the outcome of a review application with the
Administrative Appeals Tribunal (AAT) if the decision can be reviewed by the AAT.
Here are some basic steps that you need to take if a refusal decision is received:
- Read the decision records carefully
- Confirm whether the refusal decision can be reviewed by the AAT
- Diarise the due date to lodge the AAT application by
- Be aware of the period by when you need to leave Australia if applicable
- Contact practitioners for advice as soon as practical
