Immigration
The Challenge
Migration law is highly technical, very personal, and quite unforgiving of errors. It is a testament to the saying that “prevention is better than the cure”. As obtaining an Australian visa is usually just one part of a person’s broader plan when considering their future, it is often seen as “filling in a form” rather than an act with very real legal consequences. If a visa application is not handled properly, it can derail a person’s life for several years. This can happen because:
- A person applies for the wrong visa
- Is unaware of the “Section 48” bar, which prohibits a further onshore application for most types of visas where a visa application has been refused or visa cancelled
- The visa applicant submits misleading or deceptive information and is barred from further applications for several years.
The same is true of contesting visa refusals and cancellations which have strict time limits for lodging an appeal to the Administrative Appeals Tribunal and can be very complicated and time consuming.
