Your Right to Review

What is the Administrative Review Tribunal?

The Administrative Review Tribunal (ART) β€” previously the Migration and Refugee Division of the AAT β€” is an independent body that reviews decisions made by the Department of Home Affairs. If your visa has been refused or cancelled, you may have the right to apply to the ART for a merits review.

A merits review means the ART looks at your case fresh β€” they can consider new evidence and make a new decision. This is a genuine second chance, not just a procedural review.

⏰ Critical: You typically have only 21 days from the date of the decision letter to lodge an ART appeal. Do not wait.

What Can Be Appealed?

Student visa refusals
Partner visa refusals
Skilled visa refusals
Visa cancellations (character, non-compliance)
Employer nomination refusals
Sponsorship refusals
Certain protection visa decisions
