Our Expertise in Appeals and Reviews

At Jade Immigration Lawyers, we provide expert legal support for Visa Refusal and Cancellation Australia, focusing on appeals and reviews to challenge adverse decisions through the Administrative Review Tribunal (ART) and other avenues.


1. Administrative Review Tribunal (ART) Appeals

The ART is an independent body that reviews decisions made by the Department of Home Affairs. Our services include:

  • Preparing and lodging appeals to the ART.
  • Gathering and organising evidence to support your case.
  • Drafting strong legal submissions.
  • Representing you during ART hearings to advocate effectively on your behalf.

2. Merits Review

The ART conducts a merits review, reassessing your case based on the facts and circumstances at the time of the review. We focus on:

  • Presenting new evidence or developments that support your claim.
  • Addressing weaknesses in the original decision to strengthen your position.
  • Ensuring your case is argued clearly and persuasively.

3. Judicial Review

Judicial reviews focus on identifying legal errors or breaches of procedural fairness in the decision-making process, rather than reassessing the merits of your case. Our support includes:

  • Identifying errors of law or procedural unfairness in the ART decision.
  • Preparing detailed applications and legal arguments.
  • Representing you in the Federal Court of Australia for a judicial review.

4. Ministerial Discretion Appeals

When no further appeals are available, a request for ministerial intervention offers a final chance for relief. Our team prepares compelling submissions, focusing on:

  • Emphasising the impact of a visa refusal or cancellation on your future.
