Overview: AAT stands for Administrative Appeal Tribunal. Applicants can apply for the review of their visa cancellation or refusal to AAT. AAT is the independent body of the Department of Home Affairs. Moreover, it has the power to consider the applicant’s migration matter on merit grounds as well as can remit/affirm the original decision made by the DHA.
In case your visa has been refused, the AAT following the rules and regulations reconsiders your case, review the facts, documents and pieces of evidence provided based on laws relating to your specific immigration application. Consequently, they arrive at a new independent decision.
