Types of visa appeals:

Usually, the visa refusal is appealed to the Administrative Review Tribunal (ART) at the first stage. If the ART is unsuccessful, your case may then be appealed at the Federal Circuit Court (FCC). In some cases, a visa refusal can be appealed directly to the Federal Court or High Court of Australia without involving the ART or the FCC.

The process of appealing to the courts can be complex and may need specialized services. Immigration lawyers at Sultan Legal recommend obtaining legal advice before lodging an appeal with Administrative Review Tribunal ART and Federal Circuit Court FCC.
