Visa subclass stream Tourist
The applicant's claims
The applicant has applied for the grant of a Visitor visa (subclass 600) to visit Australia for a
temporary stay.
Information and evidence considered
I am a delegated decision maker under section 65 of the Migration Act 1958. In reaching my
decision, I have considered the following:
● relevant legislation contained in the Migration Act and Migration Regulations 1994
● information contained in the Department's Procedural Instructions
● documents and information provided by the applicant(s)
● relevant information held on Departmental files.
Findings
On the basis of all the information available to me, including the documents and information
the applicant provided, I find that the criteria for the grant of a Visitor (Tourist) visa in the
Tourist stream are not satisfied.
Reasons
I have assessed the application and the reasons for my decision are detailed below.
An application for a Visitor (Tourist) visa in the Tourist stream has been made by the
applicant.

A visa cannot be granted unless the relevant criteria specified in the Migration Act and the
Migration Regulations are satisfied.
In this case, I am not satisfied that clause 600.211 in Schedule 2 of the Migration
Regulations is satisfied. This clause provides that:
600.211
The applicant genuinely intends to stay temporarily in Australia for the purpose for which the visa is
granted, having regard to:
(a) whether the applicant has complied substantially with the conditions to which the last
substantive visa, or any subsequent bridging visa, held by the applicant was subject; and
(b) whether the applicant intends to comply with the conditions to which the Subclass 600
visa would be subject; and
(c) any other relevant matter.
Under policy when considering “any other relevant matter”, decision makers may take
into account a wide range of considerations to determine whether an applicant genuinely
intends a temporary stay in Australia. This may include, but is not limited to, the applicant’s
employment, economic and family circumstances, their credibility, the claimed purpose and
period of stay, and the applicant’s previous travel history.
My decision is based on the following factors
My decision is based on the factor that the applicant has applied for a visitor visa to Australia.
In assessing the criteria for visitor visa, I have taken into account the information provided in
their application relating to their personal circumstances, commitments and their incentives to
return.
I find that the information provided is not sufficient to satisfy me of their genuine temporary
stay intention and that the applicant has not demonstrated they have sufficiently strong
personal, economic, financial, family, employment or other commitments that would be an
incentive for them to depart Australia at the end of their proposed visit.
Given the above considerations I am not satisfied that the applicant meets criteria 600.211
and must therefore refuse their application.
After considering the information provided, I am not satisfied that the applicant genuinely
intends to stay temporarily in Australia for the purposes set out above.
Therefore, I am not satisfied that the applicant meets the relevant criteria in clause 600.211
in Schedule 2 of the Migration Regulations.
Decision
As clause 600.211 is not satisfied, I find the criteria for the grant of a Visitor (Tourist) visa in
the Tourist stream are not satisfied. Therefore, I refuse the application by the applicant for a
Visitor (Tourist) visa in the Tourist stream.
