21.01.2022 Supreme Court confirms $1 million inheritance in NSW Trustee and Guardian v Hirsch [2013] NSWSC 1397. The case concerned a Will written without the assistance of a lawyer. The executor of the Will contended that the terms of the Will were so uncertain that it was not clear whether the Willmaker intended to give anything to our client. The court accepted that it was clear that our client was to receive the property. Among other things, the court determined that the Willmaker... feared the gift she intended to make under the Will may be taken from our client by another person or a member of that persons family. A condition of the will ensured that our client was not able to give any part of the property to the person or a member of that persons family.

18.01.2022 David thinks the Government 2nd attempt at the 457 occupations caveat (now also apply to 186) may not necessarily be valid as well.

17.01.2022 There have been many discussion about the recent policy change made by the Department of Immigration and Border Protection concerning the assessment of applications in the 457 program. One of the significant change that has caught many peoples attention and concern is the issue of the so-called ending of self-sponsor under the 457 program. On 21 November 2015, the Department added the following policy statement to the 457 visa Procedural Advice Manual 3 (PAM3): [ 742 more words. ] http://proactivelegal.com.au/457-program-not-intended-for-/

12.01.2022 On 24 September 2013, the Federal Circuit Court has delivered a judgement (Kim v Minister for Immigration & Anor [2013] FCCA 1433) concerning defective notification of migration decision finding against the Minister for Immigration and Border Protection and his Department. The court found that where an applicant provides two addresses in their visa application, any correspondence from the Department of Immigration and Border Protection (DIBP) must be sent to both addresses ...but not only one. There have been many court decisions dealing with defective notification over the years. If you missed your opportunity to apply to the Migration Review Tribunal (MRT) or Refugee Review Tribunal (RRT) for review a decision to refuse you a visa in the past because you did not receive notification of a decision, please contact us as we may be able to help.
