Protection Visas

Detailed advice and representation through protection visa applications, refusals and tribunal review, including advice on judicial review.

Protection visas are one of the most complex visa applications in immigration law. An applicant for a protection visa needs to be able to prove to the Department of Home Affairs that they are a refugee or are owed complementary protection.

How we can assist

Initial applications

Advice on your circumstances and the protection visa application process, including assistance with preparing your application, statement, supporting evidence and submissions, and responding to requests from the Department of Home Affairs.

Protection visa refusals

If your application has been refused, we can review the reasons for the decision, advise on any available review options and explain the next steps relevant to your matter.

Administrative Review Tribunal

Where tribunal review is available, we can assist with preparing your review application, evidence and submissions, preparing you for a hearing and representing you before the Administrative Review Tribunal.

Advice on judicial review

We can assess whether there may be grounds to seek judicial review and explain the process, potential costs and next steps. Judicial review concerns legal error, rather than a fresh assessment of the merits of your protection claims.

A considered, personal approach

Sai Priya has extensive experience in protection visa matters and representing clients before the Department of Home Affairs, the Tribunal and in judicial review proceedings. We will discuss the assistance you need and confirm the scope of our work and fees before you decide to proceed.
