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 Procedures Advice Manual 3
● 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

An application for a Visitor (Tourist) visa in the Tourist stream has been made by the

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.

Current Australian Government policy, specifically PAM3: GenGuide H, Visitor visas, Visa
application related procedures, provides guidance to visa decision makers in assessing
whether or not an applicant meets regulation 600.211, the genuine temporary stay
requirement.
Under policy, in establishing whether 600.211 (c) is satisfied, it is relevant to consider an
applicant’s personal circumstances. An applicant’s economic and employment circumstances
in their home country need to constitute strong incentives for the applicant to return to their
home country at the end of the proposed visit, in order to satisfy the genuine temporary stay
requirement.
In assessing these criteria I have taken into account the information provided in your visa
application form, as well as supporting documents relating to your personal and financial
circumstances in your home country.
You stated in your application that you intend to travel to Australia as a visitor.

You have provided bank statements as evidence of your financial capacity. I have given
limited weight to these documents as evidence of your financial standing, as on its own
and without evidence of the source of your funds it does not demonstrate strong financial
incentive to return after your visit to Australia.

I find that you have not demonstrated sufficiently strong financial, personal, employment or
other commitments in your home country that would be an incentive for you to return after
your visit.

I am not satisfied that you genuinely intend to stay temporarily in Australia for the purpose
you have stated, and therefore find that you do not satisfy Subclause 600.211 of the
Migration Regulations 1994.

My decision is based on the following factors

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.

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.
