最近，澳大利亚联邦裁判法院刚刚驳回了一个海外学生对 880 签证 ( 技术移民 ) 申请被拒绝的上诉。该学生签证被拒绝的原因是他通过技术评估的课程不是一个 CRICOS( 澳大 利亚海外学生学习注册登记课程 The Commonwealth Register of Institutions and Courses for Overseas Student) 登记的课程。

澳大利亚政府在当时通过了一个移民法的修改草案。该草案规定在” 做出签证审理意见的时候 (a time of decision)” 要求根据澳大利亚学历申请的技术评估的课程必须是有 CRICOS 注册的。而该学生的签证申请是在这个草案施行之前递交的。

在此草案颁布之前，有大量的学生申请了非 CRICOS 注册的课程，在联邦裁判法院的决定做出之后，是否会有针对该裁决的上诉，我们拭目以待。

Liana Allan 将为广大学生和学生家长更新该案的最新信息。

该案的详细情况：

In an important decision the Federal Magistrates Court has dismissed an appeal by a student against a decision to refuse him a Subclass 880 visa because the course he relied upon for his skills assessment was not CRICOS registered. An amendment to the Migration Regulations, made after the student had applied for a Subclass 880 visa, introduced “a time of decision” requirement that where a skills assessment was based on an Australian qualification such qualification had to be CRICOS registered.  A large number of students undertook such courses before the amendment and it will be interesting to see if an appeal is lodged against the ruling
