Ali v Minister for Immigration, Citizenship, Migrant Services and Multicultural Affairs [2019] FCA 1166

Ali v Minister for Immigration, Citizenship, Migrant Services and Multicultural Affairs [2019] FCA 1166

The appeal was dismissed because Mr Ali did not identify any appellable error by the Federal Circuit Court judge. The Tribunal was not legally obliged to find that the matters relied on by Mr Ali amounted to compelling reasons for not applying the Schedule 3 criteria, and its reasons did not show that it failed to consider the domestic violence issue, dependency, the interests of the sponsor's child, the relationship, or any issue about Egypt that had been raised before it.
