When you receive the notice of your visa cancellation you have 28 days to make representations and tell the Minister why your visa cancellation should be revoked. If you fail due to a mistake, change of mind, forgetfulness or because correctional staff or officers did not give your documents to the Immigration Department it may not be possible for the Department to revoke the visa cancellation. You will need to challenge the validity of the visa cancellation notice in Court. L I & A lawyers can help if you missed the 28 days deadline. We can provide legal advice and representation to challenge the validity of the cancellation notice in the Federal Court of Australia.
