Application for Review of Decision

You must complete fields or questions marked with *

Privacy and your personal information

We collect information about you to process your application and carry out the review under the Administrative Review Tribunal Act 2024 or the law under which the decision was made.

In making an application for review, you consent to the collection of personal information about you from the organisation or person who made the decision, any other party to the review, or a relevant person or body, where collecting the information is reasonably necessary to carry out the review.

We will give a copy of your application form to the organisation or person who made the decision and any other party to the review. We may also inform a person whose interests are affected by the decision about your application.

We will usually give a copy of any relevant document given to us by you, or anyone else, to the other parties to the review for the purposes of the review.

The information we collect may also be used for the purpose of another review involving you, if it is reasonably necessary to do so, or to improve our services.

Information available to the public

Limited information about certain cases before the Tribunal can be accessed using eCase Search on our website and may be made available to the public on request, unless a law or Tribunal order requires the information to be kept confidential. This information includes the names of the parties and any representatives, the type of application, dates of case events, a list of key documents lodged by the parties and the outcome of the application. For some cases, the Tribunal may, on request, give members of the public access to evidence (exhibits) given to the Tribunal for a hearing.

If the Tribunal makes a written decision with a statement of reasons, it will usually be made public and published on the internet, including on the AustLII website ( www.austlii.edu.au). For more information about the decisions we publish, see our Publication of Decisions Policy on our website.

Orders and laws restricting publication or disclosure

The Tribunal may make orders restricting disclosure or publication of information about you or others or evidence in a review, if it considers an order is appropriate in the circumstances. You can apply for an order by writing to us stating what information you want kept confidential and why.

In some cases, a law or the Tribunal’s Practice Directions require that certain information be kept confidential or that hearings be held in private. This includes information about certain Intelligence and Security proceedings, the identity of parties in certain Taxation, Protection visa related, Social Services or Child Support proceedings, and the identity of children in National Disability Insurance Scheme cases.

For more information, including how you can access information we hold about you and how to make privacy complaints, see our Privacy Policy on our website www.art.gov.au, or call us on 1800 228 333.

The Tribunal can only review a decision if the NDIA has reviewed it first.

However, if the NDIA has not completed its internal review within 90 days (or other specified period) of you asking for an internal review, the Tribunal may be able to review the decision without waiting for the NDIA.

Check the decision letter or email you received from the NDIA to find out if the decision can be reviewed by the Tribunal.

Have you received a decision? *

Please provide a copy of the Internal Review Request if you are able to do so

Reasons for the application

You must tell us briefly why you want to have the decision reviewed. For example, you may think the decision was wrong and a different decision should be made, the information you provided was not taken into account, or the law was not applied correctly.

We cannot start the review if you do not answer this question.

Why do you claim the decision is wrong? *

We ask you to tell us when you received the decision so we can check if your application has been lodged within the time limit.

Date of Decision *

What date was the decision received? *

Extension of time

Based on what you have entered as the date you received the decision, your application may be outside the time limit. However, you can ask us to accept your application even though it is late. This is called an application to extend the time to lodge your application.

You can apply for an extension of time using this online form. If you don't want to apply for an extension of time now, you can still lodge your application for a review and the Tribunal will contact you to explain what you may need to do.

Do you wish to apply for an extension of time? *

You have chosen not to apply for an extension of time. We will ask you to make an application for an extension of time at a later date in order to proceed with your application.
