QCAT is able to review a decision that has been made about your blue card application by the commission. This includes:
- issuing a negative notice
- cancelling a positive notice and substituting with a negative notice
- cancelling a positive notice which was suspended
- suspending a positive notice because you had been charged with a disqualifying offence, where you claim that you are not the person charged with the offence.
If you feel the decision is wrong you can apply for a review of the decision. Generally you need to apply to QCAT for a review of a decision within 28 days of you being notified of the decision.
If you have not received reasons for the decision you have 28 days to apply to QCAT from the day the reasons are given to you or 28 days from when you asked for the reasons, whichever is earliest. There are exceptions to the 28 day rule so check your QCAT information notice for information about the time limit that applies in your case.
