When is the deadline for response to an art invitation for submissions and evidence in an on-the-papers review?
The catalogue records a 28 days period from The day the applicant is notified of the invitation given under s 367F(1). This draft page remains free only until its source, worked example and limits are reviewed.
In preparation
The existing catalogue does not yet have a registered adapter or source evidence for this exact question. It remains available as a public preparation page only.
Example pending review
A separately reviewed fixture is required before this question can become indexable. The page does not present an unreviewed output as an example.
Calculation basis and source
- Period
- 28 days
- Trigger
- The day the applicant is notified of the invitation given under s 367F(1)
- Counting
- The encoded calculator method must be independently documented before publication.
- Rollovers and holidays
- Holiday, closure and order treatment must be independently documented before publication.
This route remains in preparation until a pinpoint official source is recorded.
- None. The ART does not have the power to extend the response period.
- Corrected on verification: the citation now records the instrument that created this period. The on-the-papers scheme is new. It sits in Division 4A of Part 5 of the Migration Act (ss 367C to 367N), inserted by the Administrative Review Tribunal and Other Legislation Amendment Act 2026 (Cth) (Act No 3 of 2026), which commenced 18 May 2026; the response periods were prescribed by the Migration Amendment (Administrative Review of Student Visa Refusal Decisions) Regulations 2026 (Cth) (F2026L00640). The 28-day period for a s 367F invitation was confirmed on verification. Non-extendable and severe in effect: s 367M requires the ART to dismiss the application if the applicant does not respond within the response period. Section 367C confines the scheme to prescribed applications about temporary visas; the Government applied it first to student visa refusal decisions. Corrected on verification: the carve-outs are expressed by reference to public interest criteria 4001, 4003B, 4007, 4010, 4013, 4014, 4017, 4018 and 4020 and to special return criteria, so a refusal resting wholly or partly on one of those criteria is not reviewed on the papers. A protection decision can never be an on-the-papers application.
