Frequently Asked Questions

  • Why was my Blue Card application denied or revoked?

    Blue Card applications can be denied or revoked for various reasons, such as criminal convictions, pending charges, or concerns about an applicant’s suitability to work with children. We can review your specific case to understand the reason for the decision.

  • What documents and evidence do I need for a Blue Card appeal?

    The specific documents and evidence required depend on your circumstances and the reasons for the denial or revocation. Typically, you’ll need to provide character references, criminal history checks, and any other relevant documentation. We can help you gather and prepare these pieces of evidence.

  • Can I continue working with children while my appeal is pending?

    In some cases, you may be able to work with children while your appeal is pending, but it depends on the circumstances and the decision of the relevant authority.

  • Can I appeal CASA's decisions, and how does the appeals process work?

    Yes, you can appeal CASA’s decisions. The appeals process involves submitting an application for review, presenting evidence, and participating in hearings. We can guide you through this process, represent you, and help build a strong case.

  • What evidence do I need to support my case in a CASA dispute?

    The evidence you’ll need depends on the specifics of your case. It may include flight records, maintenance logs, witness statements, and expert opinions. We’ll help you identify and gather the necessary evidence to strengthen your case.

  • How long does it take to resolve a CASA dispute?

    The timeline for resolving CASA disputes can vary widely, depending on factors like the complexity of your case and CASA’s workload.

  • Can I continue operating my aviation business while a CASA dispute is ongoing?

    Whether you can continue operating during a dispute depends on the nature of the regulatory action taken by CASA. In some cases, you may be allowed to operate under specific conditions.
