The applicant, a citizen of the Philippines, sought judicial review of a visa officer's decision refusing his application for a temporary work permit as a steelworker.
The officer found that the applicant failed to demonstrate he met the requirements of the position due to a lack of evidence of language proficiency and insufficient employment documentation.
The Federal Court held that the officer's decision was reasonable, noting that the onus is on the applicant to satisfy the officer of their qualifications.
The application for judicial review was dismissed.
