"In all cases, evidence of financial means, employment or other ties that indicate a person intends to return home are important criteria," they said.

Lads would you ever fuck off and give the kids the visa. They've enough shit in their lives. Shameful.

I actually support proper process here, which is to return an improper application with an invitation to reapply. But this bit bothers me:

“… despite numerous attempts to engage, the department provided an appeals process that "guarantees the trip cannot proceed within the timeframe required".”

It’s hard to speed up a process if it relies in part (I assume) on external agencies. But kids in the middle of a genocide should be an exception. I know when a public body expedites one case, they can get annihilated on other cases that take the normal amount of time, but if ever there’s an exception to the rule surely this is it. They’re kids.
