Questão jurídica principal
Whether the settlement permit could be revoked because it had been obtained through false statements or concealment in connection with a sham marriage.
Decisão extraída
Yes. The established indicia showed from the outset that the marriage lacked genuine shared life and served immigration purposes, so the revocation ground was met.
Fundamentação extraída
The Federal Court deferred to the binding factual findings: separate bedrooms and finances, little knowledge of each other’s lives, few common activities, inconsistent statements about intimacy, and renewed separation. These indicia supported the conclusion that no genuine marital union existed.
