Summary

The Federal Court is buckling under a flood of immigration cases, with filings up more than fourfold since 2020. Lawyers blame AI-driven automation for rushed, flawed decisions—claiming officers are skipping critical reviews, leading to baffling denials like visitor visas for people whose family ties are overseas. The government insists AI is just a helper, not a decision-maker, and points to rising volumes as the real issue. But lawyers say the system is failing, pushing cases into an already strained court system—and argue it’s time to invest in real resources, not tech fixes, to ensure fair outcomes.
