Key legal question
Whether the settlement permit could be revoked for concealing essential facts in the permit proceedings.
Extracted holding
Yes. He knowingly concealed that he no longer intended to live with his parents and siblings but planned to start his own family.
Extracted reasoning
Under Art. 63(1)(a) in conjunction with Art. 62(a) AuG, revocation is justified where essential facts are falsely stated or withheld with the intent to obtain the permit. The decisive point is the situation at the time of the authority’s decision; the applicant knew family cohabitation was material and answered accordingly.
