Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the son's family reunification request was filed within the statutory time limit under the Foreign Nationals Act.
Decisione estratta
The request was late; after the relevant deadline had expired, no further timely reunification was available.
Motivazione estratta
For children over 12, the one-year period started on 2008-01-01 because the family relationship predated the Act. The first request in 2009 was therefore out of time, and the later request after the father's settlement permit did not revive a timely claim.
