The fate of a Sri Lankan asylum-seeker family from central Queensland will be decided on Wednesday, with a refugee council prepared to step in if they face deportation.
Lawyers for Tamil couple Nadesalingam and Priya, who have two Australian-born daughters, will appear before the Federal Circuit Court, months after the family was taken from its Biloela home and placed in detention.
"We are very worried about winning this appeal. We are preparing to stop a potential deportation through other means," a Tamil Refugee Council spokesman Aran Mylvaganam told AAP.
