Mr Parry was one of the 34 new appointments announced on Thursday by Attorney-General Christian Porter.
He will now be one of 16 part-time members on the tribunal and will serve in the position for seven years.
The AAT reviews government and department decisions as well as those made by organisations that fall under Commonwealth laws.
Mr Parry was forced in 2017 to resign from the Senate after he was found to be a dual-citizen by descent.
A level-three, part-time officer can earn between $30,470 a year working one day a week annually or $121,880 for four days a week.
Senior members can earn between $51,820 a year for working one day a week or up to $246,240 for four days.
It is unknown what Mr Parry's remuneration package is.
Former state government minister Matthew Groom was appointed to the Administrative Appeals Tribunal last year in a full-time, five-year appointment position.
Former Bass MHR Andrew Nikolic scored a similar position the year before but for seven years.
Both are senior members of the tribunal which allows them to earn one of two levels of remuneration.
One level pays a base salary of $275,000 and a total remuneration of $376,710 while the other pays $231,500 and a total remuneration of $317,110.
