Increase in MIQ costs for temporary visa holders - are you impacted?
Hi Neighbours,
MBIE has just announced that from 25 March 2021, MIQ costs for temporary entry visa class holders will increase from $3100 to $5520.
Temporary visa holders (including those on visitor visas, student visas, work visas and limited visas) who have already booked MIQ spots and are due to enter on/after 25 March will also be expected to pay by the new standards.
Are you impacted by this change? What are your thoughts on this change? Feel free to get in touch with me to share your views:

Consultation: Yellow lines on Balmain Rd, near Kauri Point Domain
Auckland Transport is proposing to install no-stopping yellow lines at the end of Balmain Road (including at the entrance to Kauri Point Domain), to address concerns from residents regarding parked vehicles blocking access to the road.
The changes will result in the removal of 14 on-street parking spaces.
Consultation is now open until Friday 30 April.
