Recent INZ Update

Principal Immigration Adviser from Zealand Immigration

Very interesting update which came out today!
INZ is changing instructions so fast almost daily that even for professionals like us it is challenging to keep up with new policies and amendments to instructions to ensure correct advice to our clients!
Here is recent update from today:

The Government is streamlining the Skills Match Report process so employers can find out more easily if New Zealanders are available for jobs.

The Ministry of Social Development (MSD) has created lists of occupations and regions where there is a clear over or undersupply of New Zealanders on Job Seeker Support.

Undersupply of New Zealand job seekers

For occupations and regions where there is an undersupply of New Zealand job seekers, employers no longer need a Skills Match Report for roles paying below the national median wage, currently $25.50 an hour.

Roles that are undersupplied (rb.gy...)

Oversupply of New Zealand job seekers

For occupations and regions on the oversupply list, there are New Zealand job seekers on Job Seeker Support available. Employers can move straight to engaging with MSD to recruit New Zealand job seekers.

Roles that are oversupplied (rb.gy...)

This measure is temporary.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
