26/06/2024 - Changes to AEWV criteria for bringing family
The Government has made further changes to the Accredited Employer Work Visa (AEWV) scheme. From today, AEWV holders in ANZSCO level 4 or 5 roles can no longer support work, student or visitor visa applications for their partners and children.
Partners and dependent children can still apply for their own work, student or visitor visas if they meet immigration instructions in their own right.
Today’s change does not affect:
- People that already hold visas as a partner or dependent child of an AEWV holder
- In progress applications from partners or dependent children of an AEWV holder received before 26 June. Those applications will be considered against the requirements that were in place on the date they applied
- AEWV holders in ANZSCO level 4 or 5 roles with a pathway to residency. This includes those in roles on the Green List or a Sector Agreement with a residence pathway, and those earning at least 1.5 times the relevant median wage (currently $31.61) threshold
- AEWV holders in ANZSCO level 1, 2 or 3 roles.
The Government has made this change to align with the broader suite of changes to the AEWV scheme earlier this year, and returns the settings to similar ones under the previous Essential Skills Work Visa.

10/11/2023 - Warning on recent immigration phone scams
Immigration New Zealand is aware of recent targeted phone scams coming from various New Zealand mobile numbers.
One example of these scams states the call is coming from 'The Immigration Bureau' saying there is a 'serious problem with your visa'. The call then prompts recipients to press different numbers for English or Chinese services.
Please be aware that these are not genuine calls from Immigration New Zealand. If you or someone you know receives this call or a similar one, report it to CERT NZ and do not engage further.
The Immigration New Zealand website has more information on recent scams, how to report them and how to protect yourself.
