10942 (2024). Ricardo Menéndez March to the Minister of Immigration: How many, if any, applications have been received for Partner of a Worker Visitor Visas for each quarter since January 2021, broken down by nationality?
Hon Erica Stanford: I am advised that this information is not available as requested. Partner of a Worker Visitor Visas are recorded in Immigration New Zealand's (INZ) Application Management System (AMS) under the visitor visa category 'Partners and dependent children of student or work visa holders'. To obtain the information would require substantial collation, as INZ would need to manually review all applications approved under this category.
