The request was successful.

From: A KS

Dear Ministry of Business, Innovation & Employment,

Could you please give me the information about

1:- Count of Parents Residency Visa EOIs which have been submitted before 15 September 2018 and are still in the pool( queue) . Please provide the count of persons too.

2:- Count of Parents Residency Visa EOI's which have been withdrawn between 8th Oct 2019 and now. Please provide the count of persons too.

I have asked this information in my previous OIA request but it seems that response for (Point 2) was not fully correct and there has been no reply on that OIA https://fyi.org.nz/request/13864-status-...

Yours faithfully,

A KS
