paper based applications - Christchurch
Jamie made this Official Information request to Department of Internal Affairs
The request was partially successful.
From: Jamie
Dear Department of Internal Affairs,
1- Wish to know the following data for paper-based citizenship applications made in Christchurch only for the said these months:
July 2021 August 2021 September 2021 and October 2021.
Total applications - Processed - Yet to be processed - Approved.
2- in your previous response you have given me the information related to sep 2021 and october 2021 for christchurch based paper applications, none of the application is yet processed, thats so strange, means all of the applications failed the automatic checks? or you havent even seen those applications yet? and yet you are processing applications submitted in 2022, thats is so unfair. why such a delay in processing these applications? what are you doing to improve your system? when would you start processing the paper based applications submitted in christchurch in these months, please improve your systems and process oldest applications first.
Yours faithfully,
Jamie

This email is to notify you that your two latest Official Information Act
1982 (Act) requests (2223-0243 and 2223-0249) are being combined into one
request. This is because both requests are on the same topic, so we have
taken your second request to be an amendment, in the way of additional
information being requested, to your initial request.
I note any clarification or amendment of a request is considered to be a
new request for the purpose of calculating the maximum statutory timeframe
for response – see section 15(1AA) of the Act. The reference number of
2223 0243 and due date of 20 October 2022 therefore stands.
