Dear INZ OIAs,
Hi Emma,

Thank you for your response.

To clarify, my information request is with regards to permanent residency visa applications, specifically for people who currently have a skilled migrant residence visa. Hence part 2 of my request refers to your interpretation - 'a)' and in addition - with a submission date prior to 3 January 2023.

In this second part of my request, I am trying to determine how many Permanent resident applications received by INZ, have not been decisioned and completed, and where they are currently at.

Yours sincerely,

Marié Willemse
