Request to know the process and formal procedure of updating Accredited Employer information with Immigration New Zealand
Rachel made this Official Information request to Ministry of Business, Innovation & Employment
The request was successful.
From: Rachel
Dear Ministry of Business, Innovation & Employment,
I am a New Zealand Residence Visa holder and am able to make this request as per your requirements - I can provide evidence of this upon request.
I request the recorded process and procedures from Immigration New Zealand's operation Manual, Staff training records, System records and any other resource to which Immigration Officers refer (including memos and emails), re the requirement to update details of Accredited employers.
As per the Immigration New Zealand (INZ) website and Accredited Employer materials/guides, Accredited Employers are required to update INZ whenever there is a change to their business including key people changes. The Employer Line phone number is recorded on the website for this purpose, however the staff on the line do not know how to complete the update process.
Included in the above request is the expected timeframe for the changes to be made to the Enhanced online system to allow updated information to be able to be entered into the Employer Accreditation.
Yours faithfully,
Rachel
