Tçnâ koe,

Thank you for contacting the Department of Internal Affairs.  You have
contacted us during the annual legislative closedown period of public
service OIA processing, which spans 24 December 2023 to 15 January 2024
(inclusive). 

During this period Official Information Act processing is suspended.

If you are making a new Official Information Act (OIA) request for
information held by the Department, we will respond to you after OIA
processing resumes on Tuesday the 16th January 2024.  You can check the
time limit for the Department’s response in the [1]Ombudsman’s OIA
Response Calculator. 

If you are contacting the Department about information that is held by a
different agency; a Minister; a District Health Board or a Local
Authority, you will receive your answer up to two weeks sooner if you
[2]request the information from them directly.  If you will be contacting
them directly, please take a moment to let us know that you are
withdrawing your request to the Department.

Nâku noa, nâ

Tçnâ koe Sir/Madam

Thank you for your OIA request to the Department of Internal Affairs. Your reference number is OIA2324-0484.

We value your engagement and acknowledge your right to request information under the OIA. Our team is committed to providing transparency and accountability to the public.

In order to better assist, could you please confirm what you are hoping to get from this request?

If you are seeking information about processing timeframes for a specific application, I must advise that the Department of Internal Affairs (the Department) receive a number of Citizenship data requests which become quickly outdated, as the data is constantly changing.

If you have applied for Citizenship within the past twelve months, the processing timeframes can be found here https://www.govt.nz/browse/passports-cit...

As noted on our website, once the Department has looked over the application, you will be contacted if any additional information is required.

Your request includes information specific to a country or countries. I must advise that data counts between 1-4 are masked with <5 to help prevent identification of individuals.

Please confirm by 19 January 2024 whether you wish for the Department to proceed with your request or whether you would like someone from the Department to contact you regarding your OIA request. If you would like someone to contact you, please send your contact details to [email address]. Please DO NOT REPLY TO THIS RESPONSE WITH YOUR CONTACT NUMBER as it will become public on the FYI website.

If you choose to continue with the OIA request, the Department will provide a response as soon as practicable, and within twenty working days. The 20th working day is 13 February 2024.

Please note that, in cases where the Department’s response provides information that is identified to be of general public interest, the response may also be published on the Department of Internal Affairs website. If the Department publishes its response to your OIA request, all personal information, including your name and contact details, will be removed.
