Dear John Luke

 

Immigration New Zealand is preparing the response to your Official
Information Act request summarised below. 

 

Can you please provide access to all training materials provided to
Business Migration Team staff members within Immigration New Zealand with
specific reference to how they are trained to assess Investor residence
visa and Investor residence (Post AIP- transfer of fund) visa
applications. In particular, how the document related to assess transfer
of fund from China. Any documents that assist the Business Migration Team

We seek clarification on the point I have highlighted in yellow above. 
There are multiple interpretations of the request for “directions from
management”.  In light of this ambiguity can you please clarify the
information you are seeking so we can provide an appropriate response.

Dear Andrew Newbery,

Thank you for your reply.

My understanding of "directions from management" is any formal direction from management which helps in guiding and leading the Immigration Officer's to approved transfer of fund (in particular from China) after AIP. I am understand how QDII works and I have requested the OIA information from past, so I am more keen to know any non-QDII approvals.

Yours sincerely,

john luke
