There have been NO announcements from INZ about any changes to their circumstances. There is a whole lot of guesswork around because of a recent announcement about forthcoming changes to the SMC requirements, but NOBODY yet knows anything, apart from the announcement.
That's very interesting - a strong argument.While we are talking about this mushy mess, here's an opinion that I think is spot on - http://www.newshub.co.nz/home/politi...ot-skills.html
It's important to remember, while waiting through the processing of any application, with all the delay and disruption that is happening at the moment, that the changes and difficulties are because of GOVERNMENT, POLITICAL, decisions. INZ has not made the changes, but is just the government office which has to carry out the processing according to the rules they are being given. Your wait is not the fault of your CO and the other officials.
Hi everyone, It will be great if any if you could suggest some credible sources to read more about the upcoming SMC changes. I hear that the point allocation system is changing, so will the total cut off still be 160? Any reliable pice of information on when those changes are coming in and how they will play out will be really helpful. I have already read the posts on the INZ website, but is there some other official government channel for press releases that I am missing out?
Thanks in advance!

hello everyone, i am a residence class visa holder and i am planning to sponsor my wife for partnership based work visa . has there been any changes to residents supporting their partners visa ? i am confused with all these changes. any answer is appreciated. Thank you
No mention of any changes to partners of any kind of visa holders EXCEPT Essential Skills. So your wife will be fine as long as you guys meet the other requirements.
Source - Called up INZ to ask about this exact same issue since my wife is on a work visa which will (probably) have to be renewed next year.
