Thank you for your email of 22 February 2024 to the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment
requesting, under the Official Information Act 1982 (OIA), the following:
I would like to request 1.the training material for staff to process Permanent Resident Visa
online applications. 2.the workflow for the online PRV application.
On 19 March 2024, MBIE sent you a letter noting that we had decided to extend the period of time
available to make a decision on your request under section 15A(1)(b) of the Act, as consultations
necessary to make a decision on your request were such that a proper response to the request could
not reasonably be made within the original time limit.
Our Response
Please refer to the attached Appendix for the information you have requested. Some information has
been withheld under the section 6(c) of the OIA, as making that information available would be likely to
prejudice the maintenance of the law including the prevention, investigation, and detection of offences.
You have the right to seek an investigation and review by the Ombudsman of this decision. Information
about how to make a complaint is available at www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or freephone 0800
802 602.
If you wish to discuss any aspect of your request or this response, please contact
