See also Immigration Act 2009 s 94

1. People whose Expressions of Interest (EOI) have been selected from the Pool may be issued with an Invitation to Apply (ITA) for a resident visa under the Investor 2 Category if:
   1. the information provided does not indicate the presence of any health or character issues which may adversely affect their ability to be granted a resident visa under the Investor 2 Category; and
   2. a business immigration specialist considers that the person's claims in regards to:
      • points for age, business experience, English language ability, investment funds; and
      • settlement funds,

   which were the basis for selection from the Pool, are credible.

2. A business immigration specialist may seek further evidence, information or submissions from a person whose EOI has been selected from the Pool, for the purpose of determining whether to issue them with an ITA under the Investor 2 Category.
3. A business immigration specialist's decision to issue an ITA for a resident visa under the Investor 2 Category (based on information, evidence and submissions provided prior to application) does not guarantee:
   1. that the points claimed by the applicant will be awarded; or
   2. a positive assessment in respect of health, character, English language, or any other requirements, of any subsequent application for a resident visa; or
   3. that the person will be granted a resident visa.
4. The selection of an EOI from the Pool may not result in an ITA for a resident visa under the Investor 2 Category.
5. The issue of an ITA does not guarantee that a resident visa will be granted.
