Adding AMS client - Christchurch reconstruction - to all relevant applications

It is expected that INZ will receive requests for information on the number of migrant workers granted visas to assist with the Christchurch rebuild. The following process will ensure that INZ can track the number, and type, of visas granted to aid in the Christchurch rebuild. Please note that other options were explored but this is the most effective option that is currently available and will allow us to track this work immediately.

Please add this client number to the contacts tab as a ‘contact – other’ for all work visa applications where the person is being recruited primarily to assist with the Christchurch rebuild. This contact should be added in addition to the employer and/or other usual contacts.

Note: Please also ensure that any applications for partners and/or dependent children are linked to the worker’s application.
