New Zealand tightens visa rules due to unsustainable migration levels
ai generated text
New Zealand has announced changes to its employment visa program in response to a near record high net migration of 173,000 non-New Zealand citizens last year. The updates include introducing English language requirements for low skilled jobs and setting minimum skills and work experience thresholds for most employer work visas. Some reports also mention the reduction of maximum continuous stay for lower-skilled roles as part of the changes.
