What taxpayer savings are expected from the changes to immigration family residence categories?
Ten years after the changes are fully implemented (including the extension of the sponsorship period to 10 years) the Department of Labour has estimated that benefit costs from the Parent Category could reduce by up to $34 million annually. There would also be an annual saving of $6 million from the closure of the Sibling and Adult Child Category.
In addition to these savings, more facilitating policy settings for the parents of skilled migrants will help New Zealand to attract and retain more people with the skills we need to grow our economy作者: purpleapple 时间: 2012-5-13 22:02:53
