Migrant Resident Visas w/ Ricardo Menendez March: October 14, 2022

A pair of resident visas that have been closed for some time have recently been re-opened. 

Immigration minister Michael Wood announced the Skilled Migrant Category, and the Parent Category visas would be re-opened, allowing people to become residents through their careers or through their children. 

However, various groups have criticised the conditions of entrance, including the Green Party who’ve raised concerns about class inequality becoming a part of the system, 

Liam spoke to their immigration spokesperson, Ricardo Menedez March, about the current system and what can change.
