Applying for a variation to your visa or a new work visa:

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship โ€” like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
