Skilled Migrant and Essential Skills — remuneration threshold changes
On 24 February 2020 : the wage or salary thresholds for Skilled Migrant Resident Visas and Essential Skills Work Visas will increase.
Annual review of remuneration thresholds
Once a year we update the remuneration or pay rate thresholds for the Skilled Migrant Category (SMC) Resident Visa 技术移民 and the Essential Skills Work Visa 基本技能工作签证.
The new thresholds are based on the New Zealand median salary and wage rate of NZD $25.50 per hour (up 2% from last year) which is equivalent to NZD $53,040 per year for a 40-hour per week job.
Changes to the income thresholds will not affect the duration or conditions of visas that we have already granted.
2019 review
We normally update the thresholds in November each year. This year we are updating them later so that workers and employers have more time to prepare for the changes. The changes come into effect on 24 February 2020.
Future reviews
In future we will continue to update the thresholds in November, but we will communicate the changes earlier.
New hourly rates for SMC Resident Visa applicants
From 24 February 2020, we are making changes to what an applicant applying for a SMC Resident Visa must earn to be awarded points for skilled employment. The annual salaries below are based on a 40 hour per week job.
Skilled employment in an occupation at ANZSCO skill level 1 to 3
From 24 February 2020, SMC applicants must be paid NZD $25.50 or more per hour (NZD $53,040 per year) to be awarded points for skilled employment.
Before then — between 26 November 2018 and 23 February 2020 — they must be paid NZD $25.00 or more per hour (NZD $52,000 per year).
If you apply for an Essential Skills Work Visa before 24 February 2020
If you apply for, or have applied for, an Essential Skills work visa and we receive your application before 24 February 2020, the old thresholds will be used to assess and determine your visa application.
If you apply for an Essential Skills Work Visa on or after 24 February 2020
Only new applications we receive on or after 24 February 2020 will be assessed against the new threshold.
The new thresholds will apply, even if the employment agreement was signed before 24 February 2020.
If you are applying for a further visa, this may mean the conditions or visa duration of the next visa could be different. For example, a chef paid NZD $21.50 an hour would currently be considered mid-skilled, as the occupation is ANZSCO level 2 and the pay is above the existing threshold of $21.25. If they applied for a further visa after 24 February 2020 they would be considered low skilled, unless their pay increased to above the new threshold of NZD $21.68.
