11月15日新西兰绿党消息,政府继续在移民制度中优先考虑高收入人士。

今天恢复父母签证类别后,需要结束政府不公平的基于工资的家庭团聚政策。

绿党移民发言人里卡多·梅嫩德斯·马奇(Ricardo Menénd ez March)说:”当家庭能够相互联系时,他们就会茁壮成长。人们应该能够与他们的家人一起迁移,而不考虑他们的工资”。 里卡多·梅嫩德斯·马奇说:“重新开放父母签证类别,只对‘技术’移民优先考虑高收入者的家庭团聚,而迫使低收入者保持分离。

我承认,部长一直致力于降低“技术”移民类别的工资门槛,但并没有走得足够远,以确保每个人都能够与他们的家人,无论他们的工资。

从本质上讲,政府告诉人们,如果你来到新西兰,在一家大公司工作,那么你的父母可以和你一起来。

但是,如果你来这里工作的学校或医院,那么你可能会被迫离开你的家人。

虽然重新开放的父母类签证会给一些家庭带来缓解,但它会阻止许多人与他们的父母在一起。

我们的移民制度应该提供公平的居住途径,而不是将移民减少到经济单位。绿党将继续为一个公平的体系而奋斗,有了更多的绿党议员,我们就能实现这个目标”里卡多·梅嫩德斯·马奇说。

14 November,Govt continuing to prioritise high income earners in immigration system The resumption today of the parent visa category needs to be followed by an end to the Government’s unfair salary based family reunification policy.

“Families thrive when they are able to be connected. People should be able to migrate with their families regardless of their salary. Reopening the parent visa category for only “skilled” migrants prioritises family reunification for high income earners, while forcing those on lower incomes to stay apart,” says Ricardo Menéndez March, Green Party spokesperson for immigration.

I acknowledge that the Minister has worked to lower the salary thresholds for the “skilled” migrant category, but doesn’t go far enough to make sure everyone is able to be with their family regardless of their salary.  Essentially what the Government is telling people is that if you come to New Zealand to work in a big corporation, then your parents can come with you. 

But, if you come here to work in a school or hospital, then you could be forced to stay apart from your family. While the reopening of the parent category visa will bring relief to some families, it will prevent many from ever being together with their parents. 

Our immigration system should deliver equitable pathways to residency and not reduce migrants to economic units. The Green Party will continue fighting for a fair system, and with more Green MPs we can make this happen” says Ricardo Menéndez March.
