What are growth investments?
什么是增长型投资?
Growth investments are all ‘acceptable investments’ as defined in immigration instructions except for:
增长型投资是所有在移民指南中定义为“被认可的投资”,除了以下的投资类型:
1. Investment in bonds, and
债券投资,
2. Philanthropic investment
慈善投资
For managed funds, Business Migration Branch will look at what types of investments are managed in the fund to determine the proportion of growth investment. For example, a fund which places half of its funds into bonds and the other half into shares would be recognised as having a 50% investment in growth orientated funds.
对于管理基金,商业移民部将研究所管理基金的投资类型,来确定增长型投资的比例。例如,将一半资金投于债券而另一半投于股票的基金将被视为拥有50%的增长型投资基金。
What are acceptable philanthropic investments?
什么是被认可的慈善投资?
Philanthropic investments can now make up 15% of acceptable investments. Investors are able to donate in any area. The policy will recognise donations to the following types of organisations:
慈善投资现在可占被认可投资额的15%。投资者能够在任何地区捐款。该政策将认可申请人向下列组织的捐款:
Registered charities: with a track record (ie. They have provided annual returns of at least two years) and with IRD donee status.注册慈善机构:有记录(即他们提供至少两年的年报)并且处于IRD捐款人状态。Not for profit organisations: providing social, cultural or economic benefits for NZ, and as approved by the Immigration Operations Manager.

What if I’ve already applied under the Investor 1 category at the time the policy comes in?
如果在新政生效时,我已在投资者1类下提交申请会怎样?
In order to be assessed on the eligibility to receive the benefits of investing in growth investments under the new policy (i.e. increased flexibility around time in New Zealand requirements) you should contact Business Migration Branch who will assess your total investments, the growth investment and the existing Visa conditions. Eligibility is assessed on a case by case basis.
为了评估是否有资格获得在新政策下投资增长型投资的利好政策(即在新西兰居住时间的灵活度),您应该联系商业移民部,他们将评估您的总投资额,增长型投资和现有的签证条件。 资格评定是根据每个申请具体情况进行评估。
What if I’ve already applied under the Investor 2 category at the time the new policy comes in?
如果在新政生效时,我已在投资者2类下提交申请会怎样?
When the policy changes, Investor 2 applicants will have the option to withdraw and relodge their application under the new policy. Those who take up the offer will have the fee waived on their subsequent application and will retain the same place in the processing queue. Each applicant will need to carefully consider whether the new or the old policy is best for them.
当政策发生变更时,投资者2类申请人将可选择撤回并在新政策下重新递交申请。对于选择重新递交的申请人将免除其在后续申请中的费用,并保留其在排队审理中的位置。每个申请人都要慎重考虑新政策和旧政策哪个才是最适合他们的。
I put in an expression of interest in which I claimed enough points to be selected under the old threshold, but from 1 May I won’t meet the selection criteria. What can I do?
我递交了一份意向书,可在旧的政策之下获得足够的分数,但从5月1日起,我将不符合挑选标准。 我该怎么办?
If your EOI has not been selected and remains in the pool at implementation of the new policy, you have the option to submit an expression of interest under the new policy. If you chose to do so, the EOI fee will be waived. If you choose not to, your old EOI will remain in the pool until it expires 6 months from the date your original EOI was lodged, but will not be able to be selected.
如果您的意向书尚未被挑选并且在新政策实施时仍保留在选池中,您可以选择在新政策下重新递交意向书。如果您选择这样做,将免除新意向书的申请费用。如果您不这样做,您的旧意向书将一直保留在选池中,直到您在最初递交意向书之日起6个月后自动过期,在此期间您的意向书将不会被选中。
Can I still submit an Expression of Interest?
我还可以递交意向书吗?
All Expressions of Interest received up until the last draw held on the day before implementation of the new policy will be assessed under the current instructions. From May 2017 all new EOIs must be on the new form.
在新政策实施之前举行的最后一次筛选,将根据当时的指导对收到的所有意向书进行评估。 从2017年5月起,所有新的意向书必须采用新表格。
When will the detail of the new policy be available?
新政策的细节何时可以出台?
The detail of the policy (the immigration instructions) is being worked on currently. It is likely to be approved by the Minister of Immigration by the end of March 2017.
政策的细节(移民指南)目前正在起草中。可能在2017年3月底前得到移民部长的批准发布。
1. 计分因素的改变概括:
A. 评分因素中最低投资资金由原来的150万纽币增加到300万纽币,所以现在的投资分数从300万纽币起算基本分数10分。
B. 年龄分参照技能移民, 按每5岁列出每档分数。 最高分由35分降低为 20分。
C. 经商经验由最高10年30分增加到15年 45 分
D. 英语的最高分由原来5+ 的10分加都雅思 8+ 的 20分
E. 投资资金投入25%到增长的投资项目 外加 20分。
由于最低入围分数线仍然为20分。如果假设仍然按原来的最低要求,投资必须要最低10分,经商最低3年9分, 英文要最低雅思3分得1分总20分的话。 其实上面改变的分数只能针对有竞争情况的入围分数对具备这些分数优势的申请人有利。 除了投资资金外。其它有可比性的是经商经验和英文。按我们以往对申请人的了解看。如果经商经验比较短和英文比较差的申请人,可能投资额要达到500万才能入围,假设300万的申请门槛还能吸引足够的兴趣的话。 我们只能拭目以待了。
2. 投资25% 的资金到增长行投资所带来的好处
A. 投资一类的移民监只要3年里面坐够88天。平均每年 30天。 并且可以在3年的任何时间完成。更加灵活。这个是具有吸引力的新利好。
B. 投资2类也类似,在4年中坐满 146X3 = 438的总天数。相比于现行的后3年中每年146天。更加灵活和低要求。属于新政的利好。
C. 投资在增长行的投资其实可选的稳健和合理回报的投资还是有不少的。类似新西兰房地产信托之类的基金。既稳健,又能为投资人带来比国债高几倍的收益。
D. 另外投资2类的申请人还可以享受优先处理的机会。但这个是否能实施还要看看他们怎么去做管理和甄别这些申请的。因为投资是在原则批准后发生的。如果先申报,是否有约束机制来规定原批后投资人去执行等因素。
3. 针对正在申请中的投资一类申请人。只要能投资25%以上到增长行投资项目。是有可能使用上新政的利好。
3. 至于慈善投资本人认为可能对大多数人来说。没有太大的意义。
由于政策目前只是一个大概的想法和框架,新西兰移民局需要在未来的5个月中把相对应的政策开发出来。具体政策还是有微调的空间。
总体来说,投资2类的申请条件的确是大大提高了。 所以够条件的申请人应该尽快提出申请。
