We've essentially put all previous immigration processing on hold since Covid - our mandatory quarantine is currently full through November for just citizens returning home
- roca 5y agoI wonder how many of those MIQ bookings are citizens returning home from non-essential overseas trips. I think we should probably be making those trips a lot harder/more expensive and using those MIQ slots for more compassionate or business grounds.
- Taniwha 5y agoMiQ is free for citizens/permanent residents returning permanently home once (the rules are more complex than that but that's the essence, waivers are available for compassionate grounds) - so it's similar to what you suggest
- roca 5y agoYes, but it's not that expensive when you do have to pay. The fees don't even cover the full cost of the MIQ stay. It should be double or triple the cost of the MIQ stay because of the opportunity cost.
