Migrants Dying While Waiting for New Zealand Parent Visas

New Zealand

#familyvisa

#residence

Over 10,000 migrant families have applied for New Zealand’s parent residence visa, but many parents face long waits in a random ballot system. Some die before getting a chance to settle. Once selected, processing takes about 195 days, but the growing pool means uncertain wait times.

The annual cap is 2,500 visas. Past policy changes and income requirements have disqualified many. A new long-term visitor visa is being considered, with policy work expected to be finished by year-end. MPs say visa reforms, including work and digital nomad visas, must be finalized before changes for parents can proceed.

United States

#visadenial

#entry

The US denied entry to Pakistan’s Ambassador to Turkmenistan, K.K. Ahsan Wagan, and deported him from Los Angeles. Wagan had a valid visa but was stopped by immigration authorities due to “controversial visa references.”

The exact reason remains unclear. Pakistan’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs is investigating. Wagan, a seasoned diplomat, was on a personal visit. The incident raises concerns over potential US travel restrictions on Pakistanis.

Reports suggest Pakistan could face tougher visa scrutiny, with possible limits on business and tourist visas. Pakistan is seeking clarification from US authorities regarding the matter.

A US court has blocked the Trump administration’s attempt to deport Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil. Khalil, a Columbia University graduate, was arrested by immigration agents.

The Department of Homeland Security accused him of supporting Hamas but gave no proof. His lawyer called the detention an attack on free speech. ICE revoked his visa and green card.

Protesters in New York demanded his release. Trump vowed to deport “terrorist sympathizers.” Columbia University denied aiding ICE. A hearing is set for Wednesday. Officials also threatened Khalil’s pregnant wife. Critics call the move political repression. His supporters insist he is innocent.

Denmark Tightens Student Visa Rules to Curb Misuse

Denmark

#studentvisa

#visapolicy

Denmark is tightening student visa rules to prevent misuse. Many international students, especially from Nepal, use study permits mainly to work, which impacts Denmark’s job market.

Authorities found a sharp rise in Nepalese students enrolling in low-quality schools. Many work in low-paid jobs instead of focusing on studies. New rules will block students in unofficial programs from automatic work rights.

Their spouses will also lose work permits. Officials say this will protect Danish workers and prevent labor exploitation. These changes align with the EU’s upcoming ETIAS system. Denmark’s move may influence student visa policies across Europe.
