Migrant Bus Drivers Seek Changes to Residency Pathway

Migrant bus drivers who stepped in to fill shortages post-Covid are concerned about their future. They are calling for changes to the residency pathway that currently presents significant challenges.

Drivers argue that the English language requirements for residency are too extreme, making it difficult for them to secure long-term status in New Zealand. Many feel they have supported the transport sector during a critical time, and now face uncertainty.
