8 December 2021
Immigration Minister Kris Faafoi and MBIE is being taken to court by Michael Witbrock... over his Chinese husband's Visa application being suspended, which they applied for in November 2019.
It comes as processing of applications filed before the border was shut have resumed, but aren't being decided on.
Lawyer Pooja Sundar says the suspension was not only unlawful ... but discriminatory.
She says it disproportionately affects those from different ethnic groups, sexual orientations, gender identity and religion.
