Student Loan Scheme Act 2011

Repayment obligations of borrowers - New Zealand-based borrowers' repayment obligations for salary or wages - Standard deductions resulting in significant under-deductions or over-deductions

66: Commissioner must determine whether significant over-deduction made

You could also call this:

"The government checks if they took too much money for your student loan"

If you ask the Commissioner to check if too much money was taken from you, the Commissioner must do two things quickly. First, they need to figure out if a big mistake was made and too much money was taken. Second, if they decide that no big mistake was made, they must write to you to let you know. This happens when you think the standard amount taken from your pay for your student loan might be too much.
