You could also call this:

Illustration for Student Loan Scheme Act 2011

When you apply for a temporary repayment suspension of your overseas-based repayment obligations, you need to choose someone in New Zealand to be your contact person. This person must live in New Zealand.

To nominate your contact person, you need to tell the Commissioner about them. You need to provide their name, a New Zealand postal address, and an email address if they have one. You also need to give their New Zealand phone number if they have one. There might be other information you need to provide about your contact person, which will be listed in the rules.

Your contact person needs to agree to take on this role for you. Make sure you have their permission before you give their details to the Commissioner.
