While we are New Zealand’s revenue agency, administering social policies is a significant part of our work.

We want to get social policy payments right for our customers so they can come through difficult economic times and thrive. 

Read about what we’ve done this year to:

  • support 340,000 families with Working for Families payments
  • prepare for the ‘pass-on’ of child support to an estimated 42,000 sole parent beneficiaries
  • deliver Cost of Living Payments to 1.7 million New Zealanders 
  • speedily process the KiwiSaver contributions of 3.3 million members to start earning investment returns.
