Help and frequently asked questions


Password, login and set-up issues 

How do I reset my password?

You can reset your password by entering your email into the forgot password page on the portal.

Can you reset my password for me?

No. We cannot reset passwords for Operator Admins due to privacy and security reasons.

You can reset your password by entering your email into the forgot password page on the portal.

Can you set up Reporters for me?

No. The Operator Admin must set up their own reporters in the portal – they can do so by clicking "invite user" button.

There should only be one person using the Operator Admin login for privacy and security reasons.

Can you deactivate Operator Admin/Reporter accounts?

If Operator Admin/Reporter leaves a village, we can deactivate their login. Please email us at rv@retirement.govt.nz. 

I haven't set up an account for the portal. What do I do?

If you are a new Operator Admin who has no prior villages in this portal from a previous Operator Admin then you need to create an account

The account creation process involves these simple steps:

  1. Register by providing basic details.
  2. You'll receive an email to confirm your address and prompt you to set up a password. Once your password is created, you can access the reporting system.
  3. Add a village by using the 'Add village' button, find your village registration number, and save it.
    This step is repeatable for multiple villages but only needs to be done once per village.
  4. After the above steps, your account is ready for filing and submitting village complaints when the reporting period is open.

Once this is done all subsequent reporting will be easy.

We have changed Operator Admins since the last reporting period. How do I change the Operator Admin?

For existing users who have a change of Operator Admin please fill out the following form before doing anything in the portal: Update Operator Admin form.
