A new look for the igovt logon service

10 June 2013.

From 1 July, the igovt logon service will be called RealMe®. You will still use your igovt username and password to login.

The igovt logon service is becoming part of the RealMe service. This means the login for MyStudyLink and Apply online will look different and will be called RealMe.

Your current igovt logon will still work; you will just use the RealMe login button instead of igovt.

The RealMe service will be as secure as the igovt logon service and it will continue to protect your privacy.

The Department of Internal Affairs is responsible for the igovt and RealMe login services and is currently sending emails to all igovt users to let them know about upcoming changes to the login service.

Students can be assured that the information contained in this email is legitimate and from the Department of Internal Affairs. For more information about the RealMe service and this change go to www.realme.govt.nz/faqs/
