What happened to Jericho & Ruebe Residents Society Incorporated

Nothing on the register shows Jericho & Ruebe Residents Society Incorporated reregistering under the Incorporated Societies Act 2022. After 3 years of incorporation, the 5 April 2026 cut-off ended its legal existence.

What the register shows about Jericho & Ruebe Residents Society Incorporated

  • Jericho & Ruebe Residents Society Incorporated was incorporated in 2022 and had operated for 3 years by the time the register closed to it. 542 of the 1,902 removed societies were formed in the 2020s.
  • It is one of 480 societies registered at Auckland addresses that were removed, and the 368th-oldest of them.
  • As a community or residents society it was not alone: 37 others in Auckland and 149 nationwide were removed in the same sweep.
  • The last contact the Registrar held for it was Blackwood Montagna Limited. Only someone who was an officer or member on the day of removal may apply to restore it, so that record is usually the starting point.

Restoring Jericho & Ruebe Residents Society Incorporated is open until 6 April 2032, roughly 5 years away, and the application must come from someone who was an officer or member on the day it was removed. What a removed society can no longer do and how the Form IS22-RES08 application works are covered in full in the guides.

How Jericho & Ruebe Residents Society Incorporated gets restored

Seven steps, in order, for a society that never reregistered under the 2022 Act.

  1. 1

    Find someone who was an officer or member on 6 April 2026

    The application has to come from a person who held that role on the day of removal. Someone who joined afterwards cannot apply, which for a society running since 2022 usually means tracing the last committee.

  2. 2

    Get back to 10 members who have consented

    The 2022 Act sets a minimum of 10 members, and consent to membership has to be recorded rather than assumed. Reconstructing that list is the step that stalls most applications.

  3. 3

    Write a constitution that meets the 2022 Act

    Mandatory content is listed below

    Restoration puts the society under the new Act, and a 1908-era rulebook will not satisfy it. The Companies Office publishes a free Constitution Builder that drafts a compliant one, and a checklist of everything it must contain.

  4. 4

    Adopt it at a general meeting

    The notice period comes from the rules the society already has, not from the new constitution — it is not in force until members adopt it. Record the resolution; an amendment has to reach the Registrar within 25 days of member approval.

  5. 5

    Lodge Form IS22-RES08

    NZ$177.78 + GST payable to the Registrar

    Emailed to compliance@companiesoffice.govt.nz or posted to the Companies Office, with the society name and number exactly as the register holds them, and an explanation of why it did not reregister in time.

  6. 6

    Wait out the objection period

    About 4 weeks

    Once the Registrar is satisfied, the restoration is publicly notified and anyone may object for 20 working days. That runs however clean the application is, so budget roughly four weeks for it.

  7. 7

    Restart banking, insurance and funding

    Banks, insurers and grant funders act on what the register says. None of them move until the restoration appears there, so this is the last step rather than something to arrange in parallel.

What the constitution has to contain

  • The name of the society and its purposes.
  • How a person becomes a member, and how membership ends.
  • How the committee is elected or appointed, and what disqualifies an officer.
  • A dispute resolution procedure meeting the Act’s minimum standards — the clause 1908-era rules almost never have.
  • A contact person the Registrar can reach, and how that person is appointed.
  • How the constitution itself may be amended.
  • What happens to surplus assets if the society is wound up.

The Companies Office publishes a free Constitution Builder that drafts one for you, and a checklist of everything it must contain. Neither costs anything.

Questions about Jericho & Ruebe Residents Society Incorporated

Is Jericho & Ruebe Residents Society Incorporated still registered?

No — society number 50136792 of Auckland is recorded as Removed. It held its 1908 Act registration from 2022 and never reregistered under the 2022 Act, so the Registrar struck it off when the transition window shut on 5 April 2026.

Who can apply to restore Jericho & Ruebe Residents Society Incorporated?

Only a person who was an officer or a member on the day it came off the register. For a society incorporated in 2022 that usually means tracing the committee as it stood in early 2026, and the Registrar's last recorded contact was Blackwood Montagna Limited. Applications close 6 April 2032.

What happens to the assets of Jericho & Ruebe Residents Society Incorporated?

Until it is restored it cannot hold a bank account, property or insurance in its own name, including anything registered to its Auckland address. Anything it owned can be treated as ownerless and pass to the Crown, and committee members can be personally exposed for obligations taken on in the meantime.
