Having made the decision to move to New Zealand,

If an indefinite move is what you are seeking then let’s check whether Residence is a possibility.

There are various types of temporary visas depending on whether your intention is to work, study, or visit New Zealand. These range from simple to complex application types. Contact us to see which is right for you.

This is when you should consider a temporary work visa. Migrants with job offers from New Zealand employers can apply for the Accredited Employer Work Visa (AEWV). This 2022 visa replaces most other temporary employer-specific visas including Essential Skills and Work to Residence.

To meet eligibiity requirements for the Accredited Employer Work Visa you will need to

• meet generic identity, health and character requirements, and

• be experienced and/or qualified to perform the role. This includes occupational registration if that is required in your field.

Your employer will need to already be accredited and have a job check approved. We can help your employer meet these requirements.

There are various ways you can connect with loved ones who are already eligible to live and work in New Zealand. You will need to

• meet generic identity, health and character requirements and

• provide proof that your relationship is genuine.

This process can feel invasive and many applicants struggle with formatting, relevance, and other uncertainties.

We can advise on your eligibility and assist you every step of the process to ensure a strong application. Contact us to get started!

There are many pathways into New Zealand such as Working Holiday Visas, Partnership Visas, Student Visas, Visitor Visas, Business Visas and Special Visas. The best way to find out if you are eligible is to contact a Licensed Immigration Advisor who can find the right solution for your situation and goals.
