RESIDENCE VISA
NZ Residency Requirements:
To live in New Zealand permanently, you must have an New Zealand Resident Visa followed by a Permanent Resident Visa after two years and then Citizenship if you so desire. Most pathways leading to New Zealand residency start with a Temporary Visa, which allows you to work, study or own a business in New Zealand.

There are a few types of visas which allow residence in New Zealand right away, such as the Skilled Migrant Category visa. However, you need to comply with the conditions attached to your visa, to ensure your pathway to the residence is not interrupted.

Migrating to a new country is a huge decision, and therefore before moving to New Zealand permanently, you will need to consider which visas you are eligible for and whether those visas lead to permanent residence NZ.

You also need to make sure that you are ready to move to New Zealand because you will need enough time to complete the requirements of your Temporary or NZ Resident Visa conditions.

The government-funded public services that you will be able to access in New Zealand depends on the visa you hold. The easiest visa to get isn’t necessarily the best.

Student Visa
If you want to study and migrate to New Zealand the Fee Paying Student Visa allows you to get an internationally recognised education while having the time of your life. You’ll need to pay the full cost of your courses and enrol with AN approved education provider.

While on an international student work visa, you study full-time at the course stated on your visa – this includes schools, tertiary (study after secondary school) and English language study. You can also work part-time up to 20 hours a week while studying or full-time in the holidays, depending on your visa conditions.

You can contact us to get a customised student visa checklist. If you want to bring your partner or children with you, they can apply for partnership-based visa based on their relationship with you. Your Student Visa is normally for the same length of time as the study you’ve paid for.

You can also apply for a Pathway student visa which will allow you to study 3 consecutive programs with approved education providers on a single visa.

If you want to stay in New Zealand to get some practical work experience after you’ve completed your qualification, you may be able to apply for a post-study work visa of up to three years.
