Do you need a visa for New Zealand?
Get expert assistance from our Licenced Immigration Advisers!
The visa application process for New Zealand is complex and highly bureaucratic. For you and your family a lot depends on a successful outcome.
Many of our clients have confirmed that they would have found it challenging to navigate their visa process without expert assistance.
Getting professional expert advice will save you nerves and money when you are about to take one of the most important steps in your life.
"Initially I tried to do it on my own, but it is too difficult to do it on your own without any help! I feel so much more relaxed now that I know an expert team will be handling my affairs. It is a nightmare to try and figure everything out on your own". T.H (South Africa)
"Your counselling before starting the process, during the work visa application, EOI and finally the Residence Visa application was exceptionally professional and has exceeded our expectations." P.M (United States)
"Your advice and to-the-point documentation not only shows your knowledge but also raised our confidence in the success of our process." Y.N (United Kingdom)
We will manage every step of your visa application process for you - from start to finish.
The range of support you will obtain from our team of Licensed Immigration Advisers includes but is not limited to:
Our Licensed Immigration Advisers will determine the visa policy that meets your personal and professional background, and align it with your personal timing for your arrival in New Zealand.
If you are migrating with your partner or family the requirements for them to be included in your visa application will be covered in your immigration strategy.
Your immigration strategy will be developed around different pathways to New Zealand:
Your immigration strategy will form the foundation for your entire immigration process.
It will be your guideline for the coming months and we will refer back to it throughout the process, to ensure that you will stay on track with making the desired progress towards your goal of obtaining your visa and becoming a resident in New Zealand.
Based on your immigration strategy your Licensed Immigration Adviser will provide you with a detailed list of documents, tailored specifically to meet the requirements of your chosen visa policy, as well as comprehensive document guidelines.
We recommend that you commence working with us on collating the necessary documentation for your visa application well ahead of your arrival in New Zealand. This will allow us to submit your visa application to Immigration New Zealand as soon you fulfil all visa eligibility requirements. Meticulous preparation will ensure that all necessary paperwork is complete and in the required format and no valuable time is lost through avoidable queries from the authorities involved with your visa application process.
If your overseas qualifications require an external assessment by the New Zealand Qualifications Authority, NZQA, it is important to note, that this can be a lengthy process which will take several months to complete. Your Licensed Immigration Adviser will let you know if an NZQA assessment will be required in your case, so that we can factor in the time this will take.
At this stage of your immigration process you will most likely get caught in the Catch 22 dilemma.
If - like most migrants - you are applying for your visa under the Skilled Migrant Category, you will need a job offer to meet visa requirements.
Unless you succeed in obtaining a job offer, your visa application process will come to a standstill before it can even start.
Most immigration agencies will say: "Come back to us to start your visa application once you have a job offer in New Zealand."
Our unique Fusion Service will get you through to the next step of your visa process!
At NZIC your Licensed Immigration Adviser will team up with your Job Search Professionals, and together they will provide a unique and powerful Fusion Service that will empower you to break through the Catch 22 barrier and allow us move your visa application to the next stage: Submission and Processing of your visa application.
Whether you are applying for a Skilled Migrant Visa, a Business/Investor Visa or for a visa under the Family/Partnership policy, your Licensed Immigration Adviser will ensure that all eligibility requirements of your chosen visa policy are fulfilled, and your visa application is formally complete and absolutely faultless before it is lodged with Immigration New Zealand.
Once your visa application has been formally accepted by Immigration New Zealand, the verification process commences.
If your application does not add up in any way, be it because one of the eligibility requirements has not been met, or because any of the required documents are missing or lacking the required format, INZ will get back to you for further clarification.
No matter which visa policy will be right for you, our Licensed Immigration Advisers will support and guide you through this step of the process.
We will liaise with Immigration New Zealand and other authorities involved with your visa process on your behalf and follow through to completion: Your visa for New Zealand.
