THE GREEN LIST PATHWAYS
Certain occupations that feature on the Green list offer an streamlined pathway to residence. We will advise whether this is an option for you and if so, what benefits this pathway may offer.
THE SKILLED MIGRANT RESIDENCE CATEGORY
One of the most popular New Zealand residence visa categories is based on an Expression Of Interest (EOI) for a resident visa under the Skilled Migrant Category. In this points system, our Licensed Advisers will assess whether you meet the requirements. You can claim points for your qualification, work experience, English language, or skilled employment, and you may be able to claim enough points to be Invited To Apply for residence (ITA). For most people, this means finding a job with a New Zealand employer, but we can help with this too!
SECTOR AGREEMENTS
Certain occupations in the health care of transport sectors offer a pathway to residency after working for 2 years in New Zealand. Complete our online assessment to see if you are eligible.
NEW ZEALAND WORK VISA OPTIONS
If you do not immediately qualify for residence or if you are only interested in temporary options, our assessment will also include eligibility for a temporary work visa that allows you to work in New Zealand, or other temporary visa options.
