Student Visa Services

Work Visa Services
Work visas are often complex to navigate as there are many requirements not only for the role but also its match to the ANZSCO job description. We will help you and your employer to gather all necessary documents and will explain how to prove that there are no New Zealanders available for the job being offered. We can also help employers to obtain a INZ employer accreditation and job checks. We can provide guidance on advertising requirements as well.
Accredited Employer Work Visa (AEWV)
AEWV is the most common work visa people apply for when entering NZ to work. To apply for an AEWV, an applicant must hold a job offer from a New Zealand employer that is accredited by the NZ government.
Employers apply separately to become accredited, and that application needs to be approved before a work visa application is lodged. The employer will apply for the job offer you receive to be cleared by Immigration NZ before you apply (known as the “job check”). This will include satisfying the government there are no suitable NZ citizens or residents available to fill the job.
The main criteria are:
- Hold a genuine job offer from an accredited, paid at least median wage (unless your role is exempt from median wage requirements).
- Prove you are suitably qualified and experienced to undertake the job you have been offered.
- Be of good health and character.
- The visa will have an expiry date usually linked to the rate of pay.
- In some cases, the AWEV may lead to residence.
Employing someone on an AEWV visa is a three-step process, as follows:
- Employer Accreditation: The employer must be accredited with INZ before hiring a migrant worker on an AEWV.
- Job Check: Employer must apply to INZ for permission to employ a migrant worker on AEWV by lodging a job check application.
- AEWV Application: Once the above-mentioned 2 steps are successful, a migrant worker then can apply for an AEWV work visa valid for up to 5 years.
Skilled Migrant
Resident Visa Services
This is the most popular visa option for those who decide to settle in New Zealand permanently. The process comprises of two stages – Expression of Interest (EOI) where you need to score 6 points or more, and Invitation to Apply (ITA) where you have to prove everything you said in the EOI with documents.
Under Skilled Migrant Category Resident Visa system applicants need to collect a total of 6 points based on:
- NZ Professional Registration, or
- Qualifications, or
- Income
If applicants fall short of 6 points based on either of the parameters above, they can then claim a maximum of 3 points for ‘skilled’ work experience in New Zealand. ‘Skilled’ work means ANZSCO 1-3 occupations paid at the median wage or ANZSCO 4-5 occupations paid at 1.5x the median wage. You must have a full-time job or a job offer in New Zealand from an accredited employer to apply for this visa.
The process is quite technical and complicated which means many applicants like to use the professional services of Immigration Advisers to ensure that there are no surprises along the way.
Green List Visa Services
The New Zealand government has introduced a “Green List” to address labour shortages in critical industries and attract high-skill workers from overseas. This list prioritizes in-demand occupations for fast-tracked residency, facilitating a streamlined immigration process. If a role is listed on the Green List, and the applicant has the qualifications, registration or experience required, they may be able to get residence immediately or after 2 years of working in New Zealand.

We can provide expert guidance on the requirements and process, ensuring that your application is complete and meets all necessary standards.
Partnership Resident Visa
If you join your New Zealand citizen or resident partner permanently, you need to apply for a Partnership Resident Visa. With this visa, you can live in New Zealand indefinitely.
Please note – migrants who are based in New Zealand are required to stay on a valid temporary visa (i.e. work visa) while they are waiting for a resident visa.
