A clear plan. A simple approach.
Our process has been developed with years of experience, giving you clarity and certainty.
Your circumstances shape the process.
Every immigration journey starts in a different place. You may be exploring a move, joining family, considering an investment or already living in New Zealand. Our starting point is understanding your situation and what you want to achieve.
The stages below outline how we can work together. The services, sequence and next steps depend on your visa pathway and the strategy we agree with you.
A practical framework for understanding the work ahead, with clear roles along the way.
How we work with you.
Step 1 - Understand your options
The first key step in your journey is to understand the options available to you, the requirements for the specific visa pathway chosen and the steps to take.
Our full assessment process achieves this, in consultation with a fully licensed adviser.
Step 2 - Agree the plan
Once we have established your pathway, we will then develop a clear set of instructions and a strategy that you can work with.
More importantly our team will work alongside you to ensure that strategy is delivered on.
Step 3 - Document preparation
With your instructions in hand and our team available we work together to gather the documentation and evidence required for each step.
Being prepared in advance of the application, makes for a much smoother overall process.
Step 4 - Application submission
With your documentation in hand, we will prepare your application (possibly one of several) in draft and review this with you.
It is important that you are involved in checking that the information provide is 100% accurate.
Step 5 - Manage the application
Once your application is lodged we will manage any further requests from INZ and also keep you informed of the processing timeframes.
This can often be the most anxious step in the process, but rest assured we monitor the application carefully.
Step 6 - Consider what comes next
Securing the visa is important but successfully settling in NZ can require a lot of other things to take place and work to be done.
We are available to answer questions, long after the ink on the visa label has dried.
Good preparation is shared effort.
The most useful starting point is a complete and accurate picture of your circumstances. You do not need to have every document ready before making an initial inquiry in to your eligibility.
Assess your eligibility. We review your skills, qualifications and experience.
Understand the stages. We help to ensure that your plan is robust, clear and makes sense.
Plan ahead and stay up to date. We guide you through the documentation process, visa applications and all the updates in between.
Plan ahead. Keep timing realistic.
Document preparation and visa processing are separate stages. Timeframes vary and INZ makes the final visa decision.
A clear immigration plan for your move.
Your lifestyle plans and immigration options need to fit together. Our team can help you understand the relevant pathways, identify the right strategy and help you plan for the entire relocation process.
