Frequently Asked Questions

How long does it take to get a permanent residence visa?
Every application is different and processing times largely depend on the type of visa being applied for.
Can the immigration authorities refuse my application?
Yes. A surprisingly large number of applicants are unaware how strictly the immigration regulations are enforced and are often unnecessarily refused or delayed due to technical errors on their application or by submitting the wrong supporting documentation. So the moral of the story is to consider seeking the professional guidance and independent advice of a Licensed Immigration Advisor before lodging an application.
What if I am already in New Zealand and facing deportation?
If you are have been issued a deportation liability notice or are otherwise facing deportation, you have a limited time in which to lodge your appeal so an urgent and thorough response is required. It is important that you engage a specialist deportation lawyer to maximise your chances of a successful outcome.
