Frequently Asked Questions

Who can apply for a New Zealand visa?

Open FAQ answer

Anyone provided they meet the relevant criteria for the class of visa they are applying for.

Is it cheaper to get a visa through Immigration New Zealand or through an immigration lawyer?

Open FAQ answer

Generally speaking, it will be cheaper to apply for a visa through Immigration New Zealand. However, if you have filled the forms out incorrectly or have failed to supply the required documents, your application could be rejected or even declined. The procedure for applying for a visa is complex – and rife with potential pitfalls. This is why an immigration lawyer can benefit your case. When you submit a visa application, an immigration officer will evaluate your documentation to assess whether you meet the criteria. Applicants often submit incomplete documentation or fail to make a clear and compelling case that will satisfy the applicable rules. For more information about what an immigration lawyer can do for you, check out our services.

What are the fees for NZIL’s services?

Open FAQ answer

Fees depend on case type and complexity and are tailored to a client's situation. This is because our services are personal to the client, and the time it takes to resolve their concerns can vary. For specific fee estimates or quotes we invite you to speak to us in more detail about your case so we can give you an indication of our costs.

Who is allowed to give me immigration advice for my application?

Open FAQ answer

Licensed Immigration advisors and practising lawyers.

Can you guarantee that my application will be accepted?

Open FAQ answer

No. We can only follow best practice and provide you with the information and support you need to be able to submit a complete and relevant application that fulfils the criteria set out by Immigration New Zealand policy. If we doubt that your case will succeed, we will advise you of the reasons why. And if we don’t think you should apply, we will let you know.
