Frequently asked questions

For most Resident Visa categories under the skilled pathway, there is an age limit of 56 years…when you turn 56 you no longer qualify. There are no limits for most temporary Visas and for all family based Resident Visas.

For some, yes you can still make the move and secure Residence without having a degree or diploma although it is obviously not as easy. We have various Visa pathways that lead to Residence and are based on your earning potential in New Zealand or you being able to work your way to Residence.
-
Whilst we do still have some categories that lead to Residence once you have a Work Visa (called a Work to Residence pathway), most Work Visas don’t provide you with an automatic Resident Visa approval. Securing a Work Visa is often the first part of the process to secure Residence, but it is not the only process.
