Find Your Pathway to Permanent Residency in New Zealand with Various Visa Options
If you’re considering moving to New Zealand, you may be interested in learning more about the different types of resident visas that are available. New Zealand offers a range of resident visas for people who want to make New Zealand their permanent home, including Greenlist Skilled Resident Visas, The Skilled Migrant Category Resident Visa, and Partnership-Based Resident Visas.
The Greenlist Skilled Resident Visa is for skilled workers who have a job offer from a New Zealand employer and who have the skills and experience needed to contribute to New Zealand’s economy. This visa requires you to have a job offer in an occupation that is on the Long Term Skill Shortage List or the Regional Skill Shortage List and to meet certain health, character, and English language requirements.
The Skilled Migrant Category Resident Visa is for skilled workers who have the qualifications, experience, and attributes that are needed to contribute to New Zealand’s economy. To be eligible for this visa, you must first submit an Expression of Interest, which is a document that outlines your skills, qualifications, and work experience. If you meet the minimum requirements, you will be invited to apply for the visa. The Skilled Migrant Category Resident Visa is a points-based system, and you will be awarded points based on factors such as your age, work experience, qualifications, and English language ability.
The Partnership-Based Resident Visa is for partners of New Zealand citizens or residents who want to live with their partner in New Zealand. To be eligible for this visa, you must be in a genuine and stable relationship with your partner, and you must meet certain health, character, and English language requirements. This visa can lead to permanent residence in New Zealand, but you must meet certain conditions, such as living with your partner in New Zealand for a certain period of time.
