Frequently asked questions

What is the role of an immigration adviser, and why should I hire one?

An immigration adviser plays a crucial role in guiding individuals through the complex immigration process. We provide expert advice, navigate legal requirements, and ensure your application meets New Zealand’s immigration standards. Hiring an adviser increases your chances of a successful application and reduces the risk of errors that could lead to delays or rejections.

We specialise in a wide range of visas, including work visas, residency visas, family reunification visas, and student visas. Our expertise covers both temporary and permanent migration options, catering to the diverse needs of our clients.

Our assessment process involves gathering detailed information about your personal and professional background. This helps us understand your unique situation and tailor our advice to your specific needs. The information required typically includes your qualifications, work experience, family details, and any other relevant documentation.

We pride ourselves on our personalised approach and commitment to client success. Our team of experienced advisers invests time in professional development, ensuring we stay updated on the latest immigration regulations. Additionally, our dual-adviser review process provides clients with opinions from two experts, offering an extra layer of assurance.

The processing times for immigration applications vary depending on the type of visa and individual circumstances. Factors such as the completeness of your application, the accuracy of documentation, and current immigration workload can influence the timeline. We work diligently to streamline the process and keep our clients informed about expected timeframes.
