Frequently Asked Questions

How long will my visa application take?

Open FAQ answer

Depending on your circumstances, the process of obtaining a visa through NZIL can take anywhere between a few weeks to a few months. Each case is different. It also depends on which type of visa you are applying for. When you work with us, we will always provide a clear guideline on how long it will take. For more information, visit the processing times page on Immigration New Zealand’s website.

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.

Why should I use NZIL?

Open FAQ answer

Unfortunately, some applicants simply will not meet the criteria to be issued a visa. We know of many cases where a candidate submitted their own application only to find they were not eligible. We understand the system and requirements and can review your documents and advise you on the likelihood of success. This could potentially save you thousands of dollars in wasted application fees if you don’t have a strong case. We can look over your application and give you in-depth advice on a clear pathway forward. With our many years of experience in dealing with complex immigration matters we will be able to direct you on the best course to take.

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.

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.
