If you wish to hire an AEWV-holding migrant worker who has already been employed by another employer here in New Zealand, there are steps required before you can hire them. To stay on the right side of the law, the AEWV holder’s visa conditions need to be updated to include (among other things) you as their employer. If you’re interested in hiring someone from overseas who is in New Zealand on a work visa, talk to us! We can help keep you and your new employee legally compliant. Find out more, or get support:

In the wake of INZ announcing increased visa charges from October 1, many of you may be looking at getting your applications in asap. But our Licensed Immigration Advisors want to remind everyone that it’s really important to 𝗮𝘃𝗼𝗶𝗱 𝗿𝘂𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 in case you make a mistake or miss something. That’s because Immigration NZ will not refund charges for an incomplete or incorrect application, and if declined for those reasons, you will need to reapply and pay the fees again – of course, that’s not ideal if your goal was to avoid paying the higher fees! You can get expert guidance and support for preparing and submitting your application from one of our friendly Licensed Immigration Advisors.

After months of updates from Immigration NZ, more changes to the NZ visa process are underway. This time it’s an increase in visa charges. You can read more about the changes in our latest article 👉 https://lnkd.in/gsMgSeiD Some of the charges will more than double, so between now and October 1 there may be an influx of applications. A reminder to do your applications carefully, ensure they’re correct and complete as INZ does not offer refunds for declined applications. If you need support to ensure you get the best possible chance of having your application accepted, get in touch – our Licenced Immigration Advisers are here to help. #NewZealandVisa #VisaChanges #ImmigrationUpdates #LicencedImmigrationAdvisers #VisaApplications #INZChanges #MigrationMatters #VisaAdvice #ImmigrationNZ Tanya Gray Cameron Gray Joanna Marie Caraig Yazmin Ng

𝗩𝗶𝘀𝗮 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗴𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗲 𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗹𝘆 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗢𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝟭, 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟰 Some fees are doubling, and some are more than doubling. For example, on 1 October the following application charges will increase: ➡️ AEWV: from $750 to $1540 ➡️ Fee-paying Student Visa: from $375 to $750 ➡️ Skilled Residence: from $4290 to $6450 ➡️ Partnership Residence: from $2750 to $5360 You can see the full changes here 👉 https://lnkd.in/gxFcta6W For applicants, this could result in an increase in visa application volume before the changes come into effect. It also highlights the importance of getting your application right the first time, because INZ does not offer refunds for incorrect or incomplete applications.
