Because licensed advisers have specialist expertise. They have met competency standards and

follow a professional code of conduct.

The code requires advisers to:

• be honest, professional and respectful

Licensed advisers can help you:

• explore all your visa options and choose the right visa

• prepare your visa application

• settle in New Zealand

• assess whether you can appeal a declined visa

• assess your options if you are in New Zealand unlawfully

It is totally your decision of who you are comfortable with. At Dreams Immigration, we help and assist students who are offshore and can assist by all means with their applications with INZ. Once the application is lodged, INZ deals with our Immigration Advisor and we can coordinate with you at all times.

With a proper consultation, you get to know your visa options that will assist you in making a better decision.

At Dreams the first consultancy is free

Yes, we have clients from all over Auckland and overseas.

We will require some initial documents in order to assess your eligibility. You can send them to us via the enquiry form on our website or can email us at Info@dreamsimmigration.co.nz

Absolutely you can but ensure that you get all your documents correct. If unsure, please get correct guidance and advice before you lodge your application.

You can check it through INZ website.

You can go through the checklist and ensure you have included all documents as required for the type of application you are lodging. Keep in mind the branch you will submit your application because they may have some extra requirement or charges for e.g. offshore branches and VAC’s

Yes. But you may be required to include additional documents for the family and prove relationship if you chose to do so.

All locations and Branches of Immigration New Zealand are mentioned on their website but
If you are overseas keep in mind the local VAC’s

They will refer you to seek professional help if you are not sure how to prepare the application.

It is an open Question and it is best to seek professional help even if you have the slightest of doubt. Going by our experience where people have assumed their qualification was completely relevant have had their applications declined by INZ.

Once again, this is an open question. To be able to maintain the rights of the local New Zealand residents and citizens it is important that your salary falls within the range but it is dependent on the Industry as well. Best to check with your Immigration Advisor.

An employment is considered full time if the working hours in a week are 30 or more.

It depends on your qualification, employment details, job description and the type of Industry. There are many factors to be considered in order to assess your eligibility for residence. It is therefore highly recommended that you check with your Immigration Advisor.

It happens quite a lot in the changing economy where for any reason the business has to close. It is best you start planning for your next visa as soon as possible because the longer you leave it – it will be considered as Breach of your current visa conditions.

You can try looking for a job elsewhere and if successful then apply for Variation of conditions or apply for Visitor Visa if you cannot find any options immediately.

That way you will maintain your legal status in NZ.

It is usually for Student Visa where you need to show living expenses for the duration of the Student visa. The living expenses for a year are $15000 or $1250 per month if the study is less than 12 months.

The same also applies for Visitor Visa where the applicant needs to show they have $1250 per person per month for the duration of their stay in NZ.

In lieu of the funds, you can also have an Acceptable Sponsor for your Student or visitor Visa application.

Yes you can as long as you have not breached the current visa conditions. But you need to be very careful because recently we have come across applications where students are influenced by cheaper fee and try to enrol in a course which is not relevant to what they had provided to INZ with their previous application.

It is recommended that you seek professional help when making such decisions.

Yes, but it is preferred to seek professional advice because you may now be unlawful and every step you take may affect your status.

Yes there could be other available options for you. We recommend to see the Immigration Advisor immediately.
