Partnership Based Work Visa

This type of visa is typically sought by individuals who intend to accompany or visit their partner holding a Work Visa or in the process of applying for one. With this visa, there may be an opportunity for you to work and apply for visitor or student visas for your dependent children. Starting from May 31, 2023, partners of Accredited Employer Work Visa holders applying for a new work visa will, upon approval, have specific conditions imposed on their visa. These conditions include:
Employment with an accredited employer, with a minimum payment equivalent to the median wage.
If the partner works in a role covered by an uncapped sector agreement, they may be paid less than the median wage but must receive the wage threshold for their role.
If the partner's role is on the Green List or they are paid at least twice the median wage, open work rights will be granted.
In most of the cases, where the partner is paid below the median wage, eligibility for a partnership-based work visa will not be met.
To qualify for this visa category, you must cohabit in a sincere and stable relationship with your partner, meeting the criteria outlined in the immigration instructions. Additionally, you are required to fulfil health, character, and financial prerequisites, and your partner must endorse your application. Navigating the various visa options and determining the appropriate documentary evidence to meet immigration requirements can be challenging.

Our experienced team is available to assist you in discerning the most suitable approach, providing guidance, and aiding you through the application process.

By obtaining this visa, you can travel to New Zealand and stay for the same duration as the Work Visa holder.
