Visa applications can still be lodged
Immigration NZ is not fully back to work but some Immigration Officers are working remotely. The only visa applications being processed right now are those related to the border closure, temporary partnership, international students, post study work visas or victims of domestic violence. All other applications are on hold until further notice.
At Level 2 no more than 50% of Immigration NZ staff will head back to work. We expect visa processing delays to continue for some time to come.
The good news - if any of your team want to apply for visas the team at Malcolm Pacific Immigration can help. Just get in touch.
