Residence lasts for ever while you are within NZ, so your residence will not expire. (It is the travel conditions which only have a two years' life.) You can't apply for PR until you fulfil all the conditions, one of which is to have held your Residence for two years, so there is no question of applying early. https://www.immigration.govt.nz/new-...anent-resident
