Hi there,
I live in the US and my girlfriend is an American citizen. I got my Permanent Resident Visa approved recently. I have till March 2010 to go to NZ to "activate" it. Then it automatically starts the 2-year RRV. There's no requirement that I have to get a job in NZ or anything. I basically need to live there 184 days out of each of the 2 years, blah blah blah.
Now, if I marry my girlfriend anytime, can I immediately apply for her so she can become a Permanent Resident too? Or, can I only apply for her after I "activate" my Permanent Resident Visa? Or, can I only apply for her after I get my Indefinite RRV?
Are there job/income requirement if I want to apply for her?
Thank you!
