Thank you, Alan. I'm very glad if the truth for the questioner turns out to be easier than it looked to be. (I said excuse me when what I found
appeared to contradict what you said, and you didn't quote any source - how the heck does that make me self-righteous?)
Jakarta, if you've got any further worries, don't forget you can ask INZ directly.
http://www.immigration.govt.nz/migra...zis/contactus/ They DO reply, and within only a few days.
So this thread may be a useful resource for anyone finding it later, here's the link to the leaflet Alan mentions.
