I have checked with INZ and her medical was received back from the MA on 12th March. Her visitor visa runs out on 9th April but I know they will extend that while a decision is being made. Really struggling to remain patient. I assume if she is denied a visa she has to leave the country immediately or do we have any other options? So sad if we do have to leave especially when everyone in the family has a visa except her. My husband has a high salary and I am working too. Will they take into consideration our tax contribution?
By the way, we came out for 6 months to test the water and decided to stay. That's why visas weren't obtained prior to coming to NZ. We have received an ITA through Skilled Migrant but holding out until we all have work/visitor visas.
