Hi,
Just wondering if anyone can give advise on the following.
Our residence visa 2yr travel conditions are due to expire in middle of Feb 2014 but we are currently outside NZ and have only stayed in NZ for 1 month during this time. Can someone please clarify the following questions:
1. To continue my visa is my only option to get back to NZ before middle of Feb 2014?
2. If I get back to NZ before travel conditions expire, how many months do I need to be there before I can apply for a variation of travel conditions & how long would it allow me time out of NZ if any?
3.How long in total to gain PR?
4. I am the principal applicant but my partner and child will be unable to get to NZ before their travel conditions expire. What are their options - will they need to apply for a second/subsequent resident visa or will they have to apply from the very start with medicals etc?
Thanks
