    I am guessing you applied under SMC. Did your application include a job offer? Which INZ office is handling your application?

    I am not up to date with times in Wellington. In Henderson, clients for SMC who are in NZ and already working are waiting 5 - 6 months for a Case Officer. Hopefully, your wait is almost over!

    If you don't have a job offer, I am afraid that your application goes into Tier two. The wait is much longer in this queue.

    Hi. Your health certificate hasn't expired. It has to be less than 3 months old on the date when it is lodged with INZ. Therefore you don't need to produce another one for 36 months under normal circumstances - and maybe never.

    Longer in weeks, months or years? I can handle the wait but I wish I have a concrete idea on the time frame..

    It's hard to say as it depends on number of Tier One. At a guess (and that's all it is) I would think you should have a Case Officer in 2 - 4 months. I hope it's sooner! Good luck!
