what i do?

[Anael]

Well, i need to get experience to apply for a skilled visa (I'm chef) then I've been thinking about my options,the first is get a working holiday and after a visa for temporary work, is possible? But the most important problem with this is that i have wife and how can i get visa for her??

If you get a temporary work visa, you will be able to sponsor your wife for a partner sponsored temporary work visa http://www.immigration.govt.nz/migra...milystream.htm, to match yours for length of time. If you get to the stage of being able to apply for Residence, she will be able to be included on your application.

But you wouldn't be able to do this while on a WHV - she would have to get a visa in her own right for that period of time.
