Hi guys,
hope someone can help me with my visa issue.
We have been living in NZ now for 5 years on a work permit (didn't apply for residency since we thought we might stay only temporary, but somehow kept extending our stay from year to year..)
Our visas will expire in January and we are planning to stay another 3 months to have a last big holiday in this beautiful country. Therefore the next step would be to apply for visitor visa. However, I thought it would be a much simpler application. We have to organise a medical certificate, police certificate etc. (for only 3 months????) which will result in another 800 dollar + the 130 dollar for the vistor visa application.
Is there maybe another alternative way....I doubt it, I think we are caught in the bureaucracy of NZ Immigration.... but someone might have a clever idea.
Thanks
