Hi All,
Just trying to get my head around the requirements to gain PR from Residence. I'm still a little unsure about the process....
As far as I understand you have to remain in NZ for at least 184 days out of the 2 year period before submitting for PR. Does that mean you must spend that time in each of those years or can you combine the time into 1 of those years?
The other condition that would apply to me is the 41 days in each year and having spent a total of 9 months in full paid employment in the proceeding 2yrs before applying for PR. Would that be 9 months work across both years? and 41 days in each year or 82 combined?
Also, what would happen if you failed to meet the PR requirements and do the travel conditions expire? If so do you just lose the visa if you in / out of NZ.
Thanks in advance
Josh
