Good evening every one, I have a question about the resident visa fee.
In my ITA the fee is $2065 USD (which is about $3170NZD) cause I'm applying for the resident visa offshore from China. However, I check the fee on immigration website, if I apply in Auckland, the fee is only $1810NZD, does anyone know why the fee is so much different? And is this possible for me to bring my file here in Auckland then apply to Auckland branch and pay the cheaper fee? or I must pay the fee as it is in the ITA as well as my documents, must send to Shanghai branch?
And if it is possible, will it affect my result? cause I remember someone has say it's easier to have the resident visa when apply offshore rather than onshore?
Thank you,
Hannah
