Hello. Am australian citizen and my wife is indian citizen who is living with me in aus on partner visa. We planned to visit NZ for 14 days cruise holiday and applied for a visitor visa for her on 28 oct via paper application in sydney.
We havent heard anything back yet. Its 21st day today. Also spoke with immigration team in NZ however they just advised to wait. Am worried as we have paid for the trip already and is on 7 dec.
Did anyone else have similar experience ? Does ot normally take this long to process visitor visa and they take this long to make first contact ? Really worried.
