Hi everyone!
Here is my time line!

Work visa:
15 May- submitted
18 May- fee deducted
30 May- query about advertisment from a CO
5 June- replied query to CO
15 June- work visa approved!
Work visa was submitted with immigration adiviser.

Partnership work visa:
16 May- dropped application to Auckland city centre branch
18 May- received a mail(courier) it was passport returning.
21 May- interim visa granted&
Application fee deducted
19 Jun- Call from CO regarding police certificate
18 Jun- pics and some documents returned
25 Jun- partner work visa has approved!
(Done by myself)

I just wrote specifically since I know how hard it is to just wait.
We came to New Zealand as working holiday last year, and now we have work visa!

And here is some problem.
My partner's work visa has gratned 3 years thankfully, but it turns out mine is only for 2years and 5months. (I applied for the partner work visa)
I called and asked them why, they told me that it was becauae of my passport is expiring on 21 January.

In this case, is there anyway I can strech my partner work visa until my partner's work visa ,which is 3years?
I am going to renew my passport(10years), then is there anyway that I could get the same length of my partners work visa?

Many thanks guys.
