Hey guys,
I currently hold an Essential Skills Work Visa, however I have been offered another job that I desire to take.
Unfortunately I don't not meet the requirements for a variation of conditions, as I will have more than two conditions changing. I will need to apply for a new Essential Skills.
I'm unsure of what order to complete the switch of visa whilst continuing to lawfully work in New Zealand.
- Do I apply for a new Essential Skill Visa whilst I'm working my notice period at my current job?
- Do I have to wait until my current employment contract is terminated until I apply for a new Essential Skills?
- Or would a cover letter explaining the situation suffice and cover a potential overlap of visas?
Any clarity on this process would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
