We have been in NZ for year and half and this is second time apply for visa (extension). My partner as a student and me as work visa. Both has permanent full time job. I have a question regarding bank statement. should we hold the money in account until we receive the visa. Say we show 40000 dollars which is more than enough but now need say 35000 dollars to be sent to europe for investing or saving or buy something. Does it make any problem specifically as we put our employment contract in application? Are they asking bank about it?
As far as I know banks do not give any info for third party though not sure about immigration.
