Hi,
If my partner is on a Partnership Work Visa that has a 1 year duration, but wants to apply for the Partner of a New Zealand Resident visa, what happens in this scenario:
She is working full time using her Partnership Work Visa, this has an expiration date of let's say 8-9 months. If she applies for a Resident Visa which currently has a 12 month processing time... what happens if her Partnership Work Visa is approaching the deadline but she is still waiting for the resident work visa?
Does Immigration NZ extend the partnership work visa? allowing her to continue working while she waits for resident visa results.
or
Does she go on an interim visa and has to resign from her job?
thanks
