Acquiring a work visa under partnership for 2 years are there many requirements from the partner in New Zealand.eg. X amount of $ per month, or is it a straight forward process. This lady will be getting married on her arrival and applying for a Residence Permit. What are the snags we should be looking out for. I believe I need to fill out a sponsorship form along with her application for a work permit or visa. Any one been down this track.
