WTR to PR
If you entered New Zealand as WTR (under Skilled Migrant Category) then you don't need to wait for 2 years, 3 months is more than enough as stated in the requirements or documentation that they have given us. When I applied for PR (from WTR) it only took me less than 2 months for the application when my Permanent Residency has been granted. But if you enter New Zealand as a Work Visa/Permit holder then you have to have at least 2 years working here AND salary must be at least $45,000 NZD p.a. (at the time of this writing).
Good luck!
Best wishes,
Harold
