Frequently Asked Questions
Can I work and study?
Yes. This visa gives you full rights to live, work, and study in New Zealand indefinitely.
How do I get Permanent Residence (PRV)?
After living in NZ for **24 months** as a resident, you can apply for a Permanent Resident Visa (PRV) which allows you to re-enter NZ indefinitely. Note that the visa granted on arrival expires when you leave NZ, so tracking your 24 months of 'continuous residence' is crucial.
Do I need to apply before I fly?
No. Most Australians do not need to apply for any visa before traveling. You simply present your passport at the border.
