At Alrick Global Solution, we understand how overwhelming immigration processes can be. Potentially Prejudicial Information (PPI) is a formal concern letter issued by Immigration New Zealand (INZ). This letter is sent to applicants when INZ identifies potential issues with their application. It’s important to take PPI seriously, as failing to respond adequately could negatively impact your New Zealand visa application. We recommend seeking guidance from our licensed immigration advisers to ensure a strong and strategic response, improving your chances of a positive outcome.

A Request for Information (RFI) from Immigration New Zealand (INZ) is a request for further details on your visa application. Often, it signals that some information may be missing or unclear. In some cases, applicants may receive both a PPI and RFI, which can be stressful. Our team at Alrick Global Solution is experienced in handling these complex requests, ensuring you provide the necessary information promptly and accurately to avoid any delays in your New Zealand immigration process.

Applicants who do not meet the character requirements for a visa may still be eligible through a Character Waiver. However, if sections 15 or 16 of the Immigration Act apply, it may be more challenging to obtain. If you’re concerned about your character record affecting your visa, our licensed advisers will carefully assess your situation and help you apply for a Character Waiver if needed. We provide detailed, ethical advice to increase your chances of success in obtaining your New Zealand visa.

A Special Direction is not a standard immigration application but rather a formal request to Immigration New Zealand (INZ) for a special exemption or decision. It is typically used in unique circumstances when an applicant cannot apply through regular channels. This process requires in-depth understanding and careful handling. At Alrick Global Solution, we help you navigate these complex situations, especially for those affected by Sections 15 and 16 of the Immigration Act. Trust our expertise to guide you through Special Directions or Section 61 visa requests.

The Employment Relations Act 2000 forms the foundation of New Zealand employment law, governing relationships between employers and employees.

If you’re moving to New Zealand on a work visa or as an employer seeking to hire globally, our advisers can provide essential insights into how employment laws impact your rights and responsibilities.

A fixed-term contract is an employment agreement set for a specific period or tied to the completion of a project.

An Interim Visa is automatically granted by Immigration New Zealand (INZ) to keep applicants lawfully in New Zealand while their new visa application is being processed. You cannot apply for an Interim Visa directly. It’s essential to submit your visa application before your current visa expires to avoid any gaps in your legal status. If you’re concerned about your visa expiring, our advisers at Alrick Global Solution will guide you through the process to ensure your continued stay in New Zealand remains lawful.

Deportation is a serious matter that occurs when someone stays unlawfully in New Zealand or breaches their visa conditions. Immigration New Zealand (INZ) may issue a Deportation Liability Notice (DLN) for various reasons, including staying on a visa granted in error, providing false information, or breaching character conditions. If you find yourself at risk of deportation, our licensed advisers will review your case and provide the best strategy to challenge or appeal the decision, ensuring that every effort is made to protect your right to remain in New Zealand.

An e-Visa is an electronic version of a visa, issued online by Immigration New Zealand (INZ). This label-less visa is granted digitally, along with a visa approval letter that details your visa conditions. All types of visas, including resident visas and temporary visas, are now issued as e-Visas. At Alrick Global Solution, we assist clients with the e-Visa process, ensuring that all the required documentation is submitted correctly for fast and smooth approval.

To qualify, you must prove that your relationship is genuine and stable, with evidence of living together for a set period. At Alrick Global Solution, we help you navigate the partnership visa process, ensuring you meet the eligibility criteria and submit a strong application for a successful outcome.

You must first submit an Expression of Interest (EOI) and score enough points based on factors like age, work experience, qualifications, and a job offer in New Zealand. This category is ideal for those seeking a long-term stay in New Zealand with work opportunities. Our advisers at Alrick Global Solution specialize in skilled migrant applications, helping you assess your points and prepare a strong case for residency.

Employers must be accredited with Immigration New Zealand and meet specific requirements before offering jobs to international workers. This visa provides a stable work permit for up to 5 years. At Alrick Global Solution, we assist both employers and employees with the AEWV process, ensuring that all eligibility criteria are met for a smooth and successful application.

At Alrick Global Solution, we provide tailored advice and assistance, guiding you through the residency application process, ensuring your case meets all the necessary requirements.

Most New Zealand visa applications require you to meet certain health and character standards. For health, you may need to provide a medical certificate showing that you do not have any serious health conditions. For character, a police certificate is typically required to prove that you do not have a criminal record. In certain cases, applicants may request medical or character waivers if they do not meet the standard requirements. Our team at Alrick Global Solution helps ensure you meet these criteria and can assist with waiver applications if needed.

Yes, certain visas allow you to include your family members, such as your spouse, partner, and dependent children, in your visa application.
