Living on-campus at Whitireia New Zealand offers convenience, easy access to classes and events, and a vibrant social environment, but it can be more expensive. Off-campus living provides more independence, potentially lower costs, but might require commuting and fewer social opportunities. Choose based on your preference for convenience versus independence and cost.

There are multiple factors that can directly affect New Zealand visa processing time of a candidate. Some of them are

  • Completeness of your application

  • Complexity of your application

  • Current workload of Immigration New Zealand

  • Your nationality.

For some cases, Immigration New Zealand conducts additional checks, such as background checks or financial verification. In such case, you need to be pro-active to response any mail you receive from Immigration NZ.

The New Zealand visa processing time depends on the type of visa application. If you are applying for tourist visa then the processing time is 2 to 3 weeks. The New Zealand student visa processing time is 30 weekdays. It can take more time, if the authority is facing high application load or unable to connect with you for verification.

If an employer wishes to hire a migrant on the Accredited Employer Work visa and the role is on the green list, they need not advertise for a job check. The employer can complete the job check without proof of advertising as long as the minimum requirements for the role match the minimum requirements given in the green list.
