Matters needing attention in each stage of New Zealand study visa

For students studying abroad for the first time, there are quite a few problems encountered in the visa application process, and the visa application process is also very troublesome. These doubts have caused great trouble to everyone. The following are some common questions, and we will seriously answer them for you to understand. The following is what I have brought to you, and I hope it will help you.

First, the preliminary materials

First of all, the materials must be prepared to provide the necessary basis for visa processing, so as to ensure visa processing. A successful application for a study visa in New Zealand requires the applicant to have certain conditions and prepare some relevant documents before applying. In the process of applying for New Zealand visa, some students either have insufficient preparation of New Zealand visa materials or fail to meet the requirements of New Zealand visa in other aspects, which leads to various misunderstandings in the process of applying for New Zealand visa.

Q: What's the difference between a student visa and a student permit? -

A: Many students began to think that student visas and student permits are the same, so they ignored the importance. This is a big misunderstanding. A student visa is a document signed by the New Zealand government on your passport, which allows you to enter New Zealand and automatically obtain a New Zealand student permit when you arrive at the New Zealand border, so that you can study in a school in that country. A student visa can be valid for a single time or multiple times.

Getting a study permit is very important for learning. In fact, a student permit is a document signed on your passport to ensure that you can study in the country where you study. This document will explain how long you can stay in New Zealand and other conditions of stay. These conditions include the name and address of the school you attend, and the courses you attend.

Second, the medium-term student visa

Q: When do I need a student visa? When do I need student permission?

A: Of course, both the student ID card and the student visa will be used in different places. What proof is needed under what circumstances? If you are outside New Zealand and want to study in New Zealand for more than three months, you need to apply for a student visa. Your spouse and children can apply for tourist visas or student visas. If you come to New Zealand with a tourist or work visa and want to study full-time, you need to apply for a student permit. You can apply to extend your student permit; Your spouse and children can apply for travel or student permission.

Of course, there are special circumstances. In some cases, it is not necessary to apply for a student visa and a student permit. If you are a New Zealand citizen or a New Zealand resident (such people need a resident return visa to re-enter the country) or an Australian citizen, an Australian resident with a return visa, or New Zealand is exempted from entry or has attended a course for less than three months, then you do not need to apply for a student visa and a student permit.

Q: Is there an age limit for studying in New Zealand?

A: The new policy shows that education is fair to everyone, and age will not be the limit of learning style. Anyone can apply for study at any time. The current study abroad policy does not require the applicant's age. In the previous study abroad policy, applicants must be under 35 years old, but the new policy cancels this requirement, and anyone can apply freely without age limit.

Q: How to write the letter certified by the employer? What are the requirements?

A: When applying for a visa, the employer's letter of confirmation is an important proof of applying for a visa. First of all, we should make it clear that the employer's certification letter refers to a letter issued by the employer where the payer works (the payer refers to the person who provides expenses for students applying for studying in New Zealand). This letter should include the employee's income, working hours and position. And this letter must be written on the company's stationery, with signature and official seal. If this letter is in Chinese, you must translate it into English and have the translator sign or seal it. If it is already in English, Immigration New Zealand will not ask for a Chinese translation.

Third, post-interview and passport

Q: Why is the visa application rejected?

A: When the visa application is rejected, it means that the applicant has his own problems and is restricted by the entry requirements. If the applicant does not meet the entry requirements or is not considered to be a real student visa applicant after examination, or according to New Zealand immigration law, the applicant is considered to belong to the following categories:

(1) The applicant has a criminal record and has been imprisoned for 5 years or more.

(2) The applicant has been detained for more than 12 months in the first ten years before the application.

(3) There is a record of being expelled from New Zealand by the New Zealand government;

(4) Not only New Zealand, but also any other country.

(5) Have participated in the destruction of New Zealand's security system and public safety.

(6) Members of criminal gangs that threaten New Zealand's policies and systems.

Q: Do you need an interview to study abroad?

A: Many students know that applying for courses requires interviews, but not all courses require interviews. All students who apply for high school or English courses need an interview, except those who can be judged according to the submitted materials. Our experience tells us that if we interview students, the probation time will be shortened.

Q: How long does it take to get a visa? -

A: The time is uncertain, and sometimes there will be unexpected situations, which may be delayed. Usually, it takes 8- 12 weeks to process student visa applications, but we can't guarantee that there will be results within this time.

Q: Do I need a passport when applying for a visa? -

A: Passport will not have much influence on visa processing. It depends on your passport. When submitting an application, if you have not applied for a passport, it will not affect the acceptance of the application, but if you have a passport, you must submit it at the same time.

The above answers questions for everyone, making it more convenient for everyone to apply for visas, and no longer blindly handling them, resulting in a waste of time and resources. Of course, the problem is inevitable. When we encounter a problem, don't worry, just query the relevant information patiently and correct the problem.
