# New Zealand Immigrants # Introduction New Zealand has a beautiful environment and many social benefits. Many people want to immigrate to New Zealand. What are the immigration conditions in New Zealand? Next, I will give you a detailed introduction to immigration to New Zealand.

1. New Zealand immigration channels

1, skilled migration

Skilled immigrants account for about 60% of New Zealand's total immigration quota. According to published data, about 3,000-3,500 China people get New Zealand green cards through skilled immigrants every year. After obtaining a New Zealand degree, international students can get an open work visa for one year to find a job, and they can apply for a work visa for at least two years after finding a related job. During this period, if you meet the immigration conditions, you can apply for immigration.

2. Family reunion immigrants

The basic requirement of such immigrants is that their immediate family members (parents or children) or spouses are in New Zealand, and marriage immigrants also belong to this category. Such immigrants have no age limit or academic qualifications for applicants.

3. Entrepreneurial immigrants

Entrepreneurial immigration requires applicants to have more than three years of business experience or senior management experience. The investment amount is required to be above NZ $6,543.8+10,000 (high-tech venture capital is allowed below NZ $6,543.8+10,000, which requires special approval from the Immigration Bureau), and the English level requires IELTS 4. Generally speaking, entrepreneurial immigrants not only solve the livelihood problem of New Zealand, but also get the green card of New Zealand, killing two birds with one stone. It is relatively difficult for entrepreneurial immigrants to operate on their own, because it involves business plans, business transfer, lawyers and other related links. Choosing a reliable lawyer or immigration agency can save you a lot of trouble.

4. Investing in immigrants

The threshold of investment immigration funds is higher, but the IELTS requirements are lower. New Zealand investment immigrants are divided into two categories, one is that the application threshold for non-English requirements is NZD 6.5438+million, and the other is that the application threshold for English requirements (IELTS 3) is NZD 6.5438+0.5 million. Compared with entrepreneurial immigrants, investment immigrants do not need to do business in one step, as long as the funds arrive and have a green card. The money can be invested by buying government bonds, stocks and funds. The key to this kind of immigration is the legitimacy of investment funds and the transfer of funds.
