I have received a visa to study in New Zealand, and now it's time to apply for ANZ advanced account.

20 10 is the second year that the New Zealand education authorities have comprehensively promoted the "special account for studying abroad" in China. 20 10 More than one and a half China students choose to open a special account for studying abroad when applying for studying in New Zealand, as a financial guarantee when studying in New Zealand. "Special account for studying abroad" is also called "deposit account for studying abroad". In order to facilitate China citizens to apply for a student visa to study in New Zealand for 0/2 months, since 2009, New Zealand has launched a "special account for studying abroad" in several provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities in China. Student visa applicants can deposit their study abroad fees into this special account. If the visa application is approved, part of the study abroad funds under this account will be remitted to schools in New Zealand as tuition fees, and the other part will be remitted regularly. Banks in New Zealand manage this account through fixed monthly loans for students to pay their living expenses in New Zealand. The special account for studying abroad helps to speed up the passage of visas. The advantages of this account are: parents can monitor their children's use of funds in New Zealand; More economical than the existing loan for studying abroad; It is easier to prove economic strength than the existing methods; At the same time, it can help visa officers to evaluate students' financial ability to pay for studying in New Zealand more conveniently. Because the special account for studying abroad can replace a series of asset guarantee documents, this move has been widely welcomed. 20 10, more than half of China students choose to open a special account for studying in New Zealand as economic security for studying in New Zealand.
