Is it really that easy to change a New Zealand tourist visa to a student visa?

New Zealand tourist visas can be converted into student visas. If an applicant with a New Zealand tourist visa submits a student visa application in China, but the tourist visa has expired but the student visa has not yet come down, the New Zealand Immigration Bureau will automatically give the applicant a bridge visa valid for 6 months, and the student visa will be approved in about 4 weeks. After the student visa comes down, the bridge visa will automatically expire.

First, apply for a New Zealand school.

Fill in the application form for admission. For international students, there is usually an entrance interview, mainly about the applicant's understanding of the major and his plans after completing his studies.

Receive the admission notice from the New Zealand school and pay the tuition fee.

Three, apply for a student visa to the New Zealand Immigration Bureau, the application materials include:

1, original passport

2. Visa application fee (remittance)

3. Student Application Form (INZ 10 12)

4. passport photo.

5. Notarization of academic qualifications

6. Original and photocopy of IELTS test report.

8, the school's application for admission (not an application for admission, only the text behind)

9. Relevant materials of the school (tuition receipt and insurance receipt)

10, proof of accommodation

1 1, physical examination report

12, proof of living expenses
