How can you overcome delay in processing times of New Zealand Visa?

New Zealand is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world. It receives a high number of visa applications, especially during the summer months. During this time there is a surge in visitor visa applications. International students too, apply for their Student Visas for the upcoming academic year.

 

New Zealand has recently closed a few of its processing branches. New offices are still learning to deal with different profiles and identifying risky ones. This has led to a temporary backlog situation.

 

Also, New Zealand will stop visa processing for 2 weeks over the holiday period, as per Mondaq.

 

Whom will this backlog impact?

The delay in processing times due to the backlog will impact people who have recently submitted a visa application. It will also impact those who wish to submit a visa application in the coming months.

 

The delay will also impact employers in NZ who wish to file for Work Visas for employees to commence work in early 2019.

 

Tips to overcome the delayed processing times of New Zealand Visa:

  1. File your application early. Keep in mind the published Visa processing times. It is better if you keep more time on hand.
     
  2. Do not rely on previous processing times and book non-refundable flights. Bear in mind that there could be a possible delay. Hence, book flights accordingly.
     
  3. Apply through the New Zealand online immigration portal
     
  4. Provide all the supporting documents as mentioned in the checklist. Providing all information at the outset will help you avoid further requests. This, in turn, will help you save valuable time.
