There are three fundamental ways to apply for a New Zealand visa from India:
1. SMC
The Skilled Migrant Category (SMC) allows you to live and work permanently in New Zealand. You must, however, go through a point-based system to determine whether you are eligible to apply for this visa. The points are simply assigned to your main profile facts, such as age, education, work experience, and so on.
SMC Eligibility Requirement
You may be eligible to apply for PR in New Zealand under the SMC category if you meet the following requirements:
- Are 55 years old or younger
- Fluency in English
- Have a decent personality
- Should be fit and healthy
You can apply for the SMC category through the following steps:
- Submit an online EOI (Expression of Interest), detailing your qualifications, abilities, work experience, and family.
- If you have a high enough score under New Zealand's point-based immigration system, your EOI (Expression of Interest) will be accepted, and you will be sent an ITA (Invitation to Apply) for a visa.
- You must fill out the form and submit it to the authorities along with the necessary supporting documents.
Investor Classification
The Investor category is primarily intended for individuals who wish to live and apply for residency in New Zealand by investing in a New Zealand business. To apply for this stream, you must select the Investor/Investor Plus categories.
Category: Entrepreneur
This Entrepreneur Work Visa is intended for persons who want to start their own business in New Zealand. You can apply for the Entrepreneur Residence Visa after running your own business in New Zealand for two years (6 months in rare situations) under this visa.
To obtain PR in New Zealand, you must first meet the New Zealand PR criteria. It is also important to remember that you cannot apply for New Zealand PR without first working in the country for a specified number of years.
To be eligible for a New Zealand permanent resident visa, you must have lived in New Zealand for two years on a residency visa and have met any of the five conditions, which include:
- You must have spent sufficient time in New Zealand.
- You have New Zealand tax resident status
- You have committed your time and money in New Zealand.
- You own a company in New Zealand.
- You've developed a presence in New Zealand.
SMC Visa is a point-based system with a minimum of 100 points required to qualify. Age, education, experience, spouse factor, and more variables are all worth 100 points. The total points are determined from a total of 160 points.
Under normal circumstances, obtaining a PR can take anywhere from 77 days to 5 months; but, due to the epidemic, there may be a delay.
Depending on your family members and visa category, the NZ PR visa might cost between 250,000 INR and 320,000 INR.
