In a seemingly straightforward case, one client faced a hurdle that threatened their chances of obtaining a partnership visa. Working while holding an Interim Visa, which expressly prohibited employment, resulted in their visa being rejected.
Desperate for a solution, the client sought the help of a new adviser who devised a plan to argue that the work was merely a friendly favour, not for monetary gain. Although warned of the plan's uncertainty and the possibility of failure, they applied for a character waiver as a backup option.
Unfortunately, the plan fell through, prompting the client to withdraw their application. The client was lost as the ill advice from his previous lawyer put him in more trouble.
Struggling and in dire need of assistance, they reached out to our firm and sought the expertise of our CEO, Simon. Following a successful consultation, Simon swiftly provided the client with a letter of engagement, which they eagerly signed, jumpstarting the process.
A crucial step entailed responding to the PPI, a task undertaken by both Simon with the help of the client. Through meticulous preparation, including written statements and support letters from relatives and friends, they presented a compelling case to INZ.
The hard work paid off, as the application resulted in a positive outcome, and the client received the much-coveted approved work visa. Overjoyed, the client and their partner can now finally free themselves from the immense stress they once endured thanks to Simon's expertise. Moreover, they are now remarkably closer to obtaining New Zealand residency, marking a significant milestone in their journey.
