From Decline to Success

Visa rejections can feel like a major setback, but with the right support and strategy, they can be successfully overcome. One of our clients, a resilient individual from Venezuela, encountered such a challenge when her partnership-based work visa to New Zealand was declined. However, she didn’t give up. She turned to us for assistance, and we were able to turn things around.

Securing the Partnership-Based Work Visa

After thoroughly reviewing the reasons for her work visa decline, we built a stronger, well-documented application that addressed all the concerns raised by Immigration New Zealand. Our efforts paid off, and we were able to secure her partnership-based work visa, allowing her to join her partner and build a new life in New Zealand.

A Successful Partnership-Based Resident Visa Application

Following the success of her work visa, our client from Venezuela trusted us once again—this time for her partnership-based resident visa. With her work visa now in hand, her next goal was to secure permanent residency and achieve long-term stability in New Zealand.

We worked closely with her to prepare a thorough and robust resident visa application, ensuring every detail was in line with New Zealand’s immigration requirements. Thanks to our diligent approach, her partnership-based resident visa was successfully approved, granting her the security of permanent residency in New Zealand alongside her partner.

Key Highlights

This case highlights the importance of both expertise and persistence when navigating the complexities of immigration:
  1. Expertise: Understanding the nuances of the Immigration Act 2009 and the requirements for partnership-based visas was essential to overcoming the initial visa decline and ensuring both her work visa and resident visa were approved.
  2. Persistence: A visa decline can be daunting, but with determination and professional guidance, it is often possible to turn the situation around. Our client from Venezuela’s success is a testament to the importance of perseverance in the face of challenges.
