Successful Partnership Visa Case 91

8/4/2025

 
After facing disappointment with a declined resident visa application she submitted on her own, our client from Germany knew it was time to get professional help. She and her partner, a New Zealand citizen, were determined to build a life together in Aotearoa, so they reached out to our licensed immigration adviser, Simon, for guidance.

During their consultation, Simon carefully assessed their situation and explained the best path forward: applying for a partnership-based work visa first, followed by a resident visa. He outlined the process clearly in a letter of engagement, which the couple quickly signed.

Once engaged, Simon and his team got to work. They put together a well-prepared and detailed partnership-based work visa application that clearly demonstrated the genuine nature of the relationship. Thanks to the strength of the submission, the application was approved.

Now, with the work visa in hand, we’ve moved on to the next step—applying for her partnership-based resident visa. We're thrilled to be part of their journey and can’t wait to celebrate another successful outcome soon.

Successful Partnership Visa Case 90

2/4/2025

 
When our South African client first approached us, she was in a difficult situation—she had become unlawful in New Zealand and needed help with a Section 61 request. With a young son and a Kiwi partner, her future in New Zealand felt uncertain.

We assisted her with her Section 61 request and successfully regularised her status. From there, she and her partner chose to continue working with us to secure her future in New Zealand through a partnership-based work visa.

Given the importance of keeping the family together, Simon handled the preparation with his usual attention to detail. Every aspect of their relationship and family life was clearly documented and presented. Thanks to this thorough approach, her 3-year partnership-based work visa was approved without issue.
​

We are now assisting them with the next step: applying for her partnership-based resident visa from within New Zealand.
​

Helping this family stay together has been a privilege, and we’re proud to have played a role in turning their uncertainty into long-term stability. For assistance with your partnership-based visa, click the below button.

Successful Section 61 Case 59 (Unlawful)

28/3/2025

 
Life in New Zealand can be full of opportunities, but for some, the path to a better life comes with challenges. This is the story of a resilient man from Tonga who came to New Zealand years ago seeking a brighter future. Unfortunately, circumstances led to him overstaying his visa, and for many years, he lived in fear of deportation.

Despite the hardship, he built a life, found love, and started a family. Now married with a child, his dream of staying legally in New Zealand became crucial. Determined to secure a stable future for his family, he reached out to us for help with his Section 61 application.

Our experienced immigration advisor, Simon, took on the challenge. Section 61 applications are notoriously difficult, requiring careful preparation and strong justification. We worked closely with the client to gather evidence and craft a compelling case that demonstrated his ties to New Zealand and the hardship his family would face if he were deported.
​

After meticulous preparation and a well-structured submission, Simon's efforts paid off. The Section 61 request was granted, and the client was issued a visitor visa, allowing him to remain legally in New Zealand. Now, his family can live without fear and build a future together.

Successful Student Visa Case 11

25/3/2025

 
At Immigration Trust, we take immense pride in building long-term relationships with our clients, guiding them through various stages of their immigration journey. One of our successful clients, whom we previously assisted in securing both a work visa and a residence visa for his partner from Cambodia, recently reached out to us once again — this time for his brother-in-law's student visa.

His brother-in-law, also from Cambodia, wanted to come to New Zealand to study and be with his sister. Having successfully navigated the immigration process for his partner, our client knew that securing a student visa could be challenging, especially considering the complex requirements and the importance of demonstrating genuine intentions.

Trusting our proven expertise, he turned to Immigration Trust to ensure that his brother-in-law’s application was meticulously prepared and well-presented. We worked closely with the family to gather the necessary documentation, craft a compelling statement of purpose, and demonstrate the genuine relationship between the siblings.

Our client’s confidence in us paid off once again, as the student visa was successfully granted. Now, his brother-in-law is set to join his sister in New Zealand to pursue his studies and build a new chapter in his life.
​

This case is a testament to the ongoing trust our clients place in us and our unwavering commitment to delivering successful outcomes, no matter the visa type. If you or your loved ones need assistance with visas — whether it’s a partnership, work, residence, or student visa — get in touch with Immigration Trust. We are here to guide you every step of the way.
