A client approached us for help with their Parent’s Residence Visa application, which faced challenges due to the father’s health. While the mother’s medical assessment was straightforward, the father’s history of high blood pressure required further documentation, including a cardiologist’s report and an echocardiogram. Immigration New Zealand also required a medical waiver for the father, adding complexity to the process.
Our team worked closely with the client, gathering detailed medical reports, addressing Immigration New Zealand’s concerns, and building a strong case for the medical waiver. By demonstrating that the father’s health condition posed no undue risks or costs, we secured approval for both parents’ visas, despite the challenges involved.

Navigating immigration with medical conditions can be complex, but we recently helped a client from India secure a Skilled Migrant Category Resident Visa in New Zealand, along with a medical waiver for a non-ASH (Acceptable Standard of Health) issue.
Our client’s medical condition did not meet the ASH criteria set by Immigration New Zealand (INZ), posing a challenge. We crafted a compelling submission showcasing the client’s skills, experience, and employment offer in New Zealand, emphasising the demand for his expertise. For the medical waiver, we provided evidence of his effective condition management, financial stability, and a strong support network, proving it wouldn’t significantly impact New Zealand’s health services. As a result, our client and his wife were granted residency without health-related restrictions. Securing residency in New Zealand can be complex, but with dedicated support, it becomes a fulfilling journey. Today, we highlight the inspiring story of a Fijian family who achieved their residence class visas despite significant obstacles, showcasing our commitment and expertise in immigration.
Our clients—a family from Fiji—have relied on our firm for years, seeking assistance with visitor, student, and Accredited Employer Work Visas. Their ultimate dream was New Zealand residency, a country they had come to love. However, their journey took a challenging turn when their child’s serious medical condition initially led to a decline in their resident visa applications. This setback required a strategic and determined approach. Following the initial decline, we appealed to the Immigration and Protection Tribunal (IPT), presenting robust evidence of the family’s contributions and commitment to New Zealand. Recognizing their circumstances, the IPT recommended a special direction from the Minister of Immigration, a decisive step in reversing the previous decision. Our key steps included a detailed assessment of the family’s situation, strategic planning aligned with the Immigration Act 2009, consistent communication with immigration authorities, and emotional support to help them navigate the uncertainties. After years of careful planning and sustained effort, the family proudly received their residence class visas. Now, they are fully integrated into their New Zealand community, enjoying the stability and opportunities of their new home. A recent Parent Resident Visa case highlights our firm’s expertise in securing visa approval despite significant health challenges faced by the applicant's father. By adeptly navigating New Zealand’s stringent health requirements, we helped our client bring his father to New Zealand, overcoming substantial hurdles.
Our client initially received a Potentially Prejudicial Information (PPI) letter, suggesting a high risk of visa denial due to health issues. We conducted a comprehensive assessment, followed by a well-documented medical waiver submission to address these concerns. Using our online portal, we provided a detailed paid consultation to understand the full scope of the father's health and immigration issues. Simon, our immigration expert, maintained consistent communication with the case officer, successfully negotiated an extension, and meticulously responded to all concerns. Through our portal, we ensured accurate and complete documentation without requiring in-person meetings. Simon also contested the initial medical assessment, presenting strong evidence to support our case. Ultimately, the Parent Resident Visa was approved, demonstrating our firm’s capability to manage complex immigration cases. This successful outcome not only secured the client's father’s residency but also strengthened our reputation for handling sensitive immigration matters. |
