Successful Residence Visa Case 59

This client sought our expertise to navigate his Skilled Migrant Category (SMC) visa application. After an online consultation with our team, he confidently engaged our firm. Our CEO, Simon, promptly prepared and submitted his application to Immigration New Zealand (INZ).

However, when the global Covid-19 pandemic struck, he and his wife were stranded in their home country, India. Thanks to our secure online portal, all communication for his SMC visa continued seamlessly, even from abroad.

In 2021, when the 2021 Resident Visa was introduced, the client hoped to apply. Unfortunately, he didn’t meet the requirements as he was still outside New Zealand. He consulted Simon, who advised him to maintain his SMC application and notify INZ about his recent job change. Following this guidance, Simon liaised with the INZ case officer to ensure consistent updates on his application. After much perseverance, his resident visa was finally approved.
