Sponsoring Parents for visit
Hi!
I have been trying to search all possible threads, articles, FAQs posted on the internet to find out as to how can i sponsor my parents to get a visitor visa (single / multiple entry).
Alert! - My parents are retired and have no source of income but are dependent on me. I am currently on a Silver Fern Practical Work Permit.
If in case I am deemed to be ineligible for sponsoring, can my organisation sponsor my parents in this case? Ideally looking for a multiple entry visa for them so that they can stay with me for the valid periods.
Regards,
RMeow

Re: Sponsoring Parents for visit
Residents and citizens can sponsor their parents for multiple entry visitor visas/residency but not those on a temp visa. You must have been a Resident for three years before you can apply for residency for your parents.
They would have to apply for a visitor visa in the normal way: http://www.immigration.govt.nz/migra...rs/default.htm
Or, be able to invest significantly in NZ which doesn't sound like it is the case.
