Time allowed to activate PR visa...
Hi guys
I know this has probably been asked several times before, but I keep coming across conflicting answers!! Am I right in thinking that if you are granted PR you have 6 months to collect the visa stamps in your passport? Also, once you have the visa stamp in your passport, you then have a further 12 months to enter NZ to activate it?
Sorry for repeating previous questions but I just want to sort out a timeline in my head!
Thanks in advance for any replies

You are 100% correct. 6 months for passports and 12 months to get in!
