Parent Policy Question

Our Son has sponsored us and we have been allocated an officer four weeks ago. Waiting 16 months: Next month we think we will get approval as he only asked for update of Son's earnings. "My question is: If i get approval next month April and i wait to send our passports Oct.2011. I will have a year to enter NZ which will be Oct.2012 for 4 weeks holiday and come out again, can i just fill the other 5 months at the end of the 2 year period to make up the 6 months required. which would be April 2014 permanent stay. I need to go by this to reach retirement. :fingerscrossed:

Re: Parent Policy Question

I'm going to move this into the main forum for a short while. There are folks doing the parent policy thing and they are better able to answer this for you.
