Hi all, my huby has a permanent resident returning visa for nz. We want to move there. Can I get in just because I am his wife please? Trauled the web sites and its all too confusing! No specific answers to my situation. Thanks.

Yes, you can apply for a defacto visa. But you have to prove you are married and live together. Just show them a few bills in joint names, council tax and mortgage stuff and that should do it. Your visa will allow you to work at anything.

Look at the information at http://www.immigration.govt.nz

If still confused, you need a good New Zealand immigration lawyer or agent to handle your case.

Hi Moomin,

I think that if your husband isnt a NZ citizen, he will have to prove he's been a resident for a certain number of months/weeks. Here's the direct link to the immigration page to see if your husband can sponsor you:

And the link to the sponsor's immigration status:

As Jeremy said, you might want to seek professional help if you're not too sure.

Good luck,

Jen
