Thinking of moving to New Zealand with your partner?

In this episode, we sit down with Charlotte Stockman from NZ Shores Immigration Advisors to unravel the complexities of the New Zealand partnership visa, a visa that allows partners of Kiwi citizens and residents to live, work, and eventually gain residency in NZ.

Charlotte shares exactly what Immigration NZ looks for in a relationship, how long you need to have lived together, what kind of evidence makes or breaks an application, and why simply being married isn’t enough.

Whether you’re a Kiwi returning home with your significant other or a couple starting fresh in Aotearoa, this episode is packed with practical advice and real-life examples.

We also dive into:

  How to apply for a work or residency visa through a partnership

  Whether you can enter New Zealand before your visa is approved

  What happens if your relationship breaks down

  How to include children in your application

  Common pitfalls to avoid

If you’re in a genuine relationship and dreaming of a life in New Zealand, this episode is a must-listen.
