Start Your New Zealand Visa Plan
organised, then adviser-reviewed
Begin in AVA, our AI-assisted planning workspace, to organise your situation against how New Zealand's visa categories generally work. AVA does not decide whether you qualify or give immigration advice — it helps you prepare. A licensed immigration adviser then reviews your circumstances and explains the options that may apply to you.
How It Works
From First Conversation to a Clear Plan
- 1
Organise in AVA
Start in the AVA planning workspace to map your background, work, study, family or investment situation against the general visa framework. This is preparation and general information, not personalised advice.
- 2
Request an Adviser Review
Share what you've organised. A licensed immigration adviser reviews your circumstances against current Immigration New Zealand policy.
- 3
Understand Your Options
Your adviser explains which pathways may apply to your situation and what each would generally involve — so any decision to proceed is an informed one.
- 4
Prepare & Submit
If you choose to proceed, your adviser guides the documents and steps relevant to your situation and supports the application through to a decision.
Common Questions
Before You Start
No. AVA is a planning workspace that helps you organise information and understand how the categories generally work. It does not assess whether you qualify or grant any visa. Whether you meet the requirements is personalised immigration advice, provided by a licensed adviser, and visa decisions are made by Immigration New Zealand.
No. AVA is an AI-assisted planning workspace. Licensed immigration advice in New Zealand can only be given by a Licensed Immigration Adviser or other authorised person — at VisaPlex that is Ava Sanchez-Neal, LIA 200900809.
Your details are sent to our team and a licensed adviser will be in touch to arrange a review of your situation. There is no obligation to proceed.
A general sense of your goals (work, study, residence, family or investment), your background, and any current New Zealand visa status is helpful — but you can start with whatever you have and build it out in AVA.
