What to know before you choose a pathway
Can VisaPlex tell me which visa I qualify for?
No. VisaPlex provides general information. An eligibility view or recommendation about your circumstances is personalised immigration advice and requires a licensed adviser review.
Why should I check the source date?
Immigration settings, application systems and operational instructions can change. The source date shows when Immigration New Zealand published the update. Open the official source and check the article's last-checked information before relying on it.
What is the difference between a pathway guide and an update?
A pathway guide explains how a visa category generally works. An update records a dated policy, process or system announcement. The pathway guide gives context, while the update flags a change that may affect the questions you need to ask.
