APPLY NEWZEALAND VISA

If your partner’s New Zealand residence is based on their Australian citizenship, Australian permanent residence or resident return visa, you can only apply for this visa if your partner lives in New Zealand.
If your partner is a New Zealand citizen and the two of you have been living together outside of New Zealand for 5 years or more, you may be granted a permanent resident visa. Your partner will need to be either overseas when you apply, or have been back in New Zealand for less than 3 months.

How we define partnership

We define partnership as 2 people of the opposite or same sex, who live together in a genuine and stable relationship in any of the following:
1 . a legal marriage
2 . a civil uniona
3 . a de facto relationship.

What it means to be in a partnership

You must be able to show us that you and your partner are living together in a genuine and stable relationship before we can grant you a visa based on your partnership.

If your partner is an NZ citizen

Providing evidence of your partnership

If you can, provide evidence from official sources with your visa application so you can show us you are in a genuine and stable relationship.

For example, a joint tenancy agreement showing the date that you and your partner started renting a property together is better than your friend writing us a letter to tell us how long you have been living together.

How we assess partnership

1 . marriage or civil union certificates
2 . birth certificates for any children you share
3 . a joint rental agreement or home loan
4 . joint bank accounts
5 . evidence you own assets together
6 . joint credit cards or hire purchase agreements
7 . joint utilities accounts, like power or phone bills.
