What to get clear first

  • Identify whether the question is about accreditation, a job check, a named worker or an existing worker changing circumstances.
  • Gather the role title, duties, location, hours, pay range and recruitment information before comparing official pages.
  • Use INZ employer pages as the source of truth for current process and evidence requirements.
  • Treat decline or reconsideration questions as time-sensitive and avoid relying on generic summaries.

Official pages to check

Use these pages as the current source of truth before you act on the topic.

Information worth having ready

  • The exact visa, application or decision you are asking about.
  • Relevant dates, including expiry dates, application dates or decision dates.
  • Documents that explain the job, relationship, family connection, study plan or travel plan.
  • Any official letter or message from INZ, especially where a deadline may apply.

What may need a fresh check

Accreditation settings, job check requirements, role acceptability, fees, forms and processing times.

Where general information stops

The right official pages and a clearer question can make the next conversation easier. A general guide cannot decide what a person qualifies for or what to submit.
