Background
Mr Chung, from Taipei, applied with his wife and two children. He wanted his children to study in New Zealand.
Main concern
His English was limited, and work made long stays difficult.
Our approach
He chose the Growth category, investing NZD 5 million in qualifying funds over three years, with just 21 days in New Zealand required.
Process and outcome
He received resident visas, and his children attend local schools.
Adviser’s comment
With the English requirement removed, the AIP is far more workable for Asian investors.
New Zealand AIP application process
- Assessment and investment planning (1–2 months): We assess your source of funds and choose the category and investments.
- Application (A few weeks): Lodge the resident visa application.
- Approval in principle and investment (Within the required period): After approval in principle, complete the investment.
- Resident visa (After approval): Receive the resident visa once invested, and maintain the investment for the investment period.
