VietnamBackground
Mr Liu runs a manufacturing business in Shanghai, and applied with his wife and one child. He wanted his child to grow up in an English-speaking environment.
Main concern
His own English was limited, and he assumed he couldn’t apply to New Zealand.
Our approach
We explained that Active Investor Plus has removed its English requirement, chose the Growth category and arranged qualifying investments, with a Chinese-speaking consultant throughout.
Process and outcome
He received resident visas in about 9 months, and his child started school in Auckland.
Adviser’s comment
Since the English requirement was removed, many investors who thought they didn’t qualify now can.
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.
