NZ Residence Pathway Assistant

Describe your visa, occupation and work history in your own words and get an indicative explanation of which New Zealand residence pathway may apply. This tool explains published Immigration New Zealand criteria only — it is not immigration advice and does not assess your eligibility.

What this tool covers

It explains the Green List (Tier 1 Straight to Residence and Tier 2 Work to Residence), the Care Workforce Work to Residence pathway, and the median wage rules that sit underneath them, and points out what still needs to be checked with a Licensed Immigration Adviser.
