New Zealand’s Introduced Straight-To-Residence Visa for Tier 1 Jobs



New Zealand’s Introduced Straight-To-Residence Visa for Tier 1 Jobs





New Zealand introduced a “Straight to Residence Visa” this month, offering a direct pathway to residency for individuals in Tier 1 jobs within high-demand industries, such as healthcare, IT, and engineering.

 

This visa simplifies the process by removing traditional work-to-residency criteria, thereby reducing processing times, and making it easier for skilled workers to relocate to New Zealand. 

The initiative reflects New Zealand’s strategy to attract and retain top talent, addressing critical labour needs and supporting the country’s long-term economic growth.
