Visa Application
As part of the process of the application for a resident's visa you are required to demonstrate that you and your family are all in good health. For that purpose, you will need to have a medical examination by a professional. For some countries the NZIS requires that such assessments are completed by pre-chosen doctors.
Good level of English
It is mandatory to have a good level of written and spoken English if you want to obtain residency here. All prospective residents are required to demonstrate their English skill or at least show that they intend to obtain English language training.
State health benefits
All permanent residents in New Zealand are entitled to healthcare. Besides, all visitors and temporary migrants from countries who have a reciprocal agreement with the goverment (like United Kingdom, Australia or Canada among others) are also entitle to receive health services.
Periodic tenancy agreement
The most common type of tenancy agreement available in New Zealand is a periodic tenancy that had no fixed time scale. These agreements are terminated by giving three weeks written notice to the landlord. Also the landlord is able to end the tenancy agreement by providing six weeks written notice to the tenant.
