Partner of worker visa - Update
Pricilla Punnoose made this Official Information request to Ministry of Business, Innovation & Employment
Ministry of Business, Innovation & Employment did not have the information requested.
From: Pricilla Punnoose
Dear Ministry of Business, Innovation & Employment,
I've been waiting to join my partner in New Zealand. It seems a majority of the dependent visa applications are not processed yet. It's been months since I got married and I'm yet waiting for my VISA to arrive. I was told earlier that in May I will get an update, however the recent update states that I will be assigned a case officer only in June.
My concern is if it takes that much time to assign a case office, how much more time will it take to process the actual application? Could you please let me know if you can expedite?
Yours faithfully,
Pricilla
