I will be issued a work permit before I go there and I am planning to apply residency, if possible. Also, is it true that even if you are granted a work permit (in NZ), your spouse/fiance can't be granted the same? Another one : what could be the best way to get my fiance to new zealand asap (and how long will it take)? i have a job offer right now and the company is helping me process my work permit. we plan to get married but i'm afraid it would be cause too much work (and perhaps higher cost) for my employers (last thing i wanted to do is upset them). sorry for having so many questions. hope you could help me. thanks
