Immigration to New Zealand - NEW ZEALAND FAMILY MIGRATION VISAS

The objective of Family Category Policy is to strengthen families and communities, while reinforcing the Government's overall objectives in immigration policy.

The Family Category is available to you if you:

• Are in a genuine and stable marriage or de facto relationship (whether heterosexual or same sex)with a New Zealand citizen or resident who sponsors their application; or
• Have immediate family members who are New Zealand citizens or residents and who live permanently in New Zealand; and
• Are the dependent children of New Zealand citizens or residents.

Family Quota Category
The Family Quota Category is available to those applicants:

• who are not eligible for residence under any other category of residence policy; and
• who are sponsored by a family member who is a New Zealand citizen or resident living permanently in New Zealand; and
• whose sponsor's registration is drawn from the pool of people who have registered as sponsors under the Family Quota Category.

The Quota size will be announced each year.
