ASSESSMENT COST

A fully licensed Immigration adviser will assess your eligibility and advise you on the best way forward. This will ensure that you save time and avoid costly mistakes.

You will receive a written report within 10 to 15 business days, dependent on the amount of enquiries received at the time of submitting your information required to make an assessment. The assessment will be based on the understanding and interpretation of the New Zealand Immigration policy, legislation and operational policies.

If your details and circumstances require further investigation and research, or is complex, you’ll be requested to provide further information in order for the adviser to provide you with the best advice and options.

The fee for a written report and assessment is NZ$200.00 if in New Zealand. If in South Africa a flat rate of R2000.00 is applicable, to cover bank fees. This fee is not subjected to the exchange rate on the date. This amount will be deducted when you sign on as a client.

You are under no obligation to use our services following the assessment and are free to apply on your own.

We do trust that you would use the professional services and knowledge of the adviser to assist you with your application.

Mistakes are costly and always result in delays, costing you money and a loss of income, plus the danger of having the job offer being withdrawn.
