The Parent Category and the Parent Retirement Category
New Zealand offers two distinct pathways for parents of New Zealand citizens or residents (adult children) to migrate to the country.
These policies are designed for different financial situations and provide opportunities for families to reunite.
If you have a child who is a New Zealand citizen or resident you may be able to join your family in New Zealand.
A Parent Resident Visa will allow you to live, work or study in New Zealand and stay here indefinitely.
Considering these two options, families should weigh several factors:
Financial situation:
The Parent Category may be more suitable for those with limited financial resources but with children earning a good income in New Zealand. The Parent Retirement Category is ideal for those with significant assets looking for investment opportunities.
Certainty:
The Parent Retirement Category offers a predictable path, provided the financial requirements are met. The Parent Category's ballot system introduces an element of uncertainty.
Timeline:
The Parent Retirement Category may offer a faster route for those who can meet the investment criteria, while the Parent Category's timeline can vary depending on the selection process.
Long-term plans:
The Parent Retirement Category requires a significant financial commitment to New Zealand, which may align with plans for permanent settlement. The Parent Category might be more suitable for those seeking family reunification without a major financial investment.
"New Zealand's parent immigration policies offer diverse options for different family situations and financial capacities.
The Parent Category provides an opportunity for family reunification based on the sponsor's income, but with the uncertainty of a ballot system.
The Parent Retirement Category, on the other hand, offers a more predictable path for financially independent parents willing to make a substantial investment in New Zealand.

The great work done before has surely helped to achieve this quick positive result. NZIC are really professional and know what to do when to do it and how to do it. I would like to thank them again for their help and support. Thank you. Kind Regards.
Anna was worth her weight in gold---she was fantastic at helping me format my CV and search for jobs that suited my skill set. In the end, I got a great job in a great city. Carsten and his team were very thorough and helpful when it came time to apply for and get our visas. They are now helping us with our resident visas, and I'm certain that the process will be the same. I'd recommend them highly.
NZIC guided me all the way through getting my first work visa to permanent residency. Their job seeking support was key when I first arrived in NZ, communication was always easy and clear. I'm very thankful for their help and definitely recommend their services.
