From this date, there will now be an option to apply for a third year long visa on the basis that the applicant has completed 6 months of work within a specific area during their second year. As a result, this means that these applications cannot be lodged until January 2020.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, the immigration intake has been released for the 2019\/2020 program year. This sees a reduction from 190,000 in 2018\/2019 to 160,000 in 2019\/2020. That said, given that only approximately 162,000 visas were granted in 2018\/2019, so the impact of this may be minimal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Investment opportunities in New Zealand continue to grow as the New Zealand Government target businesses, investors and entrepreneurs as they focus on rebuilding their economy through investment and immigration.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":45649,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"rank_math_lock_modified_date":false,"content-type":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[20],"tags":[18],"class_list":["post-7565","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-new-zealand","tag-working-visa-australia"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/absoluteimmigration.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7565","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/absoluteimmigration.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/absoluteimmigration.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/absoluteimmigration.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/absoluteimmigration.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7565"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/absoluteimmigration.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7565\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/absoluteimmigration.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/45649"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/absoluteimmigration.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7565"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/absoluteimmigration.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7565"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/absoluteimmigration.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7565"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
