INZ student visa processing update
Immigration New Zealand’s (INZ) Palmerston North Area Office (PNAO) is coming out of the peak processing period for onshore student visa applications, with the last of the March visa applications still to be processed.
The standard processing timeframe for a student visa application is 20 working days for an online application, and 25 working days for a paper-based application.
Kimberley Polata, PNAO Head of Operations, said her team is working on applications received within the last 20 days and is committed to clearing these applications by the end of April.
Progress has already been made towards this, with PNAO sending out nearly 1,800 visa decisions in the last week alone, she said
“There are approximately 1,100 visa applications where further documentation or information has been requested from the student, and this is required in order to compete the application.”
Ms Polata asks that education providers check in with their students who are still waiting for their visa decision and ask them to check their email and online applications for communication from INZ.

Consultation to further strengthen the Code of Practice
The consultation is part of efforts to continue supporting education providers to deliver quality education to international students.
The Code requires all schools and tertiary providers enrolling international students to take all reasonable steps to protect international students and provide a positive experience that supports their educational achievement.
Since the new Code of Practice took effect on 1 July 2016, some Code signatories and sector bodies have provided feedback on certain matters.
The Ministry wants to hear from schools, tertiary organisations, sector peak bodies and international students and their families on these issues and possible ways to address them.
Consultation will end on 29 August. All submissions will be reviewed and recommendations made to improve the Code.
