New Zealand - Working Holiday Visa -EXTENSION


Working Holidaymaker Extension Visa



If you are in New Zealand on a working holiday visa and you are able to show you have undertaken three months or more of seasonal work in the horticulture and viticulture industries during your working holiday, you may apply for the Working Holidaymaker Extension Visa. Successful applicants will be granted a visa valid for three months from the date of approval. The visa will have the same conditions as the original work visa, except it will not have further travel conditions.


How do I apply?

If you think you are eligible, you should:



* fill in the SSE Work Visa Application (INZ 1153) PDF
* pay the correct fee
* attach evidence of your employment in the horticulture and viticulture industries, such as letters from your employers and Inland Revenue Department statements
* provide evidence you have an outward ticket, or sufficient funds to buy one
* send the application to the nearest Immigration New Zealand branch as this type of visa cannot be applied for online.



Please note, applicants for Working Holidaymaker Extension visas do not have to provide medical or X-ray certificates regardless of the duration of their stay in New Zealand, unless specifically asked for by an immigration officer.
