Our assessment of your application
We have completed a first assessment of your application. Before we make a decision on your application we would like to give you an opportunity to provide us with further information:
We note from our records that you had previously applied for work visas and had been working in New Zealand. You last applied for a work visa in February 2011. After it was declined in April, you applied for this student visa. Your previous immigration history and work visa applications showed your intention to work in New Zealand. As such, we are concerned that you may not be a genuine student and that you applied for a student visa which will have work conditions in order to work in New Zealand.
