How to Sponsor your family into New Zealand Part 4: What is an acceptable standard of health?


Getting to New Zealand, NZIS & Immigration issues

by Avalon       


Your parents have to be reasonably healthy in order to emigrate to New Zealand, and Immigration New Zealand has what is called an “acceptable standard of health” that they need to have.

There are certain medical conditions that are automatically deemed to show that you do not have an acceptable standard of health when you want to emigrate to New Zealand. These are known as Appendix 10 Conditions and are:
• HIV infection
• Hepatitis B surface antigen positive, with abnormal liver function
• Hepatitis C, RNA positive, with abnormal liver function
Malignancies of solid organs and haematopoietic tissue, including past history of, or currently under treatment. Exceptions are:
o treated minor skin malignancies (not melanoma)
o malignancies where the interval since treatment is such that the probability of cure is > 90%, e.g.: early stage (I & IIA) breast cancer at 5 years; low risk
o prostate cancer at 5 years; early stage (Dukes A & B1) colorectal cancer at 5 years; childhood leukaemia at 5 years
• Solid organ transplants, excluding corneal grafts more than 6 months old
• Chronic renal failure or progressive renal disorders
• Diseases or disorders such as osteoarthritis with a high probability of arthroplasty in the next four years
• Central Nervous System disease, including motor neurone disease, complex partial seizures, poorly controlled epilepsy, prion disease, Alzheimer’s and other dementia, and including paraplegia and quadriplegia
• Cardiac disease including ischaemic heart disease, cardiomyopathy or valve disease requiring surgical and/or other procedural intervention
• Chronic obstructive respiratory disease with limited exercise tolerance and requiring oxygen
• Genetic or congenital disorders: muscular dystrophies, cystic fibrosis, thalassaemia major, sickle cell anaemia if more than one sickle crisis in 4 years, severe haemophilia, and severe primary immunodeficiencies
• Severe autoimmune disease, currently being treated with immuno-suppressants other than prednisone
• In a person up to the age of 21 years, a severe (71-90 decibels) hearing loss or profound bilateral sensori-neural hearing loss
• In a person up to the age of 21 years, a severe vision impairment with visual acuity of 6/36 or beyond after best possible correction, or a loss restricting the field of vision to 15-20 degrees
• In a person up to the age of 21 years, a severe physical disability, where they are unable to stand and walk without support, and cannot independently dress, eat, hold a cup, or maintain their stability when sitting.

So basically – if you have any of those conditions: you are not considered healthy enough to Emigrate to New Zealand.

If you don’t have any of those conditions – you may not be in the clear yet – as you can also be told your health is not acceptable if Immigration New Zealand (INZ) believe (and more importantly can show) that your health is likely to cost more than $25,000 to the New Zealand Health service.

There are two sections to this bit – one if you have an acute condition (something that lasts a relatively short time and is treatable) in which case they want to know if you will cost $25,000 over 4 years. The other is if you have a chronic condition (lasts a long time, and probably isn’t curable – but manageable), in which case they want to know if you will cost the $25,000 over the length of the condition.

If INZ and it’s Medical assessors cannot show clearly that you are likely to cost over $25,000 to the New Zealand Health Service, or that you have an Appendix 10 Medical Condition – then you have an acceptable standard of health.

If you are assessed as having an unacceptable standard of health, the application for residency has to be declined on that basis. Your only option then is to apply for a Medical Waiver. Do make sure though that a second opinion on your Medical Assessment has been sought. You or your parents should not be turned down for a residency visa on the say so of just one Medical Assessor.  INZ also have to explicitly state why they believe you do not have an acceptable standard of health.

seems breast cancer can be exception:

Malignancies of solid organs and haematopoietic tissue, including past history of, or currently under treatment. Exceptions are:
o treated minor skin malignancies (not melanoma)
o malignancies where the interval since treatment is such that the probability of cure is > 90%, e.g.: early stage (I & IIA) breast cancer at 5 years; low risk
o prostate cancer at 5 years; early stage (Dukes A & B1) colorectal cancer at 5 years; childhood leukaemia at 5 years


I also want to apply for my mum 1 year later. Can we share the information together?
