The Challenge:

The applicant had a complicated visa history, including a previous student visa rejection and a period of unlawful stay in New Zealand. Immigration New Zealand (INZ) raised serious concerns about her genuine intent when she applied for a multiple-entry visitor visa to reunite with her children.
Our Solution:

We carefully investigated the applicant's past visa issues and uncovered the personal circumstances behind her overstay. By reframing her background in a lawful and compassionate context, we drafted a legally reasoned response to INZ’s concerns. We emphasized her improved situation and strong family ties as justification for multiple-entry access.
The Outcome:

The visitor visa was granted with a three-year multiple-entry condition—despite the applicant’s adverse history—demonstrating that credible legal representation and narrative clarity can rebuild trust with immigration authorities.
Highlight:

Successfully overcame the barrier of a prior overstay and rejection to secure a long-term visitor visa through legal advocacy and narrative rehabilitation.
