Five licensed advisers,
with you until your case is decided
We plan around your longer-term goals, follow up after lodging without being asked, and deal with Immigration New Zealand directly when questions come up.
Who handles your case
<1%Fewer than 1% of licensed immigration adviser practices in New Zealand have five or more advisers. Birdview is one of them. Over 90% are a single adviser.

Documents and progress
How we work
Before lodging
We start from where you want to be in a few years, then choose this step’s visa so every application moves you towards it.
Case: an AEWV first, then the Skilled Migrant application as planned. Residence 19 months after arriving. Read the case →
After lodging
Some firms go quiet once an application is lodged. We check in with Immigration New Zealand regularly and report progress to you without being asked.
Case: an investigation and a new case officer mid-assessment. We kept following up; approved in two and a half months. Read the case →
When INZ raises concerns
Getting you to your goal is our only job. We deal with Immigration New Zealand directly and push for the best outcome for you.
Case: INZ insisted on a Chinese trade certificate. We showed why it did not apply; a five-year work visa followed. Read the case →
Compared with what is common
| Often | Birdview | |
|---|---|---|
| Who handles it | One adviser alone, start to finish | A licensed adviser and a visa assistant, checking each other |
| Planning | Only the visa in front of you | A route built around your longer-term goals |
| After lodging | You chase them for news | We check with INZ and report to you |
| After hours | No one after 5:30pm | A visa assistant until 9:30pm |
Easy to reach
Our own office building with parking out front. Come in and talk it through with an adviser face to face.
From 5:30pm to 9:30pm NZ time, a dedicated visa assistant keeps helping signed clients. That is afternoon in China, so clients there can reach us during their own working day.
Monday to Friday, NZ time, closed on public holidays.
Plenty of real cases
We started on 12 October, ran the employer accreditation and Job Check in parallel, lodged before the client’s visa expired and saved them a visitor visa. Approved a week later.
ParentsResidenceSigned 13 May, lodged 22 June, approved in principle 24 September, approved 16 October.
VisasComplex casesThe client’s extension and a second application were both declined. After he returned to China he came to us; the new application was approved within about a month, and his partner and two children followed.
