if you study for at least two consecutive years in New Zealand, and study for at least 30 weeks in each year.
If you don’t study for two consecutive years or don’t study for at least 30 weeks in each year,

you will continue to be eligible for a three-year open work visa.

Workers
I hold an open post-study work visa, how will these changes affect me?
저는 오픈워크비자를 소지하고 있습니다. 저의 상황에 변경되는 것은 어떤것들이 있을까요?
If your open work visa is due to expire before the changes take effect on 26 November 2018,
you can apply for an employer assisted post-study work visa before 26 November 2018.
You will need a job offer relevant to your qualification to apply for this. If you want to, you will be able to apply for a variation of conditions
to have the employer conditions removed from your work visa when the changes come into effect on 26 November 2018.
This means the job and employer stated on your work visa would be removed, so you do not have to contact Immigration New Zealand
if you change jobs or employers in the future. If your open work visa expires after 26 November 2018, you will be eligible to apply for a further
two-year open work visa when these changes take effect in November.
I hold an employer assisted post-study work visa, how will the changes affect me?
저는 고용계약 취업비자를 가지고 있습니다. 저의 상황에 변경되는 것은 어떤것들이 있을까요?
From 26 November 2018, you will be able to apply for a variation of conditions to have the employer conditions removed from your work visa.
This means the job and employer stated on your work visa would be removed, so you do not have to contact Immigration New Zealand if you
change jobs or employers in the future. This is your choice. You only need to apply for a variation of conditions if you plan to change your job,
employer, or location of work. If you plan to stay in your existing job, you do not need to change your visa.
Partners
As a student, am I able to support my partner’s work visa?
학생으로써, 저희 배우자의 취업비자를 지원할 수 있나요?
You can support your partner’s work visa application if you are studying a Level 7 or 8 qualification provided the qualification is specified on the
Long Term Skill Shortage List, or a Level 9 or 10 qualification. If your partner has dependent children, they will be eligible for fee free primary
and secondary schooling. People studying at levels 4 to 6 are not able to support their partner’s work visa application, but their partner can
apply for a visa in their own right.
I plan to study a Level 8 qualification and will apply before the end of the year, am I able to support my partner’s work visa?
저는 레벨8 학위를 수료할 계획이고,연말전에 신청할 예정입니다.
저의 배우자의 취업비자가 지원이 가능한가요?
If you and your partner have applications accepted for processing by Immigration New Zealand

you can support your partner’s work visa. If you apply on or after 26 November 2018, you will only be able to support your partner
if your qualification is on the Long Term Skill Shortage list. You and your partner must also meet all normal visa requirements.
Can my partner still get a work visa after I have finished my study?
제가 학위를 마친 후에도 여전히 제 배우자가 취업비자를 받을 수 있을까요?
Post-study work visa holders are able to support their partners for work visas, provided they meet usual partnership requirements. In turn,
dependent children are eligible for student visas and are regarded as domestic students for the purpose of all tuition fees at primary and
secondary schools for the period of the parent’s work visa.
