New Zealand Extends Working Holiday Visa for UK, Canada
New Zealand has confirmed that citizens of the United Kingdom and Canada on working holiday visas can extend their stays beyond the standard one-year limit through the Working Holiday Scheme Subsequent Work Visa. According to Immigration New Zealand, UK citizens can apply for an extension to cover the remaining balance of a maximum 36-month duration, allowing them to stay in New Zealand for up to three years, provided they meet the necessary conditions.
In contrast, Canadian nationals can extend their stay by up to 11 months, totaling just under two years in New Zealand. Applications for these extensions must be submitted while the applicant is in New Zealand and before their current visa expires.
The arrangements reflect the terms negotiated between New Zealand and each partner country, with the maximum stay dependent on the working holiday agreement applicable to the individual.
