Ang concern ko is since hindi pa naman talaga naka move sa OZ at babalik ba dito sa UAE, entitled na kaya tyo dun? di ba nila required yng residence mo sa OZ?
I tried calling NZ embassy at vfs dito... pero nagtuturuan sila sa kng sino ang pdeng sumagot... baka lng sakaling meron sa inyo ang may idea.
salamat ng marami. God bless. </blockquote>
Based sa NZ immig website, if you have a valid Aussie PR visa you can apply a resident visa upon arrival in NZ. With this visa you can live, work, and study in NZ indefinitely but once you leave NZ, that visa will expire, you will have to apply again every time you enter the country. So I think it doesn't matter if you're settled in Oz or not as long as you have the valid Aussie PR. đŸ™‚ Correct me if I'm wrong.

@wanderer salamat kapatid! noted... this privilege is for OZ PR holders/citizens... wala namang sinabi na "PR holders/citizens <i class="Italic">residing </i>in OZ".
What I understood from "as long as you have a valid Aussie PR", we have to do the first entry to OZ to validate our visa, then only we can use it to travel to NZ. Tama po ba?
Salamat ulit...
