ELIGIBILITY ASSESSMENTS
1. These Terms and Conditions apply to all Clients who submit an application to be assessed for their eligibility to migrate to New Zealand. In submitting the eligibility assessment registration form, you therefore agree to be bound by these terms and conditions.
2. We will provide a written assessment of your eligibility to apply to migrate to New Zealand under all possible visa categories, followed by a telephone or email consultation with a Licensed Immigration Adviser.
3. You warrant that the information provided in the visa assessment is complete, accurate and truthful and understand that any inaccuracies or omissions could affect our assessment of your eligibility.
4. The visa assessment is based on the information you provide in the Eligibility Assessment questionnaire and on New Zealand immigration law and policy current at the time of assessment. While we attempt to give an accurate indication as to your ability to meet immigration requirements, the final decision in any immigration application rests firmly with the relevant Government immigration authority and we are therefore not responsible for the outcome of any subsequent immigration application which you may choose to make.
REFUND POLICY
In the event of an application put forward to Immigration New Zealand failing through fault or neglect of New Zealand Shores Limited staff, 100% of all fees charged directly by New Zealand Shores will be refunded to the applicant. The applicant is not eligible for refund when the applicant has provided false or misleading information, information relevant to your application has been omitted, or on failing to meet health or character requirements. Some other applications may not be eligible for refund; however, if this is the case, it will be made clear to you before any commitments or payments are made.
