How much money do I need to show for a New Zealand student visa?
You must evidence funds for tuition plus living costs for each year of study, or an acceptable sponsor. The checker confirms your statements and sponsorship letters cover the required amount for your course length.
Does the checker cover the Accredited Employer Work Visa?
Yes. When you select a New Zealand work visa the checklist adds AEWV-specific items — the accredited employer job offer and supporting evidence — and validates them against the published requirements.
Will it tell me if my New Zealand visa documents are missing anything?
Yes. You get a per-item pass, warn or fail breakdown and an overall readiness score, so you can see exactly which documents are missing or weak before you apply.
