Hello, I have a couple of questions which I hope someone can give some advice about. Bear with me, they are a bit wordy. I am currently gathering documents for a permanent residencey visa application. My Partner is a kiwi and we have booked to head off to NZ early December and looking to head to NZ house in London in June to put in my application.

1) If the application process takes longer than expected can we still head out in December with me entering NZ on a visitors visa (which lasts 6 months) and get the visa from the embassy in NZ?

2) We have been trying for a baby and in light of the recent news about pregnant temporary residents being sent home to have their babies we were wondering if it might be a good idea to wait in case we are successful and I end up being 6 months pregnant when I arrive and they don't let me into NZ. Could this be a problem anyway as it now says that being pregnant is no longer considered appropriate standard of health...(although I've had my medical already)?

Any thoughts or experiences would be appreciated
