How To Make A Complaint

If you are not satisfied with the way a Global Visas consultant has handled your application, we would like you to let us know and give us the opportunity to deal with your concerns.

Please start by communicating your concerns and the reasons why you are not happy. Please talk honestly and openly to your consultant: we all welcome the opportunity to put things right.

If you feel awkward raising the matter in person with your consultant please put your complaint in writing and post or email it to the consultant with a copy to info@globalvisas.co.nz

We will acknowledge receipt of the complaint within 24 hours. It will be reviewed by the consultant and by our Director who will give you an initial response within 7 days. When we have reviewed the case we will suggest a meeting to try to resolve the situation to your satisfaction. We’ll arrange further meetings as necessary and keep in touch until the situation is resolved. Our goal is to have any complaint resolved within 3 weeks of it being received.


What If We Can't Agree On A Resolution?

If the case is not resolved to your satisfaction you have a range of further options open to you including a complaint to the Immigration Advisers’ Authority, the government body that oversees all registered immigration consultants operating in New Zealand.
