How do I go about terminating my New Zealand Work Visa (WHV)?

Hey all,

My New Zealand work visa is still valid until June 2014.

I have been back in Ireland since start of November 2013
and I have to prove that I am habitually resident in
the State.

One of the conditions of claiming social welfare to be met
is that "your VISA to remain in NZ had expired at the time
you returned to the State".

Obviously too late for that but I am appealing.
I think it would look very well if I could prove that I am not
able to return to NZ, at least not as easily as booking
a one way ticket to NZ.

How do I go about nulling my WHV in NZ?

which work visa was it


you can withdraw it by sending an e-mail to workingholiday@mbie.govt.nz using the same e-mail address that you provided on your application. Your application fee will not be refunded

hey thanks for that info. It was the working holiday visa. I had activated it by being there for about 5 months
