Health Insurance Supports With The NZ 5-year Parent Boost Visa
What’s happening?
From 29 September, the Government is opening applications for the new 5-year Parent Boost Visa which will allow eligible parents of New Zealand citizens or residents to live in the country for up to 10 years, provided they continue to meet all eligibility requirements.
Applicants must hold at least 1 year of health insurance that covers:
- emergency medical care (minimum NZD $250,000 a year)
- repatriation
- return of remains
- cancer treatment (minimum NZD $100,000).
- They must also maintain valid health insurance for the entire duration of their stay in New Zealand.
Family connection is so important for overall wellbeing. We are to support reuniting more families and protecting the sustainability of NZ healthcare system.
