Under the current arrangements, student visa holders and their dependent family members (except masters by research or doctoral degree student dependents who can work full time), can work a maximum of 20 hours per week during the term once the course has commenced, and unlimited hours when the course is not in session. Under the proposed arrangement, the New Zealand student visa and work permit holder’s work would be measured as 40 hours per fortnight during any fortnight in the course session. A fortnight means a period of 14 days commencing on a Monday.
