Works but MUCH too expensive
I used this website for getting an evisa for New Zealand. I mistakenly thought this was the official New Zealand site for getting a visa, and I was wrong (I was panicking a little since I was getting this VERY last minute and did not do my usual due diligence) The good new is that this site appears to be legitimate as I got my evisa. The bad news is that they charged me $234 US for this and it only costs $71 US if you do it directly. And this service is slower by one day as compared to working directly with the New Zealand government office. The best option for getting a visa is using the official New Zealand app (NZeTA) so that you can track the progress of your application. You should plan for this taking up to 3 days.
