we expected it to be busy… given it’s the last in person week. Given that info so people know what to expect. We have found the detailed posts most useful for us here in the community so wanted to do the same for others.
New Zealander here and we decided as a family to apply elsewhere due to the cost. We have friends who got stung $1,000 per person (including kids as young as two) for tourist visas in NZ.
