New Zealand Visa

Yes, the visa interview is not mandatory in many countries and New Zealand is one of them. They will call you for an interview if they need more information. Generally, 2 to 5 weeks is required.

Hi,
You need 6 overall and 5.5 atleast in each to apply for student visa. Rest, you may check the individual university requirements.

It is difficult to say on the basis of your IELTS score only. You must concentrate on the application submission, submit it before deadline. You cannot apply for visa without receiving admission offer from the college. 5.5 is indeed low but you can retake or get into an ESL program, you can find this out by sending a mail to the college. But, first check the college specific admission requirements and apply.

Have you appeared for PTE or IELTS? Have you done SSC or B.Ed? Have you passed class 12th?

You must apply to a college and must have received the admission offer first. It is hard to say, if you will get the visa as it will depend on your application, education background and grades and your whole profile. The university reputation also matters.

48% is too low, you need at least 55% recommended, if you are willing to study abroad.

Dear Karandeep,
With such a gap it might be difficult to get admission itself, however, suggest you apply as it won't cost you much or rather may be free also if there is no application fee for the university / college where you are applying. If you get admission then try for the visa, if the visa officer is satisfied with your explanation then you have a chance of getting a visa. I will suggest you to use the services of a good education consultant as for NZ as it will help and you will not be charged any consultation fee.
All the best!

Hi Ammy,
Can you specify your education details and gap period clearly for proper guidance? You must be well aware of the fact that you can apply for a student visa only after you have received the admission offer from a university.

Yes, you have to show your source because you have to prove them that you are eligible to spend on your daily expenses as well as your university fees, without that no one will give you the study visa.

You can try for Australia.
