@Carey: 如果想以Partner的身份申请，需要提供以下证明：

Immigration New Zealand defines partnership as two people of the opposite or same sex, who live together in a genuine and stable relationship in any of the following:

- legal marriage
- civil union
- de facto relationship.
When you apply for a visa based on your partnership with a New Zealand visa holder or New Zealand citizen, we call that person your supporting partner.

You and your supporting partner must:
- be aged 18 or over, or if they're aged 16 or 17 years, have the consent of their parents or guardians
- have met each other before applying for a visa based on your partnership
- not be close relatives.

Partnership requirements
You must be able to show us that you're living together in a genuine and stable relationship before we can grant you a visa based on your partnership.

Living together means sharing the same home as your partner, which doesn’t include:

spending time in each other’s homes while you each maintain your own home
sharing accommodation while on holiday
flatmate arrangements.

Assessing partnership
When we assess if you meet our partnership requirements, we'll look at things like:

-how long you’ve been together
-how long you've been living together as a couple
-your living arrangements
-whether you support each other financially
-how you share financial responsibilities
-how committed you are to a life together
-whether you own property together and/or share your property
any children you have together, including your arrangements for their care
-whether you share common household tasks
-whether other people recognise your relationship.
