How does the FTS work? | 新西兰留学专用帐户方案如何运作? |
For a student visa application, a sum of money is deposited into a remittance account in China for the purpose of studying in New Zealand. If the application is approved the funds will then be transferred to the New Zealand education provider to cover the tuition payment and to a New Zealand bank to cover the living costs of the student. The bank in New Zealand will then manage the students’ bank account by allowing a limited amount of money to be withdrawn each month to cover living costs. | 学生签证申请人将留学费用存入设在中国的专用帐户。如果申请获得批准,该帐户下的部分资金将被汇往特定的新西兰教育机构用以支付学费,部分将被汇至学生在新西兰银行开设的个人账户作为生活费。新西兰银行通过每个月定额放款来管理该帐户以供学生支付在新西兰的生活费用。 |
Who can apply for this scheme? | 新西兰留学专用帐户方案如何运作? |
Any applicant in the Beijing, Shanghai and Hong Kong branch catchment areas of China is eligible. | 包括北京、上海及香港办公室领区的所有申请人都具备资格。 |
Which immigration offices accept the FTS? | 哪个移民办公室接受新西兰留学专用帐户? |
All three Immigration New Zealand branches in China─ Beijing, Shanghai and Hong Kong ─ accept the FTS as evidence of the student’s financial standing. | 新西兰移民局在中国设立的三个办公室,包括北京、上海和香港,都可以接受新西兰留学专用帐户作为学生的经济能力证明。 |
Where can I apply for the remittance account in China? | 在哪里可以申请中国的新西兰留学专用帐户? |
Chinese students can apply for FTS accounts at approved banks in China. A list of the approved FTS accepting branches is available under the introduction of each FTS scheme. | 符合要求的申请人可以经由批准银行申请留学专用账户。批准银行及网点清单在各专用账户介绍下分别提供。 |
Which banks in New Zealand can I withdraw my money from? | 在新西兰哪家银行可以取款? |
Only the ANZ bank at this stage, but we are open to considering other New Zealand banks with a base in China. | 目前只有澳新银行。但是我们正在考虑与其他新西兰银行中国分行进行合作。 |
What are the minimum and maximum amounts of money required for the remittance account? | 新西兰留学专用帐户的最低和最高汇款额是多少? |
RMB 150,000 or NZ$30,000 is the minimum amount required to open a remittance account for one year of planned study in New Zealand. The account balance should be maintained proportionately (on a pro-rata basis) to the original FTS deposit amount and length of time planned to be covered by FTS deposit. For example, a three-year FTS deposit of 450,000 RMB should have a minimum of 300,000 RMB in the first year, and 150,000 RMB in the second year, held with the bank in China. Those applicants whose intended study plan in New Zealand is fully covered financially by the amount deposited in the FTS will not be required to provide additional banking documentation, although certain conditions apply. Students with long-term study plans may be asked to provide evidence of their family’s on-going ability to cover international education costs in New Zealand. Those applications partially covered by the FTS may be required to provide additional financial documentation. | 计划在新西兰学习一年时间需要至少存入人民币15万元或者纽币3万元。 以此为标准,留学专用账户的余额应和最初存入账户的总额以及计划用其支付在新西兰学习的年限维持相应的比例。比如,一笔期限为3年、金额为45万人民币的留学专用账户,在汇过第一年的学费和生活费后,其账户余额应有至少30万人民币,在第二年应有至少15万人民币。 尽管有某些条件需要满足,但是使用留学专用帐户支付全部留学费用的申请人无须提交其他银行材料。 有长期留学计划的学生需要提供家庭持续经济能力的证明。使用留学专用帐户支付部分留学费用的申请, 仍需提交其他资金材料。 |
Will my deposit with the bank in China earn interest? How will it be calculated? | 我在中国境内银行的留学专用账户存款能够获得存款利息吗?如何计算? |
Yes, your deposit with the bank in China will earn interest, which will be calculated at the standard interest rate. | 可以,您在中国境内银行的留学专用帐户存款将产生利息,按标准存款利率计算。 |
How long must I keep my money in this account? | 我在该帐户的存款需要存多久? |
The money remains in the account for the period of time you intend to cover the costs of your study in New Zealand. You are not allowed to use this account for any other purpose other than to cover the tuition fees and living costs. You cannot withdraw money from this account while you are studying in New Zealand. | 与您计划在新西兰学习的时间相等。该帐户只用于支付学费和生活费,不用于任何其他目的,您也不可以在新西兰学习期间从该帐户取款。 |
How can I apply for a New Zealand bank account before I go to New Zealand? | 抵达新西兰之前如何申请一个在新西兰银行的留学专用帐户? |
When you open the remittance account with the bank in China, you will be provided with an ANZ Bank account opening form. You can also download the form from the INZ website and email it to ANZ directly after your student visa has been approved in principle by INZ. ANZ will then contact you directly to inform you of your account details. | 在您向已批准的中国境内银行申请开立新西兰留学专用帐户时,中国境内银行会提供您一份新西兰澳新银行的开户申请表。您也可以从新西兰移民局的网站上下载该表格,在学生签证原则批准后直接联系新西兰澳新银行。收到申请后,澳新银行会直接跟您联系确认您的帐户详细信息。 |
Can I withdraw the deposit from the bank in China if my application is unsuccessful? | 如果我的学生签证申请没有成功的话,我可以取出预存在留学专用帐户内的存款吗? |
Yes. You can withdraw your deposit from the bank in China by showing a decline or withdrawal letter issued by INZ. | 可以,您可以持由新西兰移民局签发的拒签信或撤签信,提取您的新西兰留学专用帐户存款。 |
At what stage should I transfer my funds to New Zealand? | 什么时候我需要将资金汇到新西兰? |
You do not need to transfer your funds to New Zealand until you have received an Approve-in-principle letter from INZ. | 在您收到新西兰移民局签发的原则批准信之前,您都不需要将资金汇到新西兰。 |
What’s the minimum amount of money required for my first remittance transfer? | 第一次汇款的最低限额是多少? |
The requirements are different depending on your age. Students aged 17 and under need to make two international funds transfers.
Depending on your needs, the amount to be transferred will range from $NZ4,800 to NZ$18,000. Students aged 18 and over also need to make two international funds transfers.
The amount to be transferred will usually range from NZ$15,000 to NZ$18,000. | 不同的年龄会有不同的要求. 17岁或以下学生需安排两笔国际转汇.
依个人需要,生活费的转款额度为每年4,800 – 18,000纽币。 18岁以上学生同样需要安排两笔国际转汇。
汇款额度一般每年在15,000到 18,000 纽币间浮动。 |
How often should I transfer my money from China to New Zealand? | 我需要多久从中国汇一次款到新西兰? |
The New Zealand education provider will send you an invoice for your tuition and accommodation payment, if applicable. We suggest that you make one transfer to ANZ to cover living expenses for the year. | 如果适用,新西兰教育机构会向您发送学费和住宿费的发票。关于生活费,我们建议您每年汇一次当年份生活费。 |
How much can I withdraw from my account each month while I am in New Zealand? | 当我在新西兰时,每个月我可以从我的留学专用帐户取多少钱? |
Every month you can withdraw NZ$1,250 – NZ$1,500 from your remittance account to cover your living costs. | 每个月您可以从您在新西兰的帐户提取纽币1,250 ~ 1,500元作为生活费。 |
Does it mean that I can only access NZ$1,500 per month for my living costs in New Zealand? | 这样是否意味着每个月我只能有纽币1, 500元的生活费? |
Although you are only allowed to withdraw up to NZ$1,500 from your remittance account per month, you can still have other personal bank accounts in New Zealand. | 尽管您每个月只能从新西兰的留学专用帐户提取最多纽币 1,500元作为生活费,但是您仍然可以在新西兰开立其他个人帐户。 |
What payments can my remittance account cover? | 我可以使用留学专用帐户支付其他费用吗? |
Your remittance account can only cover your tuition fees and standard living costs of up to NZ$1,500 per month. | 您的留学专用帐户只用来支付您的学费和每月最多纽币1,500元的生活费。 |
Can I withdraw money from my remittance account for use in an emergency? | 紧急情况下,我可以从我的新西兰留学专用帐户取款吗? |
No, you can’t withdraw money from your remittance account for other purposes. You may want to have a separate bank account for use in an emergency. | 不可以。您不能从留学专用帐户取款用于其他目的。您可以另外开立一个帐户以备不时之需。 |
If I decide to leave New Zealand, how can I arrange to withdraw money in my remittance account without closing it? | 如果我决定离开新西兰,如何在不取消我的留学专用帐户的情况下取出该帐户内的余款? |
You can withdraw all the money in your remittance account if you have completed or ceased your study in New Zealand. You need a certificate confirming this, which you must apply for from the INZ branch that issued your visa. You can then take the certificate to the bank in China to arrange a refund. | 如果您已完成或结束在新西兰的学习,您可以将留学专用帐户内的余款取出。您须向给您签发签证的新西兰移民局办公室申请毕业或结业确认函,然后持移民局签发的确认函到中国的留学专用账户申请银行办理取款。 |
Are there any other financial documents that I need to provide for my visa application, if an FTS is used? | 如果我使用留学专用帐户,我还需要提交什么资金证明材料? |
Please note that INZ is able to request any further documentation they deem necessary when processing the application. INZ still requires evidence of your parent’s employment and earnings. Participation in the FTS does not mean that the application will be automatically approved. | 请注意:新西兰移民局可以在审理过程中要求学生提供任何必要的材料。除留学专用账户外,新西兰移民局还要求学生提供父母的职业及收入证明。选择新西兰留学专用帐户并不意味着签证申请可以自动获得批准。 |

前往办理之前,最好提前电话预并确定好联系人。带上将要就读院校的录取通知书(可以是语言课加专业课有条件录取的offer), 身份证,户口本到有办理此业务的出国金融部(一般为省会城市的最大支行,以湖北武汉为例,目前开通此业务仅有位于武汉汉口解放路,香格里拉酒店斜对面中信银行武汉支行),并与之签订协议,开设新西兰留学生专用账户。以学生本人名字开通账户或以父母名字开通账户均可。
办理成功之后,一式三份,银行留一份,学生本人留一份,另外一份需要随后办理签证时递交给移民局,部分中信网点同时发放ANZ 澳新银行开户申请表 (部分银行需要等到学生签证原则性批准之后发放)。澳新银行申请开户申请表,需要本人或中介联系澳新银行递交相关材料后方可开通,随后才能进一步把留学新西兰的生活费汇到学生本人在澳新银行的个人生活费账户 (一般又称“88”账户)。若有其他进一步的相关问题,欢迎联系我们。
