AI receptionist for licensed immigration advisers
The short answer
Last updated
For licensed immigration advisers
"My visa expires next week." They're calling from another time zone.
Immigration clients are often anxious, sometimes offshore, and calling at all hours. Only licensed advisers can give immigration advice, so every call needs careful handling.
- Panicked visa-expiry calls come in at odd hours
- Offshore clients call from other time zones
- Callers want a quick answer to "which visa should I apply for?"
- Immigration NZ request deadlines create urgent calls
How FirstVoice fixes it
FirstVoice answers around the clock, takes the details you need and flags deadlines. It never gives immigration advice.
- Asks the current visa type, expiry date, and whether they're in NZ or offshore
- Takes their time zone and preferred language
- Takes any Immigration NZ letter and its response deadline, and flags close deadlines to you straight away
- Never gives immigration advice, and books a consultation with a licensed adviser instead
- Can text a document checklist link, and takes employer accreditation enquiries
