Travelling to New Zealand on visa waiver while work visa is pending

score:3

Accepted answer

You will probably be fine with your plans. Immigration New Zealand allows visitors to change their visa status while inside the country. After your wife's registration paperwork is complete, she can apply for a work visa.

Apply to stay longer

If you're already in New Zealand and have a visa you can reapply for the same visa or apply for a different one.

As long as you arrive in the country with proof of return or onward travel, I wouldn't expect any difficulties.
