For students studying in New Zealand, the New Zealand government requires you to show proof of funds for living expenses as part of your student visa application. As of the latest guidelines:

Living Expenses in New Zealand:
- NZD $20,000 per year (or NZD $1,667 per month)

This amount covers basic living costs such as accommodation, food, transport, utilities, and personal expenses. These are the required minimums set by immigration authorities, and actual expenses may vary depending on the student's city, lifestyle, and accommodation choices.

Other financial requirements:
- You also need to show proof of your first year’s tuition fees.
- Funds for a return air ticket or additional funds to cover the cost of a return trip.

How to show proof:
- Bank statements
- Loan sanction letters
- Scholarship award letters
