Hi beauty, I believe it is NZ$1000 for each month.

hi beauty,
it's ok for your husband to sponsor you for a visitor's visa as long as the person he previously sponsored did not have any bad record in nz. for example if that person overstayed here, immigration might think that you will too.

even if that person he previously sponsored is still here with a valid visa, your husband can still sponsor you. he just needs to show in his bank account that he has sufficient funds (i think its' $400/month of stay, if i'm not mistaken).

i believe the show money the agency wants you to show in your account is just a way to prove to immigration that you have assets in your country and therefore do not have plans to overstay in nz.

hope these helped.
