What important financial, accommodation, insurance or maintenance responsibilities apply?

The checked official sources did not provide enough route-specific evidence to confirm the financial, accommodation, insurance or maintenance requirements.

How does the application work at a high level, what rights does the family member receive, how long does the status last, and how can it become independent or longer-term where officially stated?

The visa lasts for the duration of the partner's military visa; the holder may work in New Zealand without a job offer. The official source does not state the application process or a path to longer-term status.
