temporary residence in US

I suggest you contact the New Zealand consulate or a lawyer in New Zealand to find out whether a parent can remove children from that jursidiction under the circumstances you describe. Since I don't understand what you mean by "temporary residence", I am unable to answer that part of your question as well as you might like. However, if she has the possiblity of employment in a professional capacity, and she is a professional, she could qualify for an H1B visa.
