Our visas have arrived! Got the passports with the blue stickers through the post today. Yippee!!!
They got section 18A attached which is slightly annoying as our job offer is in Northland and we want to live in Southland or Otago. Bit far for commuting...
Now we're waiting for the house sale to go through. Solicitor said he hopes to exchange by the end of next week. Then we'll have three weeks to completion,which for us means three weeks to sort everything out: book the flights for the day after completion, book a container for completion day, do all the packing and list-making (we're self-shipping),sort out all the organisational stuff like banks and utilities and that, say goodbye to everyone. Will three weeks be a bit short to get everything done?! (Most of our friends say it's way too short and we're completely mad...)
Anyway: Yippee!!!

Well done, you're nearly on your way. I hope your exchange goes smoothly - more smoothly than ours did! I think 3 weeks is do-able.

Congratulations, well done :clap !! Great feeling eh ?! Have some of these... :raebanana :raebanana

It might be hectic, but IMO it would be anyway, no matter how much time you have. This way it's short and sweet, right ;) ??

Good luck !

We also 'did it all' in 3 weeks. We got our passports back with nice blue stickers in the morning, and had flights booked by lunchtime....3 weeks later we were on our way....
