Wow, thanks yous guys, all those wishes of good luck, I didn't expect any ! Has warmed the cockles of my heart!

Does anyone know if NZIM look at the EOI in detail to see we are a lovely family with 3 clever kids who will contribute magnificently to NZ economy in time !!?? Seriously do they consider personal circumstances at all?

[Rusty]

Sorry, I don't think they do - although it was my secret dream for 5 months :laugh
It seems to be a number on a computer until it is picked, then you become a person.
I think I puy this on another thread, but 2 weeks ago there were only 447 eoi's left in the pool. It is usually over 800 left after a selection. Wish you the best luck.
Don't stay up all night waiting...

Rusty,
Thanks for good wishes; how do you know how many are left in the pool? couldn't see it anywhere on NZIM site...

When they make a draw they give a fact sheet on pdf, this gives a lot of info.
I have an excel spreadsheet with all of the draw info from Jan 2006 onwards (yes I know, a nerd! but I had to do something to keep me going - I studied it looking for any hope :roll ) I can send you a copy if you want - pm me your email - or if the mods want to find a way I'll put it on the site.
It went to 115 points this week, sorry, but like we did, look on the bright side (difficult), you are currently the equal top ranked applicant in the pool.;)
Keep trying.
Dave

Just checked, 454eoi's left.

[Carey]

Thanks for that! I'll pm you. Shush, don't tell anyone but I've got an interview tonight by phone so it may all be academic anyway, alth' I have my doubts! But keeping positive, who knows!?

[JoanneG]

Thanks Joanne, wasn't quite enough 'good lucks' though! more needed next time especially as my dream job has just been advertised. Just got to persuade them I'd be absolutely invlauable!
