We have four passport all with BLUE STICKERS in them. Actually two blue stickers in each, I had not realised that you get the RRV at the same time - duh. :D:D:clap

Ours don't say anything about onward journey waived, but then I suppose you don't need that with a residence visa?

Now must get back to shredding and chucking out junk....

Having just received ours also, what does the RRV part really mean??

I think (should probably know by now :roll) once you arrive an immigration officer at the airport stamps your passport with a residence permit. Then if you wish to leave the country during the next two years for holiday etc, the RRV allows you to travel to NZ and get back in - which is handy :nice1

Fab news Mels... I'm so glad they arrived in the end!! Such a relief... :cheers
We keep looking at ours too... just checking they're still there!

Here are more well deserved nanas :raebanana:raebanana:raebanana

Have you gone into 'list creation' overdrive yet?? I hear it's followed by packing mania... HELP!

Saskia - list mania hit a couple of weeks ago, I've now hit 'how on earth are we going to be ready in time, 4.5 weeks left' :exit

I have just spent all morning jet washing wooden garden furniture, golf stuff and other bits and pieces so now my right hand has the shakes, can't lift a glass :no

A big thank you for all the support we have received from this forum, it certainly helps and is less fattening than chocolate :yes

So onwards to the next stage and best wishes and good luck to everyone else on this wild ride :yes
