... that's great news, best of luck with the next stage :nice1

With regards returning your ITA... you have 4 months from the date on your ITA's covering letter to complete your application and return it back to the relevant address (in our case, New Zealand House in London).

Once again, good luck :nice1

OMG, 125 points and no job offer...so close to my stats!! This is killing me, why is everyone getting news back and not me?? :wah

In any case, congrats to you! :raebanana

[victoria24]

im still waiting as well! sent scanned transcripts on friday and CO emailed back to say I'd have a decision this week aaarrghhh!

congrats to the "special ones" :)

Nearly same status as OP (135 points, no offer), and EOI was selected on 3 December as well. Status just changed to "Decision Successful" (which I think is rather quick, actually).

So, I'd think anyone with similar points/selection dates should hear something soon (gives us all a lot of paperwork to complete over the holidays).

[BadlyDrawnGirl]

Do they change the status for all EOIs approved on the same day at the same time? (As in, if mine hasn't already switched over might I as well stop obsessively reloading the page?) :laugh

I can't believe just about everyone who was selected on the same date as me has heard something back from NZIS, except me...

Congratulations! Did they email you as well, or did you just find out by looking at the page?
(I thought they'd email confirmation - think I might end up obsessively refreshing as well....)

Hello Santa! :D
Would you move to nz with me?

no e-mails, only ITA are sent by regular mail

We found out by logging onto the NZIS website one morning. No email or any kind of contact from the London Branch. One week later, our ITA arrived by the post man. :D

My status has just changed :D - Badly Drawn Girl - your status *has* to have updated now - I know you had more points than me! :nice1

[moonglum]

Which office are all you guys applying through? I was selected Mid November, 125 points, no JO and still waiting!!! Waaaaah! :wah

Could it be coz my points is dodgy innit?

London office btw!

[Toonster]

Mine was through the London Office... Though I don't know if mine was helped through the fact that my job is in IT Sales (even though it is administration rather than straight in your face sales)

[BadlyDrawnGirl]

My status has just changed :D - Badly Drawn Girl - your status *has* to have updated now - I know you had more points than me! :nice1
Nope...no status change, no email, nothing. :(

[marybelle]

We found out by checking the web site, our ITA turned up the next day.

Those of you still waiting, don't give up, keep checking...I would have thought the status will change as each CO gets through their work load so you could still be in the pipe line.

Congrats to those approved and good luck to those still waiting.

[susanty]

mine is from Bangkok branch office.
before the status changed, he asked information regarding my bachelor degree and NZQA full-report. And I also did not receive any email since then, just got the 'decision successful' from the website.
now....waiting the post man to come
