Hi

Where and how do we apply for EOI. What if I am not selected. Will I be allowed to apply again after some time.

Is degree and experience from India considered for points.

How do we go about getting a job offer. I applied to a few ads. but they all asked if I have a work permit for NZ. How do I get it. If we visit NZ are we allowed to look for work. Will the employers not still ask if we have a work permit.

So many questions...

Thanks.

Hi Meg,
You don't mention what your occupation is so i can only advise about mine and hubby's.

EOI the NZIS webste is where you apply or you can send for the paper version but if you do this you are expressing interest in permanent residency.
This is done on a points basis and you can also check how many points your likely to have on tha nzis website. this is also where you can check if your degree is valid/ recognised.
You do not need to have ajob but have to have over 100 points to submit an EOI
If not selected you can reapply as your circumstances change - I know this cos I have.

Once you've logged and EOI you will be considered and if successful you will recieve an invitaition to apply for residency for this you will need medicals, police check, and proof of your quals and ??? an amount of cash if you do not have a job offer( I may be wrong on that one)

Do you intend to become a resident or just go to work there for a while??
I'm sure other members can give advice and also the website address for NZIS is below

Hope this helps
Love
