Default Please Help Us.....

I realise there's probably hundreds of threads of this nature but to any of you that could help, and guide us from start to finish on the ways to move to New Zealand would be so cool and much appreciated.....

We only made he decision to try and migrate 2 days ago and are already being head bombarded.....!

My husband is a Firefighter, I seem to be learning this is going to get us nowhere!

He also has worked for Social Services for 20 year with disabled kids and troubled kids but not Social Worker Qualified....

Im a stay at home Mum that recently started to study

4 kids, 15, 11, 9, 3 and we re 37 and 34....

What are our chances ? And where do we start?

Thanks for all and any help....

Hmmmmmm........

Click the small link at the top or bottom of the page that shows:

British Expats Forum; Life Style & Culture etc etc.

Its the British Expats Forum you need to click on then scroll down to bottom of the front end page and in small letters on the rhs is the the word:

Log Out

Wouldnt worry about it too much though as the cookie on your PC will track when you return.

From the NZIS site.

Skilled Migrant Quick Check

If you are the principal applicant, complete the Quick Check below to see if you meet our prerequisites.

Answer YES or NO to the following questions:

1. Are you under 56 years of age?

2. Are you, your partner and your children all healthy?

3. Are you, your partner and your children free of major criminal convictions and not a security risk?

4. Can you competently speak, write and understand English?

5. Have you been offered a job in New Zealand?

6. Do you have a tertiary or trade qualification?

7. Do you have at least two years work experience?

If you answered YES to the first four questions AND answered YES to at least one of the last two questions, your next step is to check your possible points score.

If you did not answer YES as above, and you proceed to submit an Expression of Interest, it might not be accepted into our Expression of Interest


Good luck.

P.S.

I`m a Firefighter too.

Lucky for me the other half is a nurse.

I still am a Firefighter (retire soon, yipee)

Just guessing, but are you the same wittsend from that infamous firefighters site?

If you`re not I`ve just sent a U2U on there that will confuse someone.
