Hello again all,

We got drawn first time on 20th March with Job Offer, as anyone got any idea how long it takes before we hear anything else?

Many thanks

4weeks, was right up to the commitment time...

Thanks for the quick reply,lucky for us we are only planning on coming over next Feb so I won't start panicking yet!

If you are under pressure with the job offer then you can apply for a temp work visa in parallel, we got ours in 5-days then let the PR play out in its time...

We have to do it this way as job offer is with NZ Navy in Devenport and it's a little different I think but thanks for advice.

Ah, so no pressure then, except if N Korea kicks off :-)

Hi. We have submitted our Work visa app for the OH and the partner and student visas for means the kids today. Could we really know in as little as 5 days? MyOH has a job offer as an architect in ChCh.

We were selected from the EOI Pool on 3rd April. Not had the ITA yet

Temp visa is that fast possibly but Pr isn't

Excellent well done. On yer way then how exciting.
I heard from the WTR case officer Wednesday needing degree & diploma certificates as they couldn't accept NZQA PAR as evidence !?! and they wanted a better presented work offer. Got them back yesterday..,
