I need a little info before in contact NZ immigration.
Hi all
At present I have my visa all sorted but having problems selling the house due to this credit crunch. All the assets are also tied up in the house and feeling a little stuffed due to the U.S.A banking fiasco.
I only have four mouths on left on my visa dose any one think I try and ask for an extension on the visa now? Or will they say NO and I will have to start the process again.
If it gets to that stage how easy is it to achieve the visa again, as I am now 49 and not getting any younger.
1. Do I have to start from stage 1 (EOI)?
2 will they start me from my visa application
3 will it be harder to get through
4 any other helpful hints will be most grateful
Just to thank to all who send comments

I know some people have flown to NZ for a quick holiday just to validate their visas,is this an option? Other than that cannot help. I am in the same boat having to sell a house but have only just received PR so have a bit longer to go.

Just to say hubbie who is principle applicant is 50 this Nov so trying also to get everything sorted soon. Do you have a job offer, etc. We are in Shirley, Solihull also.

Well I’ve been emailing the possible new boss and trying to keep him up to speed. Had nothing back yet so I hope all is well on the job front.
As I going as a gas fitter/ electrician I just hope and pray his business is doing boomingly well a bit selfish I know so I will just keep no praying. Thanks for the comment
Ps have you told NZ immigration yet if so how did you get on ?
