My Police Clearance may DELAY everything...
Today we got our Invitation to apply for residence :thumbsup:
We were a little confused as we thought we'd be given an application for a work visa instead and then apply for residence later :confused: The only unfortunate thing about applying for Residence is that the application process takes LONGER! :frown: My husband has been offered a good job position but they want him to start in December, this may now not happen :unsure: I've been living in the UK for 8 and a half years but NZ immigration require a police clearance for any other country I am a citizen of since the age of 17yrs. I'm orginally from South Africa and of course most things involving South Africa seem to be a nighmare. The waiting time on a Police Clearance is between 6-8 weeks!!! My husband is so worried as this may ruin things for us :( Does anyone know if my husband could carry on with his application for residence in the meantime and I can continue with mine once in New Zealand? I'm so worried that my police clearance may cause us massive delays :blink: :confused: |

Check NZ Immigration website, it would probably be a "Work to Residents" visa that you need to look at. Someone else on the forum would probably know more. On the issue of police certificates, I came accross a service that someone does for people who need police clearance certificates from SA. The website is www.dkpinvestigations.com Good luck. |
