Hi Everyone,

We've searched for a thread and can't find one for all the November 2008 applicants - so I thought we'd start one!

After washing up the Sunday dinner pots and pans, the whole family 2.4 + dog did the deed..... WE'VE CLICKED THE BUTTON !!!!!

EOI Submitted today!!

It'll be good to share experiences with everyone who has submitted (or will be submitting) your EOI in November 2008.

We are off to Burnham, south of Christchurch, fly out March, it's all very exciting and emotional.

iwannagonow

Christchurch is supposed to be lovely..I've never been though! We're hoping to go January...to Papamoa, Bay of Plenty.

You're right in saying it's a very exciting & emotional time...never known anything like it!

Good luck with everything

Hi teebrown, carolineshewan, iwannagonow & squiddley !!!

Many thanks to all of you for your notes of 'good luck'!!
We are hoping to settle in/around Rotorua as OH has a job offer in the town.

Looking at all of your 'signatures' the VISA process moves quite quickly! Lets hope we sell the house as fast as the immigration people! mmmm

Thank you, I noticed your beautiful Boxer in your pic, we too have a lovely Red Boxer, unfortunately old age and arthritus got the better of him last month and he passed away, they are the best dogs in the world, and we will get another when we get to NZ.

O dear! I'm sorry to hear about your dog, it's heartbreaking when they go isn't it...I'm sure he will be smiling down on you from 'doggy heaven'...they are such a happy looking breed of dog aren't they?!!

Hi Becky

We found out last night after chatting to Kimi-Deacon that we missed the EOI selection date by one day !! Got to wait now until the next one end of month???

My OH was selected from the EOI pool at the end of November. We're hoping the 'do-it-yourself' EOI was filled out correctly..

What can we be doing whilst we are waiting for the ITA ??
Please could someone who has just jumped through the ITA hoops give me a list of documents that will be needed. I understand that some / all of them need a signature to get them certified. Just one copy of everything ?


On another note, there must be loads of us NOVEMBER EOI applicants out there! What stage are you at?? It would be super to hear your stories!

Cheers Steelblue OH
