NZQA
 

Hi all,
Just a quick one, after only 3 weeks, my qualifications came back from the NZQA, and i have been awarded a level 4 certificate!!!!:thumbsup:
So the next step is the Plumbers, Gas and Drain Layers Board for registration.
and on the same day, the results of the dogs rabies blood test came back perfect too!!!
A good day!:eek:
The house is coming along and i might even have a private sale for that aswell!!!!
Regards

Hi Annamichael,
The first thing we did was go to one of the immigration expose day, they are held regularly all over the country, check out downunderlive.co.uk, tickets are about a tenner, take as much info about yourself as poss and they will give you an idea if you should apply to emigrate or not.
there are all other companies there too like pet transport, moving companies financial advice companys etc
Get there early!!!!!!!! ha ha it can get busy.

we subscribed to Australian and New Zealand magazine which is a great read, monthly.

For us, i wanted to make sure we had as little grief as poss with the paperwork side so we signed up with an immigration consultant.
We chose the immigration group based in chester and NZ, they are registered with the NZ government and have to work within strict guidelines.
So far they have been excellent!!!!, if we have ever needed any thing we just call them.
A lot of people on this site say you can do the paperwork yourself without the need of an agent, but this is the route we took.
you can get all the forms you need from the nz.gov website.
the people on this site are helpfull and will help with the forms,
Stick to offical government sites for the correct info.
Which ever route you take, its not a fast process, its not cheap, and can be worrying, but it should be worth it in the end!!!!!
best of luck with it all and if you need a chat then just drop me a message,
kindest regards Chris
