Re: Silver Fern Visa 2011 & also now for 2012
Hi There,
I started completing my online application form for the SFV a few weeks ago and now I want to complete it ASAP so I can be ready for the lottery that is submitting a payment on April 27th.
The problem is that now for some reason I cannot access my saved incomplete form through the online portal, I can see that it exists but I can't find any way to access the part of the site where I can complete the actual application itself??
If anyone can provide any help I would be most grateful
Cheers

I would ideally like to complete the form before 10am on April 27th to stand a chance of being able to submit it before the 300 quota is used up!

Hi,
I'm going to apply for the Silver fern visa for 2012. I want to have everything ready to send so I can submit my application as quickly as possible when it opens. Does anyone know what information I need to submit with my application? Do I need to just fill out my contact details and pay, and then they ask for further documents if I'm get through or is there more information/proof needed when I first apply?
If anyone has advice or information it would be really helpful!
Cheers.

Evidence you will need after you apply
If your online application is accepted, you will receive an email from us to let you know which documents we need, and where to send them. Unless indicated otherwise, you should send in certified copies of your documents. These documents include:
Passport
This must be the original passport you intend to travel with. It must be valid for at least three months beyond your intended stay in New Zealand.
Evidence of funds
This can be bank statements, travellers’ cheques, or credit card statements showing sufficient credit. Statements must be under your name and show your own funds. The minimum amount required to support yourself is NZ$4,200.
Evidence of English language ability
You must submit an IELTS certificate confirming a band score of 6.5 or higher. If you meet the English language requirements in any other way, you must send the relevant evidence. For example, if you meet the English language requirement because you completed a recognised qualification taught entirely in English, you must show evidence that you completed the qualification AND that it was entirely taught in English (such as a letter from the institution where the course was taught).
Qualification
This must be your qualification itself or a letter from your educational institution. If the original document is not in English, it must be translated by a recognised translation service.
If required, you must also include a NZQA assessment of your qualification.
If required, you must also include evidence that you have occupational registration or can obtain the registration (eg a letter from the New Zealand registration body).
Evidence of work experience
If you hold a trade qualification, you must show that you have at least two years of experience relevant to that trade qualification. This can be your old employment agreement(s), employment records, or a letter from your former employer(s), with details of the position you held or the work you did. Other evidence may also be considered.
Medical and police certificates
The Medical and Chest X-ray Certificate (INZ 1007) PDF, and any police certificate you submit, must be original documents.
For more details, see the Silver Fern Job Search: questions and answers.
