Well my dad and step mum moved 3 years ago and moved to wellington so we will be heading there to stay with them till we get settled.
Can i just ask as i am getting my application together, did u use folders, i have so much paperwork (most of it evidence of relationship)
i have wedding invitation and flight stubs which i am thinking about putting in a small envelope to keep together as part of the proof of relationship evidence. can i do that?

I have friends in wellington - they love it there.

My husband had a job offer and the company used an agent to deal with our application - they filled in the forms sent them over to us to sign and told us to send them on to immigration in the folder he had provided, so we did use a folder that just kept everything together.

We are going to Auckland! We have the shippers coming in on monday to pack everything up :eek:

Hi, Yeah guess its the same for everyone not like moving to spain, 30hr flight away and not cheap to get there but we have wanted to do it for years so has to be done, can always come home if we don't like it.

I have added Robinsons to my list not got them.

Well good luck with your move, Keep updating ur progress on here, always helps reading what others are experiencing.

Rachel :-)

Hi Rachel,

We sent it on the 21st Dec and they emailed on the 24th to say that 3 of them had been issued but a prob with one, that got sorted after christmas and we received them back on 7th Jan - I hope you don't have to wait too long - ours is a WTR visa so I think this may be a bit quicker - I'm not 100% sure though :fingerscrossed:
