Default Advice please

Hello everyone,

My partner, newborn and I are looking to emigrate to NZ in around 12 - 15 months or so
<snip personal info>
Questions regarding Visa applications:
  1. We have some credit debt in the UK - will this be taken into consideration for the visa application? We have vast savings between us but we're hoping to just pay the debt monthly rather than a lump sum.
  2. Ideally, we would like to secure a position before migrating. With that in mind, is it worth starting the process earlier and continue to look for jobs?
  3. Is the best option to apply for a joint visa?
  4. Is it worth using an agent to aid in the visa process?
  5. We are planning on getting married in the next couple of years. Would it be beneficial to do this before starting the visa application?
Do you have any advice for job searches within the aforementioned industries?

Thanks in advance.
