If my OH got a job offer, which I put on our ITA, and when we got over there it did not work out. How long would we be tied into this job, can he leave and look for another job.

Regards

That would be subject to any restrictions immigration put in place. They normally put three months in place before allowing you to move on

Usually - and check your stamps for this, the NZIS require that after the three months and before seven (or is it 9?) months you must submit evidence to them that you have worked for those three months for the employer. You have to do the donkey work there - they will not investigate you on that (unless you have tried to con them) and you'll be asked for a letter from the employer, we provided one and then they asked for bank statements to back up what the letter said (in spite of it being from the head of GSE for the whole of the West Auckland Region with their DDI, fax, email and every other contact on the letterhead - the NZIS did not follow it up that way!!). So we did that and lo and behold 10 days later 2 years returning residency permits - thank you NZIS!!
I'd echo the advice and tough it out as PR is worth it! Good luck!
