Re: NZ Tax Bill Introduced - UK Pensions

Thanks so much for that. Much appreciated. Do you know if the same rules apply for money transfers e.g. from a house sale?

Re: Rental references.

We asked our agent about this when we were looking. Her reply was "you got a Visa right? If Immigration are happy to let you in, that's reference enough for me"

I wouldn't worry about it too much....

Re: bringing my car

You chose right. We are bringing our car (stuff arrives in a week, you have no idea how exciting this is). It's only a couple of years old, so worth it.

Re: Moved from April 2013 Arrivals ans Departures thread

We booked with Emirates for this exact reason. Qantas do a migrant fare but only increase your luggage to 40kg. Emirates standard luggage allowance is 30kg but will increase this to 50kg if young...

Re: April 2013 Arrivals and Departures

I am VERY jealous. Why do PR Visa's take so much longer? INZ got my application on 10th December and I still don't have ours :-(

Re: April 2013 Arrivals and Departures

Just make sure they aren't in the same processing queue, I think it's only the initial application which takes longer for PR, but I may be wrong. Might be worth e-mailing your IO just to be safe x

Re: Mums and Dads - are UK baby car seats compatible with NZ cars?

If as everyone says, standards are same as UK then ALL cars from 2007 onwards will have Isofix as standard. Many car companies introduced them before then though. Fingers crossed you find something x
