Re: TFW Program changes includes capped numbers, increased fines, and increased fees

Thank you for posting those links.

Not 100% sure, but suspect this means I can't apply to renew my TWP next year when it expires. Previously I understand I could apply once, not so sure now.

Is Titirangi commutable?

Hi,

Anyone commute into the CDB from Titirangi, Auckland? Wondering what it is like? And does the train station at Glen Eden help at all, assuming it has enough car parks.

Thanks in advanced.

Re: Valuing foreign home at Point of Entry

Understood, thank you for the explanation.

Sounds like it could be a <5 year thing, unless any gains are minimal.

Re: Valuing foreign home at Point of Entry

My mistake, thought/hoped could choose principal residence. If living in a rental then can't actual owned home be principal residence. Thanks.
