Immigration Services -Obtaining Permanent Residency(PR)
For many years we provided immigration advice and processing help to Offshore Candidates seeking Work Permits. Since May 2009 All immigration Advisers here in New Zealand have to be licenced.
We can still help you with immigration in a number of ways See Below*
Obtaining Permanent Residency(PR) - Skilled migrant
This is a points based system. Points are gained in the following 4 sections
- Qualifications
- Work experience
- Job offer or in employment.
- Age
Evidence of good health and character must also be provided as
with the work permit.
Minimum standard
of English ( No Points given Mandatory to achieve above 6.5)
(a) A recent ELTS Certificate with an overall band score of
6.5 or above
(b) Evidence that you have spent at least 3 years attending an English speaking
school
(c) Proof that you have been employed for 12 months in NZ in a role that requires
you to speak English
(d) Other proof that you are a competent user of English
- 1. Qualifications
(a) A recognized
basic qualification (e.g. trade qualification, bachelors degree
or diploma
(b) A recognized post-graduate qualification
*We recommend that you have your overseas qualifications assessed
by NZ qualifications Authority
(with the exception of English City & Guilds)
- 2. Work experience
Work experience - Points may be earned for every 2 years you spend working using your qualification both overseas or in NZ
- 3. Job offer or in employment.
Ideally this will be the job you secured to get the work permit. Or worst case scenario is a similar job utilising the same skill set and qualifications. The safest bet is to stay in your original job un till you have completed your Permanent Residency application successfully.
- 4. Age
Age - You must be between 20 and 55 years old
*Exclusions from the definition of “immigration advice”
The definition of immigration advice in section 7 of the Act specifically excludes:
- providing information that is publicly available, or that has been prepared or made available by the Department of Labour;
- directing a person to the Minister of Immigration, the Department of Labour, an immigration officer, a visa officer, a refugee status officer or a list of licensed immigration advisers;
- carrying out clerical work, translation or interpreting services.
- Immigration New Zealand have completed a series of fact sheets that cover all the main skilled migrant policies [opens in a new window], and these can be passed onto migrant candidates to enable them to make an informed decision about which policy option to take.
- Passing these fact sheets on does not constitute giving 'immigration advice'
- Also have a look at Immigration New Zealand's FAQ section on their web site [opens in a new window].
