NEW ZEALAND Immigration for IT Professionals

New Zealand welcomes everyone with relevant qualifications, skills and experience that can contribute to the development of the New Zealand economy. If your occupation appears on theEssential Skills in Demand List for New Zealand occupations, you must not delay to immigrate to New Zealand.

Skilled Migrant Category is the most suitable immigration category that gives you the freedom to live and work in New Zealand permanently. We can help this dream come true for you in the easiest way possible. Given below is the detailed procedure that we follow to help our clients get approval under the skilled migrant category:

Meeting the basic requirements - We assist you in submitting the Expression of Interest (EOI) to enhance your chances of acceptability for minimum NZ immigration requirements. Points at this level are awarded on the basis of your qualification. Besides, some other basic requirements for occupational registration, health, English language ability and character must also be fulfilled.

Selecting EOI - EOIs that successfully claim over 100 points are submitted into the pool. EOI that claimed 140 or above points are selected automatically from this pool, whereas those that have points between 100 and 140 are selectively picked up according to the demands of NZ. Sometimes EOI may remain in the pool for six months. In that case, your EOI is withdrawn from pool and you are notified about the same and we can then assist you in applying with an EOI again. But if Immigration New Zealand did not select any EOIs from the pool at all, your EOI may stay in the pool itself even after six months until the next lot of EOIs is selected.

Official request to apply for residence - In case, you have been lucky enough to get your EOI drawn by INZ (Immigration New Zealand) and your claims are successfully verified, you are then sent an official request to apply for residence. The invitation mentions a period of four months, before which you must apply under the New Zealand`s Skilled Migrant category. We guide you according to the checklist about necessary documents, such as passport, certifications and qualifications that are to be provided, along with duly filled application forms and the applicable fees. We help you in filling the form correctly and assure hassle-free approval of your application.

Complete assessment - Once your application for residence is received, your claims as well as your suitability to stay in NZ are assessed. Sometimes, INZ may also wish to interview you and your dependants. At this time, they may ask about your current support networks, employment prospects and familiarity with the country. Contact us today to know more about the probable interview questions in your case. If INZ is satisfied with your interview, approval to your application is granted. But in case, the officials are not completely satisfied, they may give you a resident permit or visa to come to NZ and see if you could get a skilled job. Your residence application is approved as soon as you get the job. The time period allowed to get a job in NZ is nine months.
Qualifying Criteria

Skilled migrant category enjoys the utmost popularity among all visa classes to get the Permanent Residency status in NZ. NZIS (The New Zealand Immigration Service) currently deals in visas for the skilled migrant category for New Zealand immigration. Skills of the applicant in accordance with their nominated occupation are taken into consideration along with the points that are awarded for several factors.
Applicants must be below 56 years and should earn at least 100 points each in order to be eligible for NZ immigration. However, meeting the prerequisites of the English language, character certificate and health is also mandatory before we lodge your Expression of Interest.

Applications then enter a pool, where the needed number of candidates is selected by NZIS, on the basis of demand of skilled workers in NZ. Aspiring NZ immigrants must be aware of the key selection criteria in order to gain maximum points possible. We can help you a great deal in this regard. Being the industry leaders, we stay updated and work in tandem with the regulations laid by the New Zealand Immigration authorities.
