Hi

Does anyone know if it would be possible for me to gain residence if I were to buy a Bed & Breakfast type business. I have about 500,000 NZ Dollers to spend after I have paid for our hairy dog to come with us. I have good IT skills but not those that are on skills shortage list. I am also a single parent (34) of two kids (9 and 14). Any advice greatly appreciated.

Also my parent want to come too if we go....they are retired and have more money to bring than us. Would they be able to emmigrate first and we go on the back of them or vise versa.

Thanks for any advice - we are desparate for a new start..
