I don't know if anyone else has found the immigration.govt.nz site rubbish for specific information like this but I certainly have.
Basically the only qualifications they have listed are degrees, does this mean they are the only recognised basic qualification that is critical in the points calculator? Because I thought degrees were generally level 7 wheras the definition for basic qualification is level 3 or 4. In which case, what is level 3 or 4. My Wife has A-Levels and I cave certificates in marketing and higher grade GCSEs but have a horrible feeling these are worthless with regards immigration applications.
