Hi all,

would be greatful if any one could offer me any advice at all.

I have a job offer to work in a hospital in south cantabery, but have no visa or registration with NZNC as yet.

Not sue what the best process will be.

I am awaiting my police check and then I can send all my documentation to NZNC

However I am unsure what to do about immigration, must have spent 24 hours on NZIS web site and come away dispondant and very confused.

I have a partner of 18 yrs and an 11 yr old son, we really wanted to apply for residency but as I am not yet working in NZ looks as if this is not possible.

We will be moving on my job offer and qualifications, my partner has lots of experience in lots of working environments but no formal quaklifications but he will be willing to do any thing once we get to NZ and our son is settled.

Do we apply for work to residency?
Is my partner abls to do this?
or do we apply for work permits for both of us and a student visa for my son?

my potential employers would like me to start at the end of the yaer but are very understanding and willing to move this date if necessary.

So my question is whats the easiest way to move to and be able to work in NZ with the option to be able to stay there perminately.

Thanks sorry for rambling. :icon_eek: icon_exclaim.gif
