Oh Noooo What a nightmare. Some of those so called immigration specialists need shot, how do they get away with it man.

I agree it is a lot more complex doing it LTBV stylee, but it's such a shame I feel for you.

Didn't Glenda do it this way, (I'm really sorry if you didn't Glenda)? Sounds like it would still probably be viable to get LTBV. Have you thought about getting a straight up business advisor to do business plan that would work anywhere? Surely this would be fairly cheap to do in the scheme of things (I mean you must have a few sheckles).

Alternatively if you REALLY wanna go back to square one, how many points do either of you score on the SMC points indicator on the NZIS website.

Let us know, and I'm really sorry for you, must really disheartening.
