Hi im new to this forum and i have read some of the threads posted on here and wondered if maybe somebody out there could help me.
Im 32 years of age and left school with no qualifications and not knowing what i wanted to do, after many years of doing mundane jobs i decided to travel to New Zealand on a 1 years working holiday visa, it fair to say that i fell in love with the country and wanted to stay but obviously my work visa only allowed me to stay for only 1 year so i had to return home, Since then I have been trying to search for some way that i would be able to go back and stay indefinitley even though i do not have any qualifications and would not even be close to gaining enough points to emigrate,
I know some options for me are to go back to education and train myself up in a job that Nz is in need of but that is not an option due to the time it would take and the fact that i could not give up my job to go back to education for 3 years,
Are there any other options that i have? i.e a fast track way i could gain a qualification that would take less that 3 years or another way or skill that would help me, i am open to any suggestions whatsoever, and would consider anything that would hopefully allow me to start a life in this country
Cheers
