That was a close call. Thank goodness it's all sorted now, but what a load of cr@p. NZIS imply that they are desperate to have skilled people settle in NZ, but, at the same time, still want to play silly games with your application.

. Hope the rest of it now goes without a hitch. Have a great time back in the UK. Would be interesting to hear your impressions of 'the old country' after being in NZ for a while now.
