Firstly welcome

May I say this is a great place for getting advise and information. From what you've said, you shouldn't have too many problems with your emigration.

As Taffy said, you will need to get permission to bring your children.

Also, there is no need to use a migration company - we've done it alone and saved a fortune with the help from the people here! Have a good scout around on www.immigration.govt.nz. Fill in their points indicator - ideally you want 140 points, but you can proceed with 100.

One sneaky piece of advise ... after gathering as much information as you can, then contact a migration agent and on the pretence of using them, discuss what routes etc they'd apply etc. I did this, and managed to ascertain where to claim points etc and which categories to put on my EOI.

All the best, and fire away!!

Lou
