Hi,
My name is Antonio. I am from Spain, but actually living in Greece. My girlfriend and me want to move to NZ for better opportunities and also because we love the country.
My girlfriend is a psychologist and is going to apply for the registration on the Psychologist Board and maybe she can find a job in Invercargill. She can easily get the PR if everything is going well.
Our question is about the best way for me to go to NZ with her. I am a computer engineer (university degree from Spain) with 7 years working experience as a System Administrator, but also with knowledge in Java, C/C++, .NET and databases. I think I am elegible for a Skilled Migrant Visa. But we are wondering, if she would get a job there, how can I apply to get the PR?. We are together for almost 2 years, but only living together for 1 month.
We are also considering to ask for an official immigration adviser, does anybody recommend us this option? Also I would like to ask about the ICT market in Invercargill. I know that there are not so many IT companies there and I have been searching in seek and trademe and only few positions I have found.
Thank you very much for your time!
Antonio.
