    Default Online EOI

    Currently filling in the an EOI (to twin-track with my talent visa application...) and I think I must be getting tired! I'm not sure what to put in the sections where they require details of family (section T3 I think). Is this any family irrespective of whether they are in NZ or intend to come along with us...ie not just my wife and children but also my parents, brother, sister??

    Anyone remember what they filled in?

    Thanks
    regards
    Richard

    The current form says to list ALL (their capitalization, not mine) biological, adoptive and step parents, siblings and children, unless deceased.

    If I remember correctly, my OH didn't put all his many brothers and sisters 2 years ago when we applied, and it wasn't a problem.

    If it's a a parent or sibling who may later want to move to NZ and list you as a sponsor, I think they have to have been listed on your EOI to be elligible, but I could be wrong about that.

    I think that's correct Jess

    thats exactly right. lisa - you can change yours on your ITA when you get it so dont worry. it makes no difference to you anyway but would make a big difference to close family if they wated to follow you in a few years.

    I think it says somewhere that 'family' is children whether or not they are adopted or step children. There's a link on the form somewhere that clarifies it. We didn't put down brothers/sisters/parents - just our kids. Hope that helps.

    lockstock - if you dont add on your parents/brothers/sisters when you get your ITA then you will make it much harder for them should they ever want to come out to NZ on family sponsorship.

    I emailed them about this. Their reply was:
    'For the 'other family' section, please provide details of your parents and siblings, as well as those for your partner.'
    Hope this helps
