Hello everybody,
I have discovered this invaluable forum about New Zealand immigration. Me and my wife have submitted EOI and waiting for selection this week. Although I have checked all information regarding Skilled Migrant category, after reading posts on this forum I have some ambiguities. Like what CO means? By the way what do you think about our chances, we have 135 points, and I as principal applicant have claimed 15 points for experience in area of absolute shortage. Looking at statistics of previous selections I can not understand weather "all those claiming 15 points in area of absolute skills" means that all EOIs in the pool claiming 15 points in area of absolute skills are selected or? How we know if we are selected? We get mail or? Also looking at diagram of process I noticed that there is note that number of approved residencies will be less than ITA issued. How they now that it will be less if all the guys who have been issued ITA provide necessary documents, do they have some additional criteria? Status of my EOI is submitted and payment received, is that confirmation that we are in the pool or there is something more I have to do? Sorry if questions are silly, just I would like to get chance to live at New Zealand . Thanks!!!!
