On advise of NZ citizens I applied for a community services card and just got it. On it there are certain subsidized services. I was wondering if it would be ok for me to use these services should I require them during my first two years in New Zealand. I don't want to do anything that could jeopardize my permanent residence here. People who have advised me to get this card have been here from decades and may not know what is in my best interest.
Please advise
