Hello guys,

I have got the case officer assigned 5 days ago and she did not ask for any additional documents yet. I know it is too early to say something but a friend of mine at this stage had so many additional things asked from the case officer at this first stage and got her residence just after 2 weeks, that i have started seen it as a good thing. Does anyone have any similar experience to share?

This is to advise that your application has been assigned to me for assessment.

Please remember that you need to remain in New Zealand lawfully whilst your application is being processed."

Thanks =)
