Is 15 bonus points for your combined work experience given last year still awarded?
I got married last Month and would get another 10 points for my partner as she has a diploma. I went onto the Online facility to check for how many points I would get now and it says 130.
I applied for NZ PR previously but it was not successful.
I was just wondering whether the bonus points (points 3 and 4 below) I was given last time still applies at the moment as its not stated in the points calculation. These points would give me the additional points require to reach 140 points.
I would be happy if you can help me out as I want to apply again fr my PR.
Thanks
Attached breakdown of points in last application.
