    Default Final Residency Application Question - Points Change

    My EOI was submitted at 140 (without job offer), and was accepted. A confusion on my part recently knocked me down to 130 points. Do I still have a shot at the residency? Or would I be wasting my money to submit the final application?


    Side question:
    I've been here in NZ for a year as a student working on a master's degree. There's no points to be claimed for this until i graduate or hit 2 year mark?

    I think you do not have much chance of EOI selection if points are below 140 and no job offer.

    Otaku is correct. if you were selected at 140 points and no job offer, then if you submit an application with less points than you were selected at, it will be declined.

    INZ don't accept anything in advance, so you can't count points for the degree until you've actually graduated
