    Question SMC Residency Application

    Hi there.
    with my partner we are looking to applying for residency this year with 150 points.
    we have consulted an adviser who told us that the salary would be a questionable fact on the process.

    We have applied and been granted a Work visa under the job, Maintenance Planner, which salary is 55k a year working 47.5 hr a week.
    My partner has a level 7 (Mechanical Engineer Degree) but his job is not entirely related to his degree. he also has 2.5 years experience in the above role (1+ being in NZ)

    when we go to carrers.gov, Maintenance Planner its not there, so we have no idea what it is the appropriate minimum wage rate for that role.
    Does anyone know where to find this, and if, for your experience, would be really hard to get the residency approved?

    thanks

    Engineering maintenance: median pay $65k, ranging from $39k to $130k.
    Your partner's base salary if converted to 40 hours per week would be: $55,000/47.5x40 = $46,316

    From career website try that one: https://www.careers.govt.nz/searchr…
