    Hi

    Just wondering if someone can advise on wife visa case? I've been going through so many confusions, some suggestions required.

    My wife has done Master in computer application recognized by NZQA , GOT LEVEL 8.
    Her IELTS score is 7 band overall.
    Work experience-2 years and 6 months as a senior system engineer with INFOSYS LTD India.
    Currently looking for a job in Auckland.
    She is in Auckland on partnership work visa .

    Can she apply her residency on Point based system while in NZ?? If yes how ??

    Any advise would be highly appreciated.

    Thanks Heaps !

    So you and your wife are now both working in Auckland, right? If she can find a skilled job in NZ, she can apply for resident visa under SMC.

    Even if her job is not in IT field, but it's in the Skilled Occupation list nevertheless, she can still apply.

    For example, ICT sales rep is eligible for SMC even though it doesn't require a lot of technical hardcore IT stuff (coding, programming, C++ etc)
