Hi Group,

I'm in a bit of a funny situation.

My partner is an exotic dancer here in Auckland. After looking into skilled occupations, her job does qualify as it is a subsection with Actors, Dancers, and Other Entertainers.

She earns more than enough money to shattered anything immigration could question in terms of wages; however, due to the nature of her work she is unable to secure a contract with a fixed salary compenent, which is causing us some problems.

Has anyone ever qualified for a work or residence visa under this job classification? Arguably we could look for another job that would have a fixed or hourly wage compentent. But, I'm really unsure how to go about this as the entertainment industry seems to be a bit all over the place with this kinda thing.

If anyone has any ideas, they'd be more than welcome as this is really frustrating as we're ticking all the boxes aside from this.
