    Default Need advise on how to increase EOI points

    Hello

    I have submitted my EOI under SMC last October 5, 2016 at 155 points.
    With the current change in policy, SMC points required increased to 160 points
    which means I can not be included in the fortnightly selection.

    Below is my EOI summary
    Area Points Claimed
    Age 20
    Qualification 50
    LTSSL Qualification 15
    Work Experience 30
    LTSSL Work Experience 10
    Partner's Qualification 20
    Close family in NZ 10
    Total 155 pts

    Please do advise me and help me look for other areas of possibilities where I can increase
    my EOI points and get pooled in EOI fortnightly selection.

    Thanks

    What bad luck, to have submitted just before this change. A skilled job in NZ would give you more points.

    Hello JandM

    Yes you are right. I can increase with a skilled job in NZ.
    I have tried applying to some skilled position in ICT area but I think
    companies in NZ would only accept applicants onsite or with in NZ.
    Companies would not accept overseas applicants like me.
    What would be other options? Is it possible to apply in NZ on a Visitor's Visa?
