New Zealand, along with Canada and Australia, is one of the countries that actively attract immigrants. The main program that allows an overwhelming number of migrants to enter the country is the so-called "Professional category". The country attracts mainly young, educated people who are able to contribute to the economy of New Zealand and ensure their future.
It is necessary
- - a statement of interest;
- - documents on education;
- - documents confirming work experience;
- - documents confirming financial viability
Instructions
Step 1
If you want to get permanent residence in New Zealand under the professional category program, you should know that it includes two stages:
- In the first step of this category, fill out the special form (expression of interest). Points are awarded for your qualifications, education, age, marital status and wealth. The key point here is the presence of an invitation from any New Zealand company. Consider the possibility of receiving such an invitation;
- At the second stage, the applications of people who have scored a passing score are considered. The documentary confirmation of the information stated earlier in the form of "expression of interest" is checked. Therefore, you should collect the necessary documents, certificates in advance, make copies of the work book and labor contracts. Consideration of an application for this category ends either with a positive decision in favor of granting the applicant the status of a permanent resident of New Zealand. Or a conditional decision is issued, the consideration of which is postponed indefinitely. But at the same time, a work visa is issued, allowing you to find a job in New Zealand, or a decision is made to refuse the status of a permanent citizen of New Zealand.
Step 2
The Business Categories program accepts applications from people who have acquired or started a business in New Zealand. If you consider yourself to be in this category, you will need to confirm your knowledge of the English language, good health, document the origin of your finances that you have invested in a business in the country. The decision to grant permanent residence is made only in case of documentary compliance of the submitted application and the actual state of your business.
Step 3
Applicants in the Investors category are also evaluated on a point-based system. The criteria for assessing are the experience of entrepreneurial activity, age and the possible amount of investment in the country's economy.
Step 4
The most difficult immigration programs are family ones. Therefore, in order to enter the family program, it would be better for you to get advice from lawyers or specialists.
