Job offer an advantage for NZ migrants

Having a job offer could play a substantial role in the ability of British migrants to secure a visa and begin a new life in New Zealand. In recent months, a number of Expressions of Interest (EOIs) accepted with a job offer have been increasing, and the number without decreasing, highlighting the importance that the New Zealand Immigration Service places on potential migrants having a job ready upon their arrival. In October, 379 EOIs were selected with a points score of 140 or above. Of these, 312 had a job offer waiting for them in New Zealand, around 82% of applicants. This statistic has continued to increase throughout the year and has put a real emphasis on the importance of obtaining a job offer first.
