Really. I thought only last night and this morning were bad.

Going up there for free accommodation and food. Will see you next weekend though as i am taking occupation of our rental house. Next weekend it is!

So I must admit. Anyone who came over alone while family was back home is stronger than me. If I had money and a good job back home I would be on a plane back already and it has only been one week! On the other hand I have invested too much money to turn back now! Hoping things go better once my family arrive.

Please could you send that to me? I haven't heard any of that!

ok so the Sh*t is starting to hit the fan with so much to do and only 2 days to do it in! Starting to stress big time!!!

i hear you. I can't figure out how they charge so much for a one way ticket. Its nearly the same cost as a return ticket.

They are the most direct but you also pay a premium for that. Got an option via Hong Kong but i don't feel like sitting in the airport for a 12 hour layouver

i fly out on sunday. Wife and kids will fly out the 11 April 2016.

When you flying out patches?

Yeah you can carry the piece of paper around or you have have it pasted into your passport.

Just received my passport back form the NZ consulate and they have forgotten to paste my Visa into my Passport. FML

Thats the best way for them to meet you. They want to know that you are serious about going over.

Wife got confirmation this morning that she got the job she was applying for. The company will even do her work Visa for her.

Jet lag is a real bitch!

might take you up on that!

How did you setup a Trademe account with no NZ address or Tel No?

How did you secure the rental from this side though?

That is proving harder to be than the job offer for me! Finding a place in turning into a nightmare although i do have a viewing setup for thursday. A bit expensive but nice!

Not really. Just got lucky with a job offer.

Fly out tomorrow with the wife for her final interview, Back on sunday and then i am here for a week and then fly back to Auckland for good. Hope the wife doesn't take too long to decide to join me. She is talking about the middle to end o f April.

my uncle and aunt stay up there. I have decided once I have residency I am getting a boat. Always loved boating, but first looking for a car and house

**** just got real. 3 year Work Visa approved. Now to find a place to stay in a hurry!

No they aren't. But PM construction is on the skills shortage list. I am trying to go with Essential skills and have submitted EOI at the same time. Problem is my daughter is in varsity and we only get domestic rates if you have residence. Her fees for this year are R270,000 as n international student!!! But only R50,000 as a resident!

Thats when you try the essential skills route

Project Manager in Construction. I have a job offer but they don't recognise my diplomas that i have. There are ways around it just takes patience.
