'We're ready to welcome the world back'

Selections under the Skilled Migrant Category are now open again!

Immigration New Zealand has now resumed the selection of Expressions of Interest, EOIs.

The points-based SMC residence visa process had been closed to new applications in April 2020.

After the first selection on 11 November the previous points threshold for selections increases from 160 to 180 points, to better align with the future direction of the Skilled Migrant Category.

EOIs will be selected again on 18 January 2023.

Our Senior Licensed Immigration Adviser Dr. Carsten Hallwass says:

"At NZIC we are excited to see the re-opening of the selection process, as this will finally allow our clients to turn their plans for New Zealand into reality.

A job offer will now be more important than ever to reach the 180 points selection mark."

Anna was worth her weight in gold---she was fantastic at helping me format my CV and search for jobs that suited my skill set.  In the end, I got a great job in a great city.  Carsten and his team were very thorough and helpful when it came time to apply for and get our visas. They are now helping us with our resident visas, and I'm certain that the process will be the same. I'd recommend them highly.

NZIC guided me all the way through getting my first work visa to permanent residency. Their job seeking support was key when I first arrived in NZ, communication was always easy and clear. I'm very thankful for their help and definitely recommend their services.
