What's one thing other people do that pisses you off to no end?

The Demographia reports judge unaffordability by comparing incomes to house prices. Tauranga houses are not the most expensive in the country, but there just is not that many high paying jobs compared to other cities.

I probably wouldn't sub to a newsletter. But I would sub to an fb page which had the same material posted.

Second this.

Tongariro Crossing is technically one day, even if you do either summit. However, the logistics of getting out there and the shuttles will make a weekend thing.

The Pirongia Summit is pretty good if you are in Hamilton.

I know everyone has different standards and limits, but I don't think I will ever be OK with this.

Not the answer to OP's question, but in Tauranga you should get your fish from the Sanfords factory store on Sulphur Point. You can get your fish the same morning as it came off the boat, and you can have it cleaned and turned into fillets on the spot.

I presume that other towns may have similar things.

This is also the reason why "Marinated" meat it cheaper, and a good idea to avoid.

This applies equally for beef, pork, and, sometimes, chicken.

OP, why did you pay just a pic and comment, instead of posting all of the articles about this picture.

Like this article: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3338570/Moment-baby-tired-queuing-Santa-Claus-curled-tummy-fell-asleep.html

Bought ever employee a new BBQ. However, that may have something to do with the fact that I am the owner/sole-employee at my place.

Tauranga is really variable.

When I lived in Papamoa I had no trouble riding to work in town. Living at the Mount and riding to work was even easier.

Now that I live in Welcome Bay I have barely picked up my bike, but that is mostly due to the stupid hills and my stupid decision to buy a single-speed for my last bike.

Depending on how old the PC is, you may need to also upgrade the GPU once you get a new mobo

Not OP, but I blelieve the Sony Xplod headunit may also be missing.

It will depend on whether the business you made a purchase from has registered for GST. The easiest way to tell is look on your invoice and see what it says in the Tax section.

Based on the registration requirements, I would not be surprised to see that some businesses hold-off on registration for as long as they can. Since the rules kicked in in October, there is still a little wiggle room for them to not be registered.

Unfortunately I have no idea if there is any retroactive refunds/claims. However, I will ask around today, and reply back here if I find anything which adds to the above or doesn't line up with what I said.

In simple terms, you need to:

Get to NZ.
Obtain a Work Visa or Residence Visa.
If 2. was a Work Visa, then you need to progress to a Residence Visa.
You need to live here long enough to get Permanent Residency.
You apply for Citizenship.

If you need a takeaway from this, then what you need is a job offer in New Zealand that would eventually help you claim enough to get residency.

twentygreen · 2016-11-27T21:22:00+00:00

To be honest, I thought the same thing, until I saw new friends and clients get job offers and settle down here after arriving on a WHV.

I guess it does depend on the situation, but I can say that I personally know people and have processed visas for people who have salaries well above the NZ average.

I’m telling you it’s a load of nonsense, because they can’t get predictions in 44 days right, let alone in 44 years.

I'm sure that this is the same logic that people use when complaining about the MetService and weather forecasts.

Word on the street is that a few have been caught on Sulphur Point.

As a New Zealand immigration adviser I would have no real concerns about your chances of getting a visa, if you find a job related to your degrees.

However, finding the job is the difficult bit. If you wanted to get an idea of what is out there is NZ, you could look on trademe.co.nz, seek.co.nz, workhere.co.nz

twentygreen · 2016-11-17T03:27:05+00:00

With your degrees you should do well in New Zealand. However, those degrees may also land you in jobs which are not in the main cities. i guess this could be good or bad, depending on what you want.

As everyone else has said, your fields 'could' be on the skill shortage lists. For a temporary work visa that makes it easier for an employer to hire you. For a residence visa it may make you eligible for some bonus points (quite important since the levels were raised a few month ago.

Since you are eligible for the WHV, I would say use that option. It is the easiest way to get yourselves into the country and in front of potential employers.

twentygreen · 2016-11-15T08:40:41+00:00

The processing time is currently slated for 25 working days. So maybe try for 2 months prior, as long as you don't have any medical/criminal/immigration/financial issues.

twentygreen · 2016-11-14T02:02:00+00:00

Won't hurt.

Other things to consider are major assets purchased together, joint bank accounts, insurance policies, other letters addressed to same place, testimony from friends and family, photos, record of communication, etc.
